Perpignan

Perpignan is primarily served by Perpignan–Rivesaltes Airport. It's located near the town of Rivesaltes, just north of Perpignan. The airport handles both domestic flights within France and international flights. The cheapest and fastest way to get into the town is by hopping on a bus run by Sankeo — Perpignan's public transportation company. The bus ride to the city will take about 25 minutes. There is also a taxi rank just outside the terminal, a faster, but more expensive way to get into the city. The trip, in this case, takes about 10 minutes.

Sankéo operates the public transport system within the Perpignan Metropolitan Region. They have expanded their services by not only increasing bus frequencies but also by introducing innovative and eco-friendly transport options like the Bus-tram and the P'tit Bus. The network boasts three primary bus lines operating at 10-15 minute intervals, supplemented by P'tit Bus shuttles. For nocturnal travellers, there's a dedicated night service. And if you're navigating the Old Town, hop on the P’tit bus — a free shuttle service available every 7 minutes, excluding Sundays and bank holidays. You can also use the Sankéo mobile application to take advantage of their customised transport offers.
