Jet-VIP/Private aviation solutions/Private jet and yacht charter

Private jet and yacht charter

Joining a yacht is a logistics puzzle: the right airport, the right marina, the right hour. We plan the flight, the transfer and, through our partner yacht brokers, the yacht itself, so you go from the cabin to the deck without losing a day.

How the two fit together

A yacht charter has a fixed embarkation port and time. A private jet can land at the airport nearest the marina on the day and hour you choose, and the ground transfer or helicopter completes the trip. We build the schedule backwards from your embarkation time.

Yacht charters themselves are arranged through specialised yacht brokers and charter companies; we coordinate the travel and, where you wish, introduce our partners.

Crew, guests and luggage

Plan for the whole party: owners, guests, nannies and personal staff. Yacht cabins have limited storage, so we advise on luggage. If your crew or provisions need to travel ahead, we can arrange it.

Seasonality

The Mediterranean season runs roughly from late spring to early autumn, with August the busiest; the Caribbean peaks in winter. Peak weeks fill marinas and airports alike, so early planning pays. See event guides for the Monaco Grand Prix and Cannes weeks.

FAQ

Do you charter the yacht itself?

Yachts are chartered through specialised brokers and companies. We coordinate your flights and transfers and can introduce our partners.

Which airport is best for joining a yacht on the Riviera?

Usually Nice Côte d’Azur, or Cannes-Mandelieu for smaller aircraft, depending on the marina and the size of your jet.

Can I take a helicopter to the yacht?

Where the yacht has a helipad or a nearby landing site is available, yes, subject to local authorisation.

When should I book?

For peak summer weeks, several months ahead for the yacht and as early as possible for flights and hotels.

Can you plan a one-way trip that ends on the yacht?

Yes. We plan the outbound flight to the marina and the return from another airport if the cruise ends elsewhere.
