Le Havre-Octeville Airport is relatively quiet, mostly serving a number of domestic flight destinations within France, with almost no international flights other than chartered excursions. A small flight school is also present at the main terminal. Enterprise does not operate a branch outlet at the main building. To find us after arriving by plane, head south on the D940 and D232 until you reach the southernmost road next to the harbour. Please see our map of the area for more information.
