Airport - Marseille Provence Airport or Aeroport de Marseille Provence (IATA: MRS, ICAO: LFML) is an airport located 27 km northwest of Marseille. The airport's two terminals, international and domestic, are walking distance from one another. It is the third largest French airport (excluding Paris) for passenger traffic and second largest for cargo traffic.
Shopping - The main shopping streets, the rue Paradis, rue Saint Ferreol and rue de Rome, run off the Canebiere, just to the north of the Office du Tourisme. The Center Bourse, just behind the Old Port, has a shopping mall above the underground car park. There are several markets in Marseille. One not to miss is the fish market on the quai des Belges, on the Vieux Port, a real spectacle as local fishermen compete with one another to sell the catch of the day to passers-by. For something completely different, try "les Puces" (the flea market), 130 chemin de la Madrague Ville, 15e, a cross between a north African bazaar and a car boot sale (with a few antiques thrown in for good measure), one of the liveliest places to find yourself on Saturday or Sunday morning.
