Nice at 6:30 am...how have you gotten to the airport that early?

All my guidebooks give me the bus to Nice when I arrive at a decent hour...but I can't find how to Leave at that hour...I'm thinking I need to be at the airport no later than 5:00 am, I'd feel better at 4:30 I suppose and I don't want to sleep in the airport! <GRIN>

If you left Nice by air, how did you get there. Taxi's running? Is the bus?

We arranged a car through our hotel. I'm sure yours can do the same. Good luck!

I don't think any buses are running that early. I had to take a taxi the one time that I had an early flight. Cost was 35€ about 4 years ago.

If you are staying in Nice, let the hotel order a taxi. At that time of the morning it will take you no more than 15 minutes to get to the airport from the center of Nice.

Bus timetable No.98

1st bus of the day leaves Riquier at 05h20, should arrive around 06h00. Probably you would not want to arrive that late.

Find a taxi company online, and arrange for them to pick you up on the morning of your flight.

I took a taxi, I was staying in a fairly central hotel and the airport is right there, so it didn't cost much.
