Flying in Avignon: the local context

Avignon's sky is shared between Avignon-Provence airport to the south-east, the Pujaut airfield to the north-west and a mistral that blows hard down the Rhône valley: weather windows require serious planning. The walled old town, UNESCO-listed, is dense and heavily touristed — built-up-area scenario and morning slots recommended, with reinforced restrictions during the July festival.

Demand is driven by world-famous heritage — the Popes' Palace, the Avignon bridge, the Rocher des Doms — by Côtes du Rhône wine growing (Châteauneuf-du-Pape fifteen kilometres away, a big buyer of estate imagery), by festival events and by Provençal real estate between the Rhône and the Luberon.
