Lyon is served primarily by Lyon–Saint Exupéry (LYS), the region’s international hub handling most long-haul and network carrier flights, and the smaller Lyon–Bron and Saint-Exupéry satellite facilities that cater more to general aviation and some low-cost services. Saint-Exupéry is about 25 km east of the city center; typical transfer options include the Rhônexpress tram (around 30–40 minutes, with fares usually in the low–mid range), regional trains and taxis (30–45 minutes, fares varying by service). The airport tends to host a mix of legacy carriers and growing low-cost routes, so prices can be competitive depending on season. Pros: good rail link and broad route network; cons: transfer times can be longer than at inner-city airports and fares vary by operator.

Bordeaux–Mérignac (BOD) is the city’s main international airport and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, making it both a gateway for long-haul connections and a budget-friendly option for European routes. The terminal sits about 11–12 km west of Bordeaux’s center; road transfers usually take 20–40 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic, and fares can typically range from modest to mid-level for the distance. Public transport options include regular shuttle buses and regional buses that take roughly 30–45 minutes for a lower-cost alternative. Pros: compact layout and straightforward procedures; cons: fewer late-night services and less urban public-transit integration than some capital-city hubs.
