In 2002, Nice Côte d'Azur Airport added new terminal facilities that bring its total capacity up to 14 million passengers. Flight operations on the French Riviera are complemented by Cannes-Mandelieu Airport which specialises in business aviation. Nice Côte d'Azur has become France's second busiest airport thanks to the high levels of tourism and business in a catchment area that encompasses St Tropez, Antibes, Sophia Antipolis, Cannes, Nice, Monaco and the Italian border region, plus the fact that Nice is France's fifth largest city. In an open sky context, the Airport's ambition is to continue contributing to the region's dynamism by achieving superior levels of growth.
