Gate-side Relay in Terminal 1 for last‑minute basics
This Relay sits airside in Terminal 1, handy if your flight leaves from the low-cost carriers’ gates in that building. It’s the standard French newsstand‑convenience hybrid: magazines, books, drinks, snacks, and small travel items all crammed into a compact footprint. Opening hours typically track the Terminal 1 schedule, starting early for the first departures and closing after the last wave of evening flights.
Expect airport pricing: bottled water around €2–3, basic sandwiches in the €5–7 range, and snacks like chips or chocolate bars from about €2. Coffee and soft drinks sit in the usual €2–4 band. Compared with the main food options in Terminal 1, Relay works as a quick grab-and-go stop if you just want something for a 1–2 hour hop to Paris or a nearby European city.
Beyond food, this Terminal 1 Relay carries phone chargers, EU plug adapters, headphones, and basic toiletries, useful if you forgot a cable or toothbrush in Lyon. You’ll also find French and international press, plus pocket paperbacks for a short‑haul flight that’s 60–90 minutes. Stock leans toward mainstream titles and glossy magazines; don’t expect deep niche publications here.
Cards are accepted for small purchases, and contactless works reliably at this Terminal 1 shop, so you don’t need spare euro coins for a €2 bottle of water. One tip: if you care about choice on sandwiches or magazines, stop here before the late‑evening bank of departures when shelves start to thin out.
