🏢 Terminal Information
Ajaccio – Napoleon Bonaparte Airport (AJA) serves Corsica from a single terminal that handles both Schengen and non‑Schengen traffic. Landside, the departures hall includes airline check‑in counters and kiosks; after security, passengers reach an airside concourse with gates for domestic/Schengen flights and a controlled area for non‑Schengen services. Arrivals proceed to baggage claim and the public exit on the lower level.\n\nWalking distances are modest. From curb or parking to check‑in is typically 2–4 minutes. From security to the nearest gates takes about 3–5 minutes; to the farthest stands, 6–8 minutes. There are no inter‑terminal transfers. Signage is provided in French, Corsican, and English; wayfinding distinguishes Schengen/non‑Schengen flows.\n\nSecurity screening is centralized before departures, with summer‑peak waits around 10–25 minutes. Non‑Schengen departures clear exit passport control after security, while non‑Schengen arrivals clear immigration before baggage claim and pass customs on exit.\n\nAmenities include cafés/bars with local specialties, convenience and souvenir shops, car‑rental counters, ATMs, and quiet/prayer spaces. A small lounge may operate for eligible passengers. Free Wi‑Fi is usually available, though performance can vary during holiday peaks.

🏢 Terminal Information
Auxerre-Branches Aerodrome (AUF) serves the city of Auxerre and the surrounding Yonne department, nestled in the heart of France's renowned Burgundy wine region. This general aviation airport primarily supports private pilots, flight training, and corporate aircraft, providing essential air access for local businesses and tourism, particularly for the wine industry. It does not host scheduled commercial passenger services; travelers typically utilize larger regional airports or Paris for commercial flights. The airport features a modest administrative building that acts as the control center and Fixed Base Operator (FBO) facility.\n\nOperational procedures at AUF are typical of a small aerodrome. There are no security checkpoints, baggage handling systems, or traditional boarding gates. Pilots communicate directly with the ground staff for clearances and information. The airport operates under visual flight rules (VFR) for most operations, with instrument approaches also available. It is a quiet, efficient facility designed for the convenience of general aviation users, offering quick turnaround times for private aircraft. Due to its location, private flights often link to other European general aviation airfields or larger French hubs.\n\nAmenities at Auxerre-Branches Aerodrome are limited to those supporting aviation activities. The FBO typically provides aircraft fueling, a pilot lounge, and flight planning resources. While there are no on-site restaurants or extensive retail shops within the terminal, the airport is a short drive from Auxerre, which offers a wide array of dining, accommodation, and cultural attractions. During the busy wine season, it is advisable to pre-arrange ground transportation as local taxi demand can be high. The aerodrome provides a picturesque and convenient gateway to the beautiful Burgundy countryside.
