Getting to Cannes from Nice Airport
Nice Cote d'Azur Airport (NCE)
Nice Cote d'Azur Airport is the main gateway to the French Riviera and the closest international airport to Cannes, located approximately 27 km east along the scenic A8 motorway. During the Cannes Film Festival, the airport experiences a significant increase in private aviation and commercial flights. Our chauffeurs are intimately familiar with the terminal layouts, the private jet terminal and the best routes to Cannes depending on real-time traffic conditions.
We monitor your flight status in real time. Whether you land at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, your chauffeur will be waiting in the arrivals hall with a name sign. Complimentary 30-minute waiting time is included for all airport pickups, so there is no pressure even if customs or baggage claim takes longer than expected.
Red Carpet Transportation Service
Arriving at the Palais des Festivals for a premiere or gala demands impeccable timing, a pristine vehicle and a chauffeur who understands red carpet protocol. Our drivers know exactly where to position the car for the drop-off, how to navigate the security cordons along the Croisette, and how to ensure you step out of the Mercedes at precisely the right moment. Whether you are attending a screening in the Grand Theatre Lumiere or a private soiree on a yacht, we handle the logistics so you can focus on the occasion.
VIP Airport Meet & Greet
For VIP guests, executives and celebrities, we offer an elevated meet and greet service at Nice Airport. Your chauffeur can greet you directly at the aircraft door (for private aviation) or at the gate exit (commercial flights with prior arrangement). Luggage is handled from carousel to vehicle, and a chilled bottle of water awaits you in the Mercedes. We also coordinate with your hotel concierge to ensure seamless arrival, including check-in preparation if required.
