Was to time this month at NCE, same problem...no fuel, you have to wait several hours to got it.
Last time, tired to wait, we depart VFR to Cannes (no slot)for refueling (nice 15 minutes flight-1500' agl) then taking off Cannes VFR, pick up an IFR clearance airborne back to Moscow.
If you get the choice, land a Cannes, very freindly airport.
Happy landing.
