Latest airport reviews
It was a pleasure arriving in Marseille and airport was fast but returning to my country was quite a hassle as there was no information which was the gate to go for boarding even though I had priority boarding there were no rules for queuing! I love Marseille and will definitely return but I wish boarding will be more smooth.
terrible airport, unfortunately i have to fly here several times a month.
they have a delay rate of somewhere between 70 and 90% yust because the airport staff is lazy as can be.
they dont let planes board and or leave in time yust because they can, and for no particular reason,
this is also to blame for air france, who i think is THE most unfriendly airline there is
wouldn't recommend
