Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (French: Aéroport Nice Côte d'Azur) (IATA: NCE, ICAO: LFMN) is an airport located 3.2 NM (5.9 km; 3.7 mi) southwest[2] of Nice, in the Alpes-Maritimes départment of France. The airport is positioned 7 km (4 mi) west of the city centre, and is the principal port of arrival for passengers to the Côte d'Azur. It is the third busiest airport in France after Charles de Gaulle International Airport and Orly Airport, both serving Paris. It is located on the western end of the Promenade des Anglais, near l'Arénas and has two terminals. Due to its proximity to the Principality of Monaco, it also serves as the city-state's airport, with helicopter service linking the principality and airport.[4] Some airlines market Monaco as a destination via Nice Airport.[5]

The Chamber of Commerce and the Nice Côte d'Azur industry operate the airport.[citation needed] The airport's director is Hervé de Place, director of the Côte d'Azur airports, which includes Côte d'Azur International Airport's cousin airport, Cannes-Mandelieu. In 2010, 9,603,014 passengers travelled through the airport,[6] a number that increased to 10,422,073 for 2011.[3] Nice Côte d'Azur Airport also serves as a hub for Air France.

Services

The two airport terminals are linked by courtesy shuttle buses that also connect the car parks with the terminals. A business center is located at Terminal 1 containing eight rooms and a conference room with a capacity of 250 people. There are eight car parks,[citation needed] from "kiss & fly" to long term.

Buses go between the airport and the Nice railway station. Near the airport (10 minutes by foot) is the train station Nice-Saint-Augustin.

Capacity

The airport covers an area of over 3.70 km2 (1.43 sq mi), with 2.70 km2 (1.04 sq mi) used by its two parallel runways and the used by two passenger terminals and a freight terminal.
