Most visitors arrive at Roland Garros Airport (RUN), 11km/7mi east of Saint-Denis, but there are also limited flights into Pierrefonds Airport (ZSE) in the south of the island.
Moving on is easy: there is a shuttle bus from Roland Garros Airport to Saint-Denis city center, there are taxis, and car hire is available, too.
If you’ve booked an organized tour, you’ll be picked up from the airport and taken care of from there.
