Whether you are planning a wedding in Monaco, a honeymoon on the French Riviera or an anniversary trip, Air Charter Monaco arranges the flights from the United States for the two of you or for the whole wedding party.
Weddings on the Riviera
If the wedding is in Monaco, Cannes, Antibes or Saint-Tropez, tell us the town and where your guests are flying from, and your advisor will work out the right arrival airport for each group. Almost every trip lands at Nice Côte d’Azur Airport. Cannes-Mandelieu Airport takes smaller business jets and is closer to Cannes. Saint-Tropez La Môle has special conditions, so please ask your advisor before you plan around it.
Moving the wedding party
When the wedding party travels together, one aircraft is usually simpler to arrange than a long list of separate arrivals. FAR Part 135 is the FAA’s set of rules for on-demand, for-hire charter, and it covers the business jets that carry most wedding parties. Once the group runs past nineteen passengers, the trip calls for an airliner-size aircraft and no longer falls under FAR Part 135. Those flights operate under FAR Part 121 or a foreign equivalent, which generally carries stricter crew and operating requirements than both Part 91 and Part 135.
Summer dates and busy weeks
Summer is the peak season on the Riviera. The airports fill early in the week of the Grand Prix in early June, and the Monaco Yacht Show, from September 22nd to 25th, 2027, is another busy week in Monaco. If your date falls in summer or near either event, book the flights as soon as the date is set.
Honeymoons and anniversaries
For a couple, a long-range jet can usually fly the roughly 3,500 nautical miles from New York or Boston to Nice in one flight. From Nice, the last part of the trip into Monaco is by car or by helicopter. Let us know about the occasion and any catering requests when you book, and we will confirm with the operator what can be arranged on board. Our long-range jets page shows the aircraft we look at for a nonstop crossing.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
Monaco-Specific Patterns We Plan Around
Monaco has no airport runway, so private jets land at Nice Côte d’Azur, about ten nautical miles from the Monaco Heliport, or at Cannes-Mandelieu for smaller jets, and the last part of the trip is by car or by helicopter. Nice is a busy airport with slots all year, and the Grand Prix in early June, the Monaco Yacht Show in September and the summer season fill the Riviera’s airports early, so those dates book first. Every flight from the United States lands in France, so passengers clear French border control on arrival, each needs a valid passport, and Monaco adds no border formalities of its own. From New York or Boston, Nice is roughly 3,500 nautical miles away, which is why a long-range jet is usually the aircraft that makes the crossing without a fuel stop.
