MRS Logo With government lockdown restrictions beginning to lift, Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) has seen clear indicators that there is a strong desire to travel again. Parking reservations have doubled to levels not seen since the start of the health crisis.

Importantly, airline bookings have also increased with MRS offering 114 destinations across 25 countries for the summer season, restrictions allowing.

“Marseille Provence Airport is preparing for a summer season which should mark a restart in activity,” explains Philippe Bernand, Chairman of the Management Board of Marseille Provence Airport. “All of our means are being mobilized to make this summer a breath of fresh air for our passengers who dream of being able to travel again. Our airport considers itself a leader in the redeployment of air travel. Whether for Provencal people who wish to visit the world or for foreigners who wish to discover Provence – we will continue to act as a precursor, like the first implementation of antigen tests in France, which took place at Marseille Provence Airport.”
