I was in Corsica in September and landed at Calvi and Figari. Both these airports are suitable for IFR and seem to have only low frequencies of airline service, especially, I would think, in November. They are both g.a. friendly, in fact there was no landing fee at Figari.

At Calvi avgas refuelling is from a bowser and payment can be made by credit card. Figari has a fixed fuel installation and you need a Total card. In the short time I was there I was unable to establish if there was an alternative.

I have also used Bastia and Ajaccio in the past without difficulty but I have no recent information on these. There is no fuel at Corte or Propriano, but these are not for IFR.
