Under eight hours non-stop from Teterboro to Nice Côte d'Azur, then twenty minutes to the Promenade or seven by helicopter to Monaco. The overnight lands on the Riviera mid-morning.
Bank transfer or cryptoPriced in US dollars for this route.
New York to Nice is 4,000 miles, which a heavy jet flies non-stop in about seven hours forty-five with the jet stream behind it. Ultra-long-range cabins are faster. The route is too long for a super-midsize jet without a stop, so it starts at the heavy cabins.
The six-hour time difference makes the overnight the natural pattern: leave Teterboro at 8 pm, land at Nice at 10 am. Nice's private terminals sit at the western end of the field, twenty minutes from the Promenade and forty from Monaco or Cannes; a helicopter covers the last leg to Monaco in seven minutes.
Nice closes between 11.30 pm and 6 am, so the overnight from New York is timed to arrive after opening. In May and June the airport's slots are allocated weeks ahead, and we plan Grand Prix and Film Festival trips accordingly.
Prices below are indicative one-way figures for the whole aircraft, not per seat. They cover the flight, crew and fuel; parking at Nice, repositioning and handling are quoted separately once we know your dates.
A return with the aircraft waiting on the Riviera is usually priced well below two one-way flights, though summer parking at Nice is limited and we sometimes base the aircraft at Marseille or Cannes between legs.

Super-midsize jets need a fuel stop on this route and are quoted on request. VIP airliners depart from JFK or Newark rather than Teterboro.
Teterboro handles most of New York's private departures, but it caps aircraft weight and closes to noisy movements overnight, so the largest cabins and some late flights go from Westchester, Newark or JFK.
The busiest private airport on the East Coast. Aircraft above 100,000 lb are not permitted, so VIP airliners go to JFK or Newark. Voluntary curfew 11 pm to 6 am; customs by prior arrangement.
Quieter ramp and easier parking than Teterboro, with customs on site. Curfew on movements between midnight and 6.30 am.
Full customs and immigration and no weight limit. The choice for Boeing Business Jets and Airbus Corporate Jets.
Full customs, no weight limit and often easier slots than JFK. Useful when Teterboro is closed by weather or a security restriction.
Nice Côte d'Azur is the second-busiest business airport in France and the gateway to Monaco, Cannes and Saint-Tropez. Cannes-Mandelieu takes light and midsize jets to the Croisette; a helicopter covers the last leg to Monaco in seven minutes.
Flying private to Nice from anywhere: airports, aircraft and prices
Two private terminals at the western end of the field. Night curfew from 11.30 pm to 6 am; summer slots are allocated weeks ahead.
Not a jet airport but the last leg: helicopters shuttle from the Nice private terminal to Fontvieille throughout the day.
New York to Nice starts at the heavy cabins: the Legacy 650 in our fleet, the Falcon 900LX and the Gulfstream G450 all fly it non-stop. The Gulfstream G650 is quicker and quieter. Dassault's Falcons suit the Riviera. For large parties, VIP airliners depart from JFK into Nice.
Aircraft pages for this route: Dassault Falcon 7X, Embraer Lineage 1000.
Twelve to fourteen seats and a stand-up cabin, non-stop in under eight hours. The Legacy 650 in our fleet crosses with margin.
See the Legacy 650Thirteen to sixteen seats and a lower cabin altitude for a proper night's sleep. The Gulfstream G650 makes Teterboro to Nice in about seven and a half hours.
See the Gulfstream G650Eighteen seats and above in the Airbus Corporate Jet or Boeing Business Jet, from JFK or Newark.
See the whole fleetThe Riviera's calendar is short and concentrated: May and June fill Nice's slots weeks ahead, and August needs planning.
The return leaves from Nice and lands at Teterboro, Westchester, JFK or Newark. Westbound into the headwind allow about eight and a half hours non-stop; a mid-morning departure from Nice lands in New York early afternoon local time.
During the Film Festival, the Grand Prix and the Yacht Show, Nice's departure slots and parking are the scarce resources, so we secure the return when we book the outbound.
Indicative one-way prices for the whole aircraft start at about $72,000 in a heavy jet; about $90,000 in an ultra-long-range jet; about $158,000 in a VIP airliner. Repositioning, overnight parking and handling are quoted separately once we know your dates, and a return with the aircraft waiting is usually priced well below two one-way flights.
About 7 hours 45 flight time for the cabins shown on this page, depending on the aircraft, the winds and the airports at each end. Every cabin class listed flies it without a stop.
From New York: Teterboro, Westchester County, John F. Kennedy International and Newark Liberty. Into Nice: Nice Côte d'Azur and Monaco Heliport. Each is described above with its drive time and the operators that handle private flights there.

Pets travel in the cabin. Entering France, a dog or cat needs a microchip, rabies vaccination and an EU health certificate or pet passport; we arrange the paperwork with the handler.
