Getting to Carcassonne airport
Due to the airshow, significant traffic disruption is expected around the airport on 26 and 27 September, with several roads closed to traffic. We strongly recommend allowing extra travel time and planning your journey in advance to ensure you arrive at the airport in good time for your flight.
Access to the airport will only be possible via the route shown on the map below. Only the route highlighted in yellow will provide access to the airport and is reserved exclusively for passengers holding a valid flight booking.
Getting to Perpignan airport
Passengers who prefer may travel directly to Perpignan–Rivesaltes Méditerranée Airport by their own means to avoid the traffic disruption around Carcassonne Airport. In this case, we recommend arriving at Perpignan Airport at least two hours before your flight's scheduled departure time.
