🏢 Terminal Information
Avignon – Provence Airport (AVN) serves the historic city of Avignon and the beautiful Provence region of France. This regional airport primarily handles general aviation, business flights, and seasonal commercial passenger services, often operated by low-cost carriers connecting to various European cities. It functions as a convenient gateway for tourists exploring the cultural and natural attractions of Provence. The terminal building is a small, functional structure, designed to efficiently process passengers for its moderate flight schedule, providing a streamlined and intimate travel experience.\n\nSecurity screening at AVN adheres to French aviation standards. Passengers can expect efficient processing through security checkpoints, which include baggage scanning and personal checks. Due to the airport's modest size and flight volume, wait times are typically minimal. All flights depart from a single gate area, and boarding is usually conducted via a short walk across the tarmac to the aircraft. For the limited international flights, basic border control is in place, but comprehensive customs facilities for complex cargo are not a primary feature.\
\nAmenities within the terminal are limited but adequate for short waits. There is usually a small café offering beverages and light snacks, along with restrooms. Passengers will not find extensive dining or retail options beyond these basics. For ground transportation, major car rental agencies have desks conveniently located within the terminal building, and taxi services are generally available outside. A shuttle bus service connects the airport to Avignon city center and the TGV train station, providing easy access to the region. The airport's charm lies in its simplicity and its direct link to the heart of Provence.

🏢 Terminal Information
L’Alpe d’Huez Altiport (AHZ, LFHU) is a mountain airfield serving the ski resort above Bourg‑d’Oisans in the French Alps. It features a short, sloped runway and operates primarily for general aviation, helicopter transfers, and seasonal charter activity rather than scheduled airline service. A small chalet‑style terminal/FBO sits beside the apron and provides pilot/passenger services.\n\nThe layout is compact. Parking is next to the terminal, with a 1–2 minute walk to the lobby. From the terminal to parked aircraft on the apron is a short, escorted walk—usually under a minute depending on stand position. There are no buses or jet bridges; all access is ground‑level.\n\nThere is no commercial TSA‑style screening and no on‑site immigration/customs. International arrivals must route via a designated airport of entry elsewhere in France or the EU and reposition. Mountain operations are weather‑sensitive; winter conditions, wind, and visibility can delay or curtail flights.\n\nAmenities include a pilot lounge/briefing space, restrooms, and Wi‑Fi when staffed; food and retail are in the resort village nearby. Helicopter services and winter support (de‑icing as available) can be arranged through the operator. Ground transport includes resort shuttles, pre‑booked taxis, and rental cars obtained in the valley or resort per arrangement.\n\nAccessibility is step‑free between parking and the terminal; staff can assist as needed. Family facilities are limited at the altiport—travelers should bring baby supplies and snacks, and plan for alpine weather when moving between buildings and aircraft.
