Carcassonne Local Transfers

We are spending one day in Carcassonne in La Cite, planning to arrive by car and depart by train. Car drop off at the train station is not available to me. Current plan is to arrive and drop car off at airport, transfer to La Cite, spend the day and eve in the city, and in the morning transfer to the rail station for departure.

Is this a reasonable approach? I would appreciate local knowledge on transfer options and time windows between the airport and La Cite, and between La Cite and the train station.

From Carcassone train station to the gate of La Cite is a 30-minute walk or €9 taxi ride. Taxis between the airport and train station cost about €13 (about the same price as the bus for 2 or more travelers). Page 657 of Rick's France book also describes local bus options.
