Nimes airport

Post by Sus »

We recently flew from Nîmes to Luton and it was an all round great experience. The drive is all on the motorway, you do need to allow some extra time for the building work around Montpellier, but otherwise very straight forward. Parking is right next to the terminal, if you stay longer, remember to pay for a 1, 2 etc weeks in advance at the parking office before you leave. You need to bring your carte grise or proof of ownership and will get a slip of paper which you can change for a card to exit the garage when getting back.
The airport is quick to get through and had good facilities including wifi.

We had booked a train to get to London from Luton and thought that the shuttle bus to the train station was included, only to be told that our train ticket only started at the train station not the airport, so it was an extra 2 quid per person, which is rather steep for a journey of less than 10min. When I later checked, it appears that single tickets should be 1.60 ?!? At any rate, it was our oversight as you can also book train tickets starting at Luton airport rather than Luton airport parkway so that the shuttle is included.
