Cannes
Chartering a private jet to Cannes means reaching the French Riviera as close as possible to the Croisette, thanks to a rare asset: the city has its own business-aviation airport, Cannes-Mandelieu, less than twenty minutes from the centre. The capital of cinema and major international events, Cannes draws a discerning business and leisure clientele all year round, for whom the private jet combines speed and discretion.
Why charter a private jet to Cannes?
The Cannes Film Festival, Cannes Lions, MIPIM, MIPCOM, the yachting season: the city strings together events that generate considerable demand for business aviation. The private jet avoids saturated scheduled flights and long connections, for a controlled arrival at the chosen time.
Our teams select from our fleet the aircraft suited to the distance and the number of passengers, and coordinate all logistics through to the Croisette.
Cannes-Mandelieu, the airport at the foot of the Croisette
Cannes-Mandelieu Airport (CEQ / LFMD), around 6 km from Cannes — about twenty minutes from the centre — is one of France's main business-aviation airfields. Its 1,540 m runway accommodates jets up to 35 tonnes at take-off, including the Dassault Falcon 7X.
For heavier aircraft — large ultra-long-range jets or VIP airliners — Nice airport, around thirty minutes away, takes over. Our teams guide you to the field best suited to your aircraft and your meetings.
Which cities can you fly from to Cannes by private jet?
Cannes is reached directly from Europe aboard a light or midsize jet:

- Geneva – Cannes: around 0h50
- Zurich – Cannes: around 1h10
- Paris – Cannes: around 1h20

Cannes, capital of cinema and the art of living
The Croisette and its palaces, the Palais des Festivals, the old port and the Lérins islands make up a unique setting, complemented by leading hotels and dining. Beyond the major events, Cannes is enjoyed all year round, at the heart of a Riviera made for getaways: Monaco and its art of living are a few minutes' flight away.
