Talk:Nice Côte d'Azur Airport

Comments

Someone should look over the article and compare it to the French one. The main problems I had were the parts about the Airport's administration and the passerelles télescopiques.

definitely... especially the boxed data stuff; stuff like lat/long is language-independent, no? DanConnolly 05:29, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Requested Move

I have requested that this page be renamed as "Côte d'Azur Airport" since the word "international" does not feature in its actual name (french: Aeroport Nice Côte d'Azur). Most French airports follow this naming convention (eg: Aeroport Paris Charles de Gaulle, Aeroport Marseille Provence, etc). At this time, there already is a page called "Côte d'Azur Airport" so I am unable to make the move myself.

Support the move to Nice Côte d'Azur Airport which has already happened. Xn4 (talk) 17:02, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

"Côte d'Azur Airport" is wrong

This airport is not the "Côte d'Azur Airport", it's the "Airport Nice". The current title is wrong.

Nobody in the Côte d'Azur calls it "Côte d'Azur". There are several other airports nearby: in Cannes, Toulon and Marseille. Neither do airlines call it like that.

"Nice Airport" would be OK, or "Nice Côte d'Azur Airport" if you must.

I'm reverting your move. There was already notice in connection with the previous moves that move should be discussed on the talk page first. Not move then discuss. Gene Nygaard (talk) 01:53, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Note that the last move was in accordance to a requested move, which was closed because the move had already been done, according to 19:08 UTC, 24 August 2008 D.c.camero (Talk | contribs) m (1,372 bytes) (Removed RM, already done). That's part of the reason any move now should go through Wikipedia:Requested moves. Gene Nygaard (talk) 02:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Note also that Nice Airport does redirect here.

But most of all, the question here is what would be proper under Wikipedia naming conventions. For comparison purposes, consider that many people refer to "Chicago O'Hare" in both speech and writing, but our Wikipedia article is at O'Hare International Airport, so some explanation of how you think the current situation is different from that one would be in order. Gene Nygaard (talk) 02:21, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Gene, I had added the notes on the talk page here, on November 14th (only signed with realname), before I did the move on Januar 12. So, I did post on discuss page, waited 2 months, then moved.

As I have already argued, I see no basis to call this "Cote d'Azur Airport". It is neither the official name nor the colloquial name. Colloquially, it's the "airport Nice". Please see above.

I stand by that the move was correct. Ben Bucksch (talk) 19:14, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

After again waiting for a while, and nobody seems to disagree on the subject matter (Gene only had procedural objections, and was even wrong at that) and xn4 above agreed, I now moved the page to the Nice Côte d'Azur Airport. This reflects both the official name and is also closer to the colloquial name (which is just "Nice Airport"). Ben Bucksch (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:08, 27 February 2009 (UTC). Confirmation that from my experience there this is indeed the name which should be used. GBobly (talk) 15:03, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Car hire companies

Under the car rental operators section, all the company's names link to their own website. Shouldn't they link to each operator's wikipedia article as wikipedia is not a tourist information website... NicholasNCE (talk) 20:26, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

The new executive terminal

The old Corsica terminal has been renovated and re-opened as the Business (which would probably translate to Executive in English) Terminal and should probably be featured.

A massively large airport

I'm no expert, but the airport capacity is 13 million? That's a lot of people to fit into a few square km. Perhaps these stats are per year? And what means (National; Shengen, Non-Shengen)? Malangali (talk) 00:51, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Capacity

The airport's theoretical capacity is 13 million passengers and 52 movements
(26 landings) per hour.

Of course, the capacity is 13 million annual passengers, not 13 million per hour. Dick Kimball (talk) 17:53, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
