Options move all around.
I will say that BCN is a great city to spend some time in. Have done it before and after cruises.
Another option for flight is Madrid. We did that recently to take a coach on a 767 to ATL. Having the 2 seats on one side are not bad vs biz where you do not sit together.
Train between BCN and Madrid is easy.
As to Athens... not sure about there, but flights between some cities in Europe can be cheap. On the trip below, we are doing our only paid flight from Venice to Berlin for $88 each on Alitalia.
By the way, I am TOTALLY with you on getting there the day before for a cruise.
