Private jet from Nice Côte d’Azur
Nice Côte d’Azur is the main private jet gateway to the French Riviera: a 2,960-metre runway that takes every category of business jet, and a dedicated business aviation terminal away from the 15.2 million passengers of the main halls.
Nice, the city
Nice is the capital of the Alpes-Maritimes and the second largest city in the region after Marseille. It curves along the Baie des Anges, about thirty kilometres from the Italian border. The city belonged to Savoy and then to the Kingdom of Sardinia until 1860, and it shows: the old town has ochre façades, narrow lanes and a cuisine that owes as much to Genoa as to Provence.
The Promenade des Anglais runs the length of the seafront. Since 2021 it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage site that recognises Nice as the Riviera’s winter resort town. Come in February and the Carnival takes over the streets.
The airport sits on the western edge of the city, by the sea. It handled 15.23 million passengers in 2025 and ranks second in Europe for business aviation traffic, behind Paris-Le Bourget and ahead of Geneva. Private flights have their own terminal, separate from Terminals 1 and 2. The same company also runs Cannes-Mandelieu and La Môle.
