Location
Avignon, France
Avignon Caumont Airport (IATA: AVN, ICAO: LFMV) is a small regional airport located approximately 8 kilometres southeast of Avignon in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southern France. It primarily handles charter and seasonal flights, serving tourists visiting the historic city of Avignon, the Luberon, and surrounding Provençal countryside.
The airport has limited scheduled service and operates on a relatively modest scale compared to larger regional airports in France. It has historically seen seasonal upticks in traffic, particularly during the summer months and around the famous Avignon Festival. Marseille Provence Airport serves as the main alternative for travellers seeking fuller connectivity in the region.
Terminals
The airport features a single small terminal building handling both arrivals and departures for its low volume of passengers.
