Lyon International Airport is named after the famous and mysterious French writer and pilot Antoine de Saint-Exupery, who was born in this ancient city. Every year, nearly 10 million passengers arrive through this air gate to the culinary and cultural center of France, in which the elegant Gothic buildings of the Middle Ages harmoniously combine with flowering promenades and noisy bars. Thanks to the Bookincar service, you can rent a car from the rental leaders and visit not only large cities, but also its surroundings. A rental car is a great choice for those who want to explore the mesmerizing valley of the richest French river Rhone, the clear rows of Beaujolais vineyards and enjoy the panoramas that open from the high peaks of the French Alps.

Until 1975, the Rhône-Alpes region served the small airport of Lyon-Bron, but it ceased to cope with the increasing passenger flow. The current Lyon airport terminal ranks fourth in terms of passenger traffic after Paris-based Charles de Gaulle, Orly and Nice Airport. Three terminals are equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable flight waiting: in the extensive waiting rooms there is wireless Internet, in duty-free shops you can buy souvenirs to remember the trip, and in many cafes and restaurants you can have lunch while the children spend time on the playground.

You can quickly get to the city center and other areas by express, departing from a stop at the exit every half hour. Buses to major major cities and ski resorts also regularly depart from exits from the terminals - departure times can be found on the website and in the terminal building itself. Not far from the air harbor there is a railway station, from which trains leave for major economic and cultural centers of France several times a day.
