Lying just north-west of Perpignan, about 4 km from the centre, Perpignan - Rivesaltes is the gateway to Roussillon, between the Pyrenees and the Côte Vermeille. Its 2,500 m main runway sees scheduled Airbus A320neo and Boeing 737 services, but the airport is not open around the clock and every non-based aircraft must be announced 24 hours ahead. MK Partnair deals with these formalities for you.
24-hour prior permission (PPR) is required for every non-based aircraft. Opening hours are shorter on Saturday evenings and Sunday mornings in particular. Customs operate from 07:00 to 19:00 UTC, and non-Schengen flights need 24 hours' notice on weekdays and 48 hours at weekends and on public holidays (winter UTC times, one hour earlier in summer).
The 2,500 m runway and category 7 rescue and fire-fighting cover allow narrow-body airliners, as the scheduled A320neo and Boeing 737 services show. Business-jet stands are limited to a Gulfstream IV wingspan, so larger aircraft park on the commercial apron.
