No. The 1,640 m runway is fine for super-midsize aircraft like the Challenger 350 and Praetor 600, but heavy jets (G650, Global 7500, Falcon 8X) must stage through Nice. We reposition empty if you want a heavy outbound.

Slots are quota-controlled and book out 2–4 weeks ahead. Movements outside the festival window remain bookable within 24–48 hours. Helicopter shuttles between Nice and Cannes Heliport scale up during festival week.

We present a single all-inclusive number — no hidden fuel surcharges or segment fees. Visit the jet-charter-cost guide for a detailed breakdown by aircraft size.

Both. Most clients book by category (light / midsize / heavy) and we guarantee a comparable or upgraded aircraft in the same class. If you want a specific type — for example a Gulfstream G650 for a London–Cannes leg — we source the exact serial number and confirm its home base, cabin layout and crew currency before locking the quote.

Same-day departures from Cannes-Mandelieu are possible when the aircraft is already on the field or within a 90-minute positioning radius.

For predictable service, especially during peak weeks, we still recommend 48–72 hours so we can reserve the preferred FBO, crew duty-rest and slot.

Distance drives two cost blocks: flight time (hourly rate × block time) and aircraft positioning. Short hops under 90 minutes from Cannes-Mandelieu often use light or midsize jets with lower hourly rates. Transcontinental and intercontinental sectors need heavy or ultra-long-range aircraft at higher rates, but the per-passenger cost can be comparable when the cabin is fully utilised. We model every route from CEQ to show the exact flight time, fuel burn and positioning offset before you commit.

Hourly rates step up by class: light jets (€3,000–€4,500/hr), midsize (€4,500–€6,500/hr), heavy (€7,500–€11,000/hr) and ultra-long-range (€11,000–€16,000/hr). The right class depends on passenger count, luggage volume and sector length from Cannes-Mandelieu. We never upsell — if a super-midsize covers your London–Cannes leg with full bags, we quote that category rather than a heavy jet. See the jet-charter-cost guide for per-category cabin photos and indicative ranges.
