The problem was with Bezier is that the runway was too short for the aircraft operated by most carriers. If the runway has not been lengthened then I suspect it will stay a rumour. But in any event the area is well served with three airports used by low cost carriers all within an hour of Bezier and a fourth at Nimes 30 minutes further on. Baz    Report

So no 'confirmed' flights yet but they will be touting for business, a case of watch this space I think!! Kira Kira III Busy, busy, busy!    Report

This information is from official Chamber of Commerce publications that I picked up at the airport last week.  Reading between the lines, I would guess that it's Ryanair (bases in UK and Germany), so watch for announcements.    Report
