Flying to France with Etihad
Paris (CDG)
Experience a true taste of cosmopolitan France in its romantic capital city. Charles de Gaulle Airport is the largest international airport in France and a convenient gateway to the rest of the country. See the Eiffel Tower, explore the Louvre and visit the iconic Arc de Triomphe.
Toulouse (TLS)
Flying to Toulouse-Blagnac Airport is a great way to start your city stay. Dine in grandeur at the iconic Capitole de Toulouse, visit the Gothic vaults of Couvent des Jacobins or soak up the culture at Daurade. You can also take many sightseeing tours to dig beneath the surface of Toulouse.
Nice (NCE)
Nice is more than just a historic city – it’s the heart of the French Riviera. Flying to Nice Côte-d’Azur Airport is the best way to reach France’s beautiful coast. See the colourful Old Town in Nice or go further afield to see the luxury of Monaco or glamour of Cannes.
Reasons to visit France
Explore Calanques National Park
The Calanques National Park is arguably the most beautiful part of the French Riviera. Here, rocky coves crowned with lush flora and fauna sit beside the ocean. Explore the many coves that dot the coast or admire the rugged landscape from the top of the limestone rock formations.
Discover the continent’s most exotic wildlife in this coastal paradise, including the Montpellier snake and Europe’s largest lizard. The protected stretch of Provençal landscape offers secret swimming spots along pristine white beaches, complete with crystal-clear waters.
Indulge in Parisian food
As soon as your plane tickets to France are booked, you’re bound to start daydreaming about chocolate éclairs, savoury crêpes and comforting French onion soup.
The eateries in Paris are second to none. Visit cosy bistros that spill out onto the streets, Michelin-star restaurants serving haute cuisine and brasseries set in Art Nouveau arcades. Start the day with a delicious croissant and freshly ground coffee, then enjoy a hearty croque monsieur for a filling lunch.
Ski in the French Alps
France is a country of beautiful contrasts. In summer, the southern region is a patchwork of sun-kissed beaches and glorious vineyards. In the mountains, you’ll find a winter wonderland from November until April.
Visit charming Alpine towns – such as Chamonix – and stunning ski resorts nestled in the snow-capped mountains. Travel to Lyon – a beautiful city that also serves as a gateway to the French Alps and a perfect base to start your French skiing adventure.
Things to know before you fly to France
Tipping
In France, tipping is not compulsory. It can be polite to tip beyond the service charge, but a few euros are usually sufficient in mid-range restaurants. If you’re particularly impressed with the service, you’re welcome to leave a more substantial amount.
Local currency
France is one of 19 countries in the Eurozone, so exchange some euros (EUR) before you fly or at the airport. You can also do this when you land at banks and currency exchanges. Most places will accept major credit cards.
Language
French is the main language. Most people in cities speak English, especially those working in hospitality, so dining out should be no problem for English speakers.
Plugs
France uses two plug outlets – type C and type E. Both have dual rounded pins, but type E also accommodates an earthing pin. It’s worth picking up an adaptor before you travel.
Flying to France: FAQs
What are the major airports in France?
Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Nice Côte d’Azur Airport (NCE) are the major airports in France. You’ll likely fly to NCE if you’re visiting the French south coast, while CDG serves as a central hub for seeing France’s famed capital city. Toulouse (TLS) is well located for exploring inland southern France.
What food is France famous for?
France is every food lover’s dream destination – whichever region you travel to. Some of the most famous dishes include cassoulet, a comforting meat and white bean stew, and ratatouille – a sumptuous, vegetarian bake.
Soufflé is another classic – a light dish characterised by its rise in the oven. Try chocolate soufflé for dessert or cheese soufflé as a starter. France is renowned for its cheeses – from soft brie to salty Camembert – so a cheese board is a must on your visit.
Do I need travel insurance for France?
It is always important to purchase travel insurance for overseas trips. You should make sure your policy covers medical insurance and any activities you plan to take part in – such as skiing. It’s important to make sure all information is up to date and accurate.
