AFAICT, there is no bus that goes to Biot from Nice Airport, the #230 (Nice Airport - Valbonne) passes near Biot but skirts round it (stays on the motorway) and stops at Sophia, not before.

After 8PM, a taxi would be approx. €30-€40.

Nice St Augustin station is close to the airport. There's a train to Biot at 20:36.

Well, Nice airport-Biot is only 15 kms, at €2.16/km (night tariff after 8PM) + the time it takes to get to Biot (at something like €26/hour after 8PM -it varies from department to department -Nice is in the most expensive one for taxi fares -number 06-, apart from Ile de France, Greater Paris), that's roughly between €30 and €40, more likely to be €40 I reckon (€2 tolls, + €2 for the PC "prise en charge", and luggage)

As long as the plane lands on time and you pick your bags without too much delay, you should make Nice St Augustin with no problem.
