Nice Terminal One - Superloo!

    Everyones gone to the loo!
    by NiceLife
    My "warnings and dangers" highlights the dire state of
    French public (in)conveniences.

    National pride at stake, having lost the Olympics, France intends to show the world a clean pair of, er, cheeks.Exasperating contradictory people they are, the French have installed the ultimate super-loos, in Nice Airport.

    Far from the expected missing loo seat and absence of paper, I was pleasantly suprised. All seemed in place - but what followed was pure science fiction. After use, a robot arm emerges from the wall and clamps down onto the loo-seat ,kerchunk, click . I watched in amazement as the O-ring shaped seat silently revolved 360 degrees, a micro-spray cleaning and disinfecting everything in its path, zzzzkerchunk, done. Germs be afraid, very afraid. A high pressure powerflush double blast then followed, ensuring everything porcelain was gleaming white and pristine. Crikey, what next? Is a laser beam going to mistake me for a germ and - pppfftzzz - I'm toast?

    As you approach the handbasin, "the tap knows you are there". Move your hands towards water and water flows, perfect temperature. Take your hand away, it stops. Military grade precision movement sensors.

    I emerged into the terminal waiting area, cleansed, refreshed, and not a little shocked, . Revenge for Waterloo: Watercloset! The French have really excelled themselves this time. Merde!

    The Nice International Airport (the second largest in France) is served by direct flights to and from America, major European cities and North Africa. The Nice airport has two terminals - Terminal 1 (international flights) and Terminal 2 (European and domestic = French flights). A free shuttle-bus provides service between the two terminals and the parking lots. The shuttle-bus runs every 8 minutes during peak hours and every 15 minutes at other times.

    Nice airport is the second largest in France and specially designed to make life for the easyJet traveller hard.

    easyJet passengers use Terminal 2, the latest of the two terminals an at first glance is an impressive circular building.

    Unfortunately the unfriendly attitude of the French towards foreign tourists who provide their bread and butter starts at the airport.

    The first stop is the passport check where staffing levels are fixed at a level that is inversely proportional to the numbers of planes arriving. Apart from the jostling for position in the ‘queues’, much frustration is felt by those who have hand luggage only to save time, when they see through the glass partition the luggage for their flight on the carousel. Those with luggage watch anxiously as there precious load goes round and round while suspicious looking individuals are obviously looking for loot.

    The usual realisation, that the boorish family with disruptive children that you deliberately avoided by joining the furthest queue for the passport check is rapidly progressing while your own seems to be at a standstill, reminds you of the pleasures to come at French supermarket checkouts.

    At least the anticipation of the holiday in Nice blunts the frustration, but the return journey is not blessed with such excitement.

    I have carefully checked the prices of goods in the airport with those in England and can vouch for the savings to be made – by buying at home! I cannot understand why these shops seem to flourish when they sell packs of ten Toblerones for the price of twenty in Tesco. I assume that it is the last desperate action of those wanting to take a gift home, a noble gesture when foreign travel was rare, but hardly necessary when several annual trips by the donor and the recipient are made.

    It is axiomatic that all airport lounge seats are uncomfortable, information non existent and refreshment facilities poor, but Terminal 2 reaches new levels especially with Bar du Monde, where water is dearer than beer and short-changing blatant.

  • We reached Nice by plane from Stuttgart. Easy travel, about 1hr 15mins flight time. At the Airport you can hop on Bus 23, wich goes to Nice main station. Costs are 1.30EUR, wich is very cheap. Duration ~30mins. Leaving from platform 9 I think (end of the terminal). Another busline (98) goes there directly, costs 4.50EUR (incl. one-day-ticket for all bus lines), duration ~15mins. Leaving from platform 2.

    By bus or car. Cycling can be dangerous here, because the roads are very busy and steap, because of all the mountains.

    Nice Cote d'Azur Airport. Located 7km (4m) west of the town centre. : The airport has banks, currency exchange facilities and ATMs in both Terminals. Terminal 1 has a full service post office, pharmacy and medical centre, and doctors on call 24 hours a day (by dialling 13 on any courtesy phone). Restaurants, cafeterias and bars are also available in both Terminals, as are gifts shops, newsagents and duty-free shopping.
    The airport has good road links to Nice, Monaco and Italy via the Promenade des Anglais, to Cannes and Antibes on the Autoroute (motorway) A8, RN (national road) 98, or RN 7, and to Digne and Grenoble on RN 202. Buses (tel: 4 93 21 30 83) provide connections of varying frequency to all the main towns on the Riviera and in south-east France including Nice (every 15 minutes), Monaco, Cannes, Toulon (two per day), Aix-en-Provence, Marseille and Avignon. Taxis (tel: 4 93 13 78 78) are readily available to all destinations, located outside both Terminals; motorway tolls may be added to your fare. SNCF national train services run to and from the airport every 30 minutes from Cannes Gare St Laurent du Var and every 45 minutes from Nice (Gare Nice Ville). Helicopter transfers to Cannes and St. Tropez can be arranged at the airport. Car ferries from Nice's central port to various towns in Corsica depart three times a day during the height of the summer season and five times a week during the rest of the year.

  • The best suggestion is to rent a car in Nice - you can collect it from the car rental counter at the car rental counter at the Nice International airport.
