Best/Cheapest Way to get to Nice Airport
 
Hello!

I'm going to be flying out of the Nice airport to Rome in July and my flight leaves at 9:30. We will be staying in Nice in a home (airbnb) that is near the Opera-Vielle Ville tram stop (nearish the city center).

Since my flight is early I'm nervous about public transportation, but I would like to avoid paying the expensive cab fair if possible so I'm open to public transport.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get to the airport, how long it would take, and also at what time you think we should arrive at the airport?

Thank you so much!!

Nicole

Take bus 98 to the airport at "Bermond" stop. The first bus is at 5.20 am. Ticket costs €6 and you can buy it from the bus driver.

Do you know roughly how long that would take to get to that airport?

For travel time, use the same link Pvoyageuse provided. See the "<< Début" symbol at the top left edge of the bus stop time stamps? Click that. It brings up the schedule at the beginning of the day.

Hi Nicole
We took that bus ourselves last August, and all worked out perfectly. Di
