I haven’t been to Dinan but fly to Dinard and St Brieuc regularly, Dinard (like many other places) used to be a pleasure to visit but unfortunately the bureaucratic crap that is sweeping through Europe reached there a while ago at roughly the same time as Ryan Air…! Having said that it’s easy to find and has an ILS just make sure you don’t land or plan to depart at the same time as Ryan Air because every thing stops for them…!

St Brieac is a much nicer place to be, again it has an ILS and is easy to find, the tower is not always manned and you will normally talk to Rennes Approach until you become visual, it is really laid back and friendly just like things used to be…!

At both places everyone speaks English, I tend to file my return flight plan in the UK at the same time as the outbound for simplicity, and use Jersey or Guernsey for fuel.

St Brieuc now requires Prior Notice:

Douanes, Police / Customs, Police : PN 24 HR 02 96 33 13 83 / FAX : 02 96 62 30 84
