Getting there
Genoa Cristoforo Colombo is a public international airport, not a dedicated heliport. No scheduled commercial helicopter line currently connects it to the French Riviera: the link is arranged as a private charter on request, on the same basis as the platform's other routes into the Italian Riviera.
When to go
Genoa draws year-round business traffic tied to its port and the yachting industry — refit yards, brokers, meetings stacked onto the same trip as the Cannes or Monaco shows. Unlike Portofino, there is no marked tourist high season: demand follows the business calendar rather than summer.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Is there a scheduled helicopter line to Genoa?
No. Genoa is served by helicopter only through a private charter arranged on request, with no planned commercial line. Each flight is set up with an operator for your dates.
Can you land directly at Genoa Airport?
Yes: Genoa Cristoforo Colombo is a public airport that accepts helicopters like any aircraft, subject to a slot and handling arranged with your quote.
Why is the flight to Genoa flown on a twin-engine aircraft?
The route from Nice or Monaco follows the Ligurian coast largely over water. Regulations governing extended overwater flight require a twin-engine aircraft — Airbus H135 or Leonardo AW109 — and life jackets on board.
