Lyon-Saint Exupéry (LYS) is the region’s main international gateway, serving a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines with frequent connections across Europe and some long-haul routes. Located about 20–25 km east of central Lyon, the airport can be reached by Rhônexpress tram in roughly 30 minutes (ticketed shuttle fares usually fall in a moderate range) or by car/taxi in around 25–40 minutes depending on traffic. Regional buses and car hire are also common options. Pros: good international connectivity and a range of services; cons: transfer times to the city can be longer than inner-city airports and peak traffic may add delay. Lyon-Bron (LYN), historically a business and general aviation airfield, typically handles private flights, charters, and some specialist services rather than regular scheduled commercial traffic. It’s much closer to the city center—around 10 km east—making it a convenient choice for private or corporate travellers seeking quick access. Ground transport is mostly by car or taxi; public transport options are limited. Pros: proximity and quieter operations; cons: not suitable for standard scheduled commercial flights and fewer passenger facilities compared with the main airport.
