Which airports
- Nice Côte d’Azur (LFMN): the gateway to the Riviera, with business-aviation terminals. See the Nice guide.
- Cannes-Mandelieu (LFMD) accepts only some jets, under weight and noise restrictions.
- Monaco has no runway: guests arrive by road or by helicopter from Nice.
When to go and when to book
The Riviera is in high demand during the Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix in May, then at the height of summer: slots and parking become scarce.
Good to know before booking
- Say whether you want a helicopter transfer to Monaco.
- Night departure restrictions apply in Nice: we confirm the times.
