Nice - Collecting e-mail addresses

One of the things that I think could be done very nicely is to have a little stand at the Nice airport with someone saying hello to people who are leaving and offering a very low key way to stay in touch with Nice and its environs..... Collecting e-mail addresses in such a way that those who give them think they will be proteted and to which only a mesage every 6 months or so might be sent.

Promoting bus to and from Nice Airport

The Ligne d'Azur bus operation in Nice could do a lot more to promote itineraries on the bus that take people to the airport and bring them from the airport to many destinations in the area. Part of the "doing more" would be to review those connections in multiple ways from how early they work, to their reliability, and on to issues of luggage permitted on regular buses as this is one of the posted prohibitions!

For Mt Boron, this focuses on the 14 and the 98 (express to the airport) among other possible connections.
