Flying from Barcelona or Girona: what time should you leave?
Perpignan-Rivesaltes airport has few routes and none to Spain: for most destinations you fly from Girona (≈ 1 h 20 from Perpignan) or Barcelona (≈ 2 h 30). Enter your flight time and we work out the pick-up for the worst case, border checks included.
Recommended pick-up
09:45
- Expected arrival between 12:20 and 13:00.
- Driving: 154 to 175 min (209 km).
- Border and traffic margin: 5–20 min.
- Airport margin: 120 min before the flight.
A careful estimate, not official data: no public source publishes border waiting times.
Pick-up
At your hotel, campsite or holiday let
Choose Collioure or Argelès-sur-Mer as your starting point in the widget and enter the exact address when you book. Campsites and holiday residences often have a barrier or a reception: tell us the name and the pitch or building number so the driver finds you quickly.
In summer the old centre of Collioure is busy and vehicle access is limited. If your accommodation is in a pedestrian street, we agree a pick-up point as close as possible to it.

The private transfer is priced for the whole vehicle; we divide it by the number of travellers so you can compare.

Timing

From the Côte Vermeille the driver joins the motorway near Le Boulou and crosses the border at Le Perthus. Add a margin for border checks and, for Barcelona, for the rush hours on the ring road. Aim to be at the terminal about two hours before a European flight.
Give us your flight number and we suggest the pick-up time with you. We work 24/7, so an early-morning flight is not a problem.
