By Plane
The whole region is well-served by both low-cost and large airlines.Perpignan, Carcassonne, Toulouse and Girona are the main airports serving our area with flights often so cheap that all you pay are the taxes.
Airport parking in some of the smaller airports is extremely reasonable too. More and more airlines are finally waking up to the fact that not everybody lives near Gatwick, Stansted or Heathrow and are putting routes on from Liverpool, Manchester, Blackpool, Glasgow, Bristol and Bournemouth. Ryanair fly from many UK airports to Perpignan, Carcassonne, Montpelier and Girona. Flybe to Perpignan and Toulouse. Easyjet fly to Toulouse and Girona. Bon voyage !
By Ferry
Brittany Ferries have crossings from Plymouth, Pole, Portsmouth to Cherbourg,Caen, Roscoff, St Malo and Santander in Northern Spain. Sea France offers a regular service with 18 crossings a day taking as little as 70 minutes. P&O sail from Portsmouth to Le Havre and from Dover to Calais.
By Train
The super fast, 270mph TGV operated by SNCF will speed you down from Calais to Perpignan in a little over 4 hours. Alternatively you could try Eurostar with departures every half an hour and taking less than 45 minutes.
