Cannes, located in the French Riviera, is a world-renowned playground for celebrities and luxury travelers alike. With its gorgeous scenery, moderate climate, and luxurious resorts, it’s no wonder that Cannes attracts visitors year-round. Most famously, Cannes hosts the annual Cannes Film Festival each May, bringing around 100,000 visitors to the area and boosting private aviation traffic significantly.
Private Aviation to Cannes
Cannes is cradled between the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea and a picturesque hillside. For travelers arriving by air, the primary airport serving the region is Aéroport Nice Côte d’Azur (LFMN). However, for private aviation, the most convenient airport is Aéroport Cannes Mandelieu (LFMD), which also hosts the Cannes Air Show every June.
If you are planning a visit during peak times, such as during the Cannes Film Festival or the traditional European vacation season in August, we highly recommend arranging your inflight catering at least 48 hours in advance. Booking early ensures the best availability and highest quality service from your trusted private aviation catering partner, Air Culinaire Worldwide.
