Flights to Avignon - from the UK, Ireland and continental Europe
Flights to Avignon don't amount to much at the moment, except for one flight with FlyBe to Southampton of all places.
However, Avignon is well placed on major motorways to mae it a good place to enter Languedoc. Nimes is only about 30 minutes away, and Montpellier 1 hour. A TGV train station in Avignon means you can fly here, and then take the train to any of Languedoc's coastal cities quite easily.
Avignon Airport
Avignon Airport is called the 'Aéroport de Châteaublanc' and is situated 10km south east of the city. It's small (and so very easy to get through) and has 300 parking spaces. Strangely, there doesn't seem to be any public transport linking the airport and city.
Airport Shuttle: There are no airport shuttle busses to and from Avignon airport.
Taxis: Leave from the Arrivals Hall exit. Ask about prices before you get in - to stop them ripping you off, as they often do! It should cost about €22 to the centre of Avignon. Or call 04 90 82 20 20 to order a taxi.
