Nice Côte d'Azur Airport, International airport in Nice, France
Nice Côte d'Azur sits right on the Mediterranean coast and covers several square kilometers west of the city of Nice. The facility includes two parallel runways and three passenger terminals for arrivals and departures.
Operations officially started in 1944 and the airport later grew into one of the main aviation centers in the country. Its expansions and technical upgrades accompanied the rising tourism along the Côte d'Azur.
The facility takes its name from the coastal region and welcomes travelers from around the world in a modern setting by the Mediterranean. Its terminals show the connection between regional character and international traffic.
Connections to the city center run directly on the tram line, while helicopter services to Monaco operate on a regular schedule. The terminals sit close together and are clearly marked for connecting flights and other transport options.
This facility is the first climate-neutral airport in France and reaches that status through comprehensive environmental initiatives. The coastal location often gives passengers views directly over the Mediterranean during takeoff or landing.
