Flights to France from Fuerteventura
Vueling flies direct from Fuerteventura to 7 French cities: Paris, Nice, Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, Nantes and Strasbourg. Paris is around 3 and a half hours away, and the cities in the south are a little closer.
The big advantage is leaving the island without a stopover on the Spanish mainland. With journey times like these, what matters most is where you start: the north, the French Riviera, the Rhône valley and the Atlantic coast each make for a very different trip.
What documents you need to travel to France
France and Spain are both members of the European Union and the Schengen Area, so a valid Spanish ID card (DNI) or passport is enough, with no visa or extra paperwork.
On Schengen flights you need the physical DNI. The digital version is only valid on flights within Spain, and that detail catches people out at the check-in desk. Check the expiry date before you book, because you cannot board with an expired document. Children each need their own document, plus authorisation from the other parent where applicable. If you hold another nationality, check your situation on the travel documents page.
What to know when you land in France
From the airport into the city. Paris is the one that needs planning: its airports are some way out, and the journey by train or bus takes around an hour, so look into it before you book somewhere to stay. Nice is the opposite, with the airport right by the Promenade and the tram reaching the centre in a few minutes. Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux and Nantes all have a shuttle or a direct tram from the terminal.
The TGV. This is what turns 7 airports into a gateway to the whole country. Paris and Lyon are 2 hours apart, and Marseille is a little over 3 from the capital. Stations sit right in the city centres, so flying into one city and home from another usually works better than a simple return.
The cold in the north. This is the biggest change when you leave Fuerteventura, where the temperature hardly moves all year. Paris, Nantes and Strasbourg have proper winters, with lows close to 0°C, and wet autumns. Even in summer, evenings in the north call for a jacket.
Mealtimes. Lunch is served between 12:00 and 14:00 and dinner from 19:30, and many kitchens close after 22:00. Turn up for dinner at 22:30 and you may not find a table.
France uses the euro, and plug sockets are types C and E, at 230V. French is the official language, and English gets you by in tourist areas.
What to do in France
Paris and the north
Paris packs the Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, Notre-Dame and the Eiffel Tower into a walkable area, with Le Marais, Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés as neighbourhoods to get lost in. The Palace of Versailles is half an hour away by suburban train, and the busiest museums are worth booking ahead.
The French Riviera and Provence
In Nice you land right by the sea, and the coastal train reaches Cannes, Antibes and Monaco in under an hour. Marseille is the gateway to Provence: the Calanques National Park, Aix-en-Provence, Avignon and its Palais des Papes, and the lavender fields of the Luberon in summer.
Lyon and the Alps
Lyon has a well-earned name as a food capital, with its bouchons and the Renaissance streets of Vieux-Lyon, a World Heritage Site. The French Alps are close by: Chamonix and Mont Blanc, Annecy and its lake, with skiing in winter and hiking in summer.
The Atlantic coast and the east
Bordeaux has a historic centre listed as a World Heritage Site, with Saint-Émilion half an hour away and the dunes of Arcachon on the coast. Nantes opens the way to Brittany and the Loire châteaux, while Strasbourg sits on the border with Germany, known for Petite France and its Gothic cathedral.
Luggage for your flight to France
What you can take depends on the fare you choose when booking. The simplest fare includes a personal item that fits under the seat in front, and from there you can add cabin or checked luggage.
Heading north from Fuerteventura, warm clothes take up far more room than you expect. And if your plan strings several cities together by train, sorting out your luggage when you book saves you hauling too much between stations. Check the current conditions in Vueling’s luggage policy.
