Spending the night at Toulouse Airport is possible and generally considered safe and relatively comfortable, especially if you have the right equipment. It is a viable option for travellers with very early morning flights or long layovers.

Where to Rest

  • Padded Seats: On the second floor of the terminal, you can find an area with dim lighting and more comfortable seating, ideal for trying to sleep.
  • Benches in Check-in Area: In front of the check-in counters, there are large and comfortable benches that can be used for resting.
  • Nearby Hotels: For greater comfort, the NH Toulouse Airport is directly connected to Hall A. In addition, there are numerous hotels nearby, many of which offer shuttle service to the airport.
  • Considerations: The airport is relatively quiet at night. It is recommended to bring an eye mask and earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones for better rest. Power outlets for charging electronic devices are available in several areas.

Luggage and Security

  • Left Luggage: The left luggage service has limited hours (closed at night). This means that if you decide to stay overnight, you will need to keep your luggage with you until you can check in for your flight.

Food and Drink

Tips for a long layover

  1. Check whether you can leave the airport: it depends on your nationality, the visa rules of France and whether your bags are checked through.
  2. If you sleep airside, you will usually need a boarding pass for a flight that day. Ask your airline before you go through security.
  3. A lounge with day access can be cheaper than a hotel for a few hours: see VIP lounges at TLS.
  4. Keep your valuables with you, set an alarm and carry a light layer: terminals are often cold at night.
  5. Going to a hotel in town? See transportation from TLS (6.7 km to Toulouse), and check which services run at night.
