The Welcome Zone is designed to simplify the travel experience for arriving passengers while also giving Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport a sense of place.
The Welcome Zone was developed by the airport in partnership with Rhône Alpes Tourism, Only Lyon Tourism and Congress, and Rhônexpress. It includes a number of advisors and interactive multimedia devices to help travellers plan their trip in the Rhône Alpes region. To make it as easy as possible for passengers to find the information they need, it is divided into three areas: ‘Tourism and Airport’, ‘Lounge’ and ‘Transport’.
In the Tourism and Airport area, passengers can talk to advisors about the services in the airport and surrounding area. In the Transport area, travellers can find out local transport schedules and purchase tickets, while in the Lounge area they can use tablets to find out more on the destination, and view images and videos of what the region has to offer.
