A modernised, redesigned “billi” terminal that continues to offer attractive fares.
Since going into service in 2010, “billi”, France’s first new-build terminal devoted to low-cost airlines, has met with continual success, attracting both passengers and airline companies. To ensure flights and passengers are welcomed in the best possible conditions, the Airport Management Company has decided to give the terminal a complete overhaul with a whole new construction project. The perfectly controlled investment budget is being devoted to the terminal’s operational performance, while maintaining an advantageous business model which is attractive to airlines and passengers alike.
