The 7.40 to Chambery can't come quick enough! What is the airport like on a Sunday? Got a few hours to burn before the transfer... anything good to do kicking about? Bars?

You jest of course,its a flying field,not an airport,having said that,they were modernising last time I went,I dont remember seeing anything of any interest in arrivals,always been straight to transfer,take a book and a bottle I'm afraid!

Last year there was a kiosk selling sandwiches - I'd say it's 50/50 whether that extends to alcoholic beverage. It really is a field and a portacabin job - but on the plus side the bags come through very quickly.
Bon. Allez!

On the plus side,they handled 200,000 passengers last year,a record since it opened,that's 548 people per day average,you may be lonely!
