Carcassonne (CCF):

By Taxi: To Carcasonne main town ~€12 & to La Cite ~€15. Taxi-du-Minervois Tel +33 430188142, cellular +33 670374885.

By Bus:
Navette to City:	There is a Navette (shuttle) which runs between the Airport & the SNCF railway station in the city, which costs €5 one way. If there are more than 2 people, it's cheaper to take a taxi.

Buses leave the SNCF train station in the city at 0745 (Tue & Thu only), 0820 (Tue & Thu), 0855 (Mon, Wed, Fri & Sun), 1105 (Mon, Wed, Fri & Sun), 1210 (Tue, Fri & Sun), 1250 (Mon, Wed, Thu & Sat), 1400 (Fri & Sunday), 1530 (daily) & 1715 (Saturday only).

Cost:	Adult one way €5. Children under 7 free. Buy tickets on board. Contact: Tel 04 68 47 82 22.
From a traveller in December 2006:	It starts from the stop outside the SNCF station and follows a route around the city via Place Davilla, Cathedral (dome), then outside the medieval city's main gate and onto the airport via a very strange and unnecessarily long route, no doubt chosen to make passengers think they're getting value for money for the extortionate €5 fare. There's absolutely nothing airside, not even a shop!!! (although there is one landside - work that one out!)
