## Description

More than 7 million passengers passed through Nantes Atlantique Airport (IATA: NTE, ICAO: LFRS) in 2025, confirming its role as the international gateway to France's Atlantic coast and the country's sixth-largest city. Located at Saint-Aignan-de-Grand-Lieu south of Nantes in the Pays de la Loire region, it is served by Air France, easyJet, Transavia and Ryanair. A dedicated freight terminal south of the passenger building offers around 6,000 m² of warehouse space, and express operators including FedEx and DHL handle air cargo and mail here. The nearby Airbus plant at Saint-Nazaire ties the airport into the regional aerospace supply chain. For larger freighter volumes, Paris Charles-de-Gaulle (CDG) remains the nearest full cargo hub.
