Pythagoras used to say that “everything is number,” which implies the precision of numbers.
But the philosopher and mathematician could not have foreseen that on the French Riviera, numbers are dancing… which would have made his statement possible.
So, on the one hand, the airport breaks its record; on the other, the restaurants complain.
The merchants… well we know them, they are not bothered by contradiction!
Conclusion: are there ghost visitors? People who arrive and then vanish into thin air?
They no longer frequent restaurants, so what are they eating? Only sandwiches and ready-made meals?
Fortunately – for him – Pythagoras lived in a different era!
With 12.4 million passengers in 2016*, the Côte d’Azur airport broke its record in terms of passenger traffic, +3.4% compared to 2015.
This is the increase in the number of passengers recorded in 2016 at the Nice Côte d’Azur airport compared to the previous year, according to the Aéroports de la Côte d’Azur (ACA) company, which released its figures recently.
And this despite a year 2016 marked by the repercussions of Brexit, the July 14 attack, and strikes.
However, it is also reported that the restaurant market continued to decline in 2016 on the Côte d’Azur.
Affected by the drop in attendance linked to the attacks, the restaurant market looked gloomy again in 2016, recording, according to industry professionals, a revenue decrease ranging from 3% to 4.5%.
The Côte d’Azur is one of the most affected areas at the national level.
