Each platform is detailed on our Nice airport and Cannes-Mandelieu airport pages.
- Nice Côte d'Azur (NCE / LFMN), around 7 kilometres from the city centre, is the main gateway to the French Riviera.
- Private terminals are operated there by Sky Valet and Signature Aviation, with VIP lounges, accelerated checks and direct access to the aircraft, away from the commercial terminal.
- Cannes-Mandelieu (CEQ / LFMD), roughly 35 minutes away, is the main alternative when Nice reaches capacity. The airport sits 6 km from central Cannes, around fifteen minutes.
- In high season and during major events, Nice applies strict slot regulation and parking stands become scarce. They must be secured in advance.
Which aircraft for which sector
Most flights from Nice are European sectors of one to two hours, for which a very light jet or a light jet meets the need. On London, Athens or the Greek islands, the midsize adds the cabin and the hold that the smaller categories lack.
To reach Monaco from the airport, the helicopter transfer takes around 7 minutes, considerably faster than the road at busy times. Our teams also arrange chauffeured car transfers to Monaco, Cannes and Saint-Tropez.
