Private charter on request

Indicative fares, excluding landing and waiting fees. The firm price is confirmed by the operator flying you.

Board a twin-engine helicopter at the Nice Côte d'Azur helicopter terminal and land at Figari Sud-Corse after about 1 h 30 over the Mediterranean — about 25 minutes by road from Porto-Vecchio, about 20 from Bonifacio. Private charter for up to 5 passengers, on request.

Time saving

About 1 h 30 in the air, against eight to fourteen hours by ferry and road — the crossing serves Ajaccio or Bastia, and the far south still lies two to three hours' drive beyond.

Why this route

✓The only fast way into the far south: ferries land hours of road away, at Ajaccio or Bastia.
✓A private cabin for up to five passengers, timed to your villa check-in rather than a crossing.
✓One flight covers both Porto-Vecchio and Bonifacio — the final address simply changes the transfer.

Frequently asked questions

Can you fly directly to Porto-Vecchio from Nice?

The helicopter lands at Figari Sud-Corse, about 25 minutes from Porto-Vecchio by road. A car transfer to your hotel, villa or yacht is arranged with the quote.

Is this also the right flight for Bonifacio?

Yes. Figari is about 20 minutes by road from Bonifacio, in the opposite direction from Porto-Vecchio, and the closest airport to the Sperone golf course.

What luggage can come on board?

The hold of an H135 or AW109 is smaller than an airliner's: favour soft bags and mention bulky items — golf bags included — when requesting your quote.
