How to Get to Limoges Airport
The Limoges Airport is located 5 miles (7 kilometers) from the town of Limoges.
The airport is just a few miles from the A20 Autoroute - exit (sortie) 28. Just follow Bellegarde with an aeroplane logo to get to the airport.
When leaving the airport to access the A20 Autoroute follow the A20 blue signs.
If you would like an idea just how far the Limoges Airport is from selected towns and cities like Bordeaux and Poitiers please see - Limoges Airport Driving Distances.
There is a taxi stand directly in front of the airport terminal.
If there are not any taxis at the taxi stand you can request one be called at the information desk. If for some reason there is no one at the information desk the taxi stand lists the phone numbers of two taxi companies. It takes 15 minutes and costs about 20 euros to go to Limoges from the airport.
I had one reader tell me that there is the number 16 bus from Place Winston Churchill in Limoges to Landouge. From there it’s a 2.5 mile walk to the airport. The cost to take the bus is 1.2€. I’m not sure how practical this is but I thought I’d pass it along. The reader also added it was a very nice walk.
This same reader added in October 2009:
I was to delighted to read about the Shuttle bus being introduced in June 2009 to operate until the end of October 2009, especially as I had just booked to fly on 8 October 2009. So - yesterday I made the 5 minute walk from Limoges Bellegarde train station to Place Jourdain in the pouring rain! With two heavy suitcases. Walk around the whole square and no sign of a bus stop - all in the rain. So I trudge further to the Tourist Board who tell me it finished on 30 September. I walked back and in a symbolic gesture at Place Jourdain I stood outside the CIEL building where I managed to find a scrappy Navette sign but no information that it had been taken out of service. After 2 cigars a very presentable lady from inside CIEL came to ask why I was waiting there with 2 suitcases!!! She then offered to call me a taxi. Defiantly ( or stupidly British ) I declined and strudged back to The Rail Station and got my own taxi.
Moral - dont trust or take actions on infrormation given by LIG and continue to catch the number 16 bus for 1.20 Euro.
Also: A poster (4th down) in this thread said that there is a bus (Number 6) but it doesn’t run very often. There is a link to a schedule.
