Nice



Get in By plane


Thanks to the EU, deregulation and its popularity, Nice is served by a number of most European Discount Airlines apart from Ryanair as well as the standard flag carriers such as Air France, BA and Lufthansa. The local carrier - Air Littoral - is probably bankrupt and has a terrible reputation amongst frequent flyers (its nickname just adds a C to the front). The failure of this airline is likely to make little difference in terms of international destinations but will probably reduce the number of destinations directly served within France.information Malaga Airport car hire , information Faro Airport car hire , information Lisbon Airport car hire ,
Nice Airport is one of the busiest in France and has direct flights to most major cities in Europe as well New York and a number of destinations in North Africa and the Middle East. As the home of the jetset, magnificent private jets belonging to Arab Sheikhs and others are often visible in the summer. The Airport is located at the western end of Nice on landfill. Arrival and departure in good weather often provides beautiful views of the French Riviera. information Barcelona Airport car hire , information Madrid Airport car hire , information Bilbao Airport car hire, Alicante car hire , Malaga car hire ,

Most airlines use Terminal 1 (the older terminal) with Terminal 2 used primarily by Air France (and partners) and Easyjet. There is a free shuttle bus between the terminals. There is a special hotel shuttle bus serves other hotels within Nice itself.

By train


There is no direct train service, however there is a bus that travels to Nice station frequently and from there you can of ocurse take a train wherever the train goes. A cheaper and less frequent bus also goes to St Laurent du Var station, this may be convenient for local destinations.

By bus


There are coaches from Nice Airport to most places between Marseilles and Genoa as well as city buses within Nice and its surroundings. The airport website has a page with links to timetables and prices which tend to change.

Get around By Car


Best access is by car from the A8 autoroute. The Airport is well signed from the A8 and the A8 well signed from the airport. Just make sure that you know which direction you need to go when getting on the A8 and which terminal when leaving. Especially in the morning and evening rush hour do allow extra time to deal with accidents and traffic jams. The A8 has a ferocious bend just by the airport and accidents are frequent. car hire in Spain , Valencia car hire , Murcia car hire car hire,
Driving a car on the Riviera is only for the brave, the region has one of the worst accident records in France (which is saying something) and every local has his or her favourite story about a mad driver. However all major car rental firms, as well as some less well known ones such as easycar and ADA, are present. Most are located by terminal 2 however easycar is located just off site near terminal 1. If you have a choice try to pick a car that is already well dinged so that no one notices the new dings and scratches you will add.car hire uk, car hire spain, hire car

By Taxi


Nice taxi drivers are notorious for ripping off foreigners. Insist on the meter being on the whole time and try and sit where you can see it so that you can immediately query the driver when/if it goes off "accidentally". Taxi fares within Nice should be less than ?20, Antibes ?50 and Monaco or Cannes should result in fares of approx ?70.
