Jet privé Monaco - Saint-Tropez
Your flight Monaco - Saint-Tropez
The Monaco – Saint-Tropez private aviation route is a unique case in Europe: Monaco has no airport — only a heliport (MCM) on the breakwater. The straight-line distance is approximately 80 km, covered in 20 to 35 minutes depending on the mode of transport chosen. This micro-route is the epitome of Riviera luxury travel: regulars at Monaco’s casinos and villa owners in Saint-Tropez move frequently between the two jewels of the Riviera. AeroAffaires lists helicopter flights on the Saint-Tropez–Monaco corridor at fares between £1,800 and £2,800.
flight_takeoffBook a flightFor a private flight from Monaco to Saint-Tropez, two options are available: Option 1 (most direct) — Direct helicopter from Monaco Heliport (MCM) to Saint-Tropez or La Môle (LTT). An Airbus H125 takes approximately 22 to 30 minutes for this spectacular coastal journey. Helicopter operators Excellence Riviera and Héli Air Monaco serve this route regularly, with fares from £1,800 to £2,200. Option 2 — Private jet via Nice: travel by car or taxi (20 min) from Monaco to Nice Heliport or directly to Nice Côte d’Azur (NCE), then take a private jet or helicopter to La Môle. This option is preferable for groups of 6 or more, or for those wishing to continue to a further destination (Monaco → Nice → elsewhere in Europe).
According to Excellence Riviera, an Airbus H125 costs £2,200 for the Monaco–Nice leg (20 min), with similar fares applicable to Saint-Tropez. The combined jet-and-helicopter option is priced between £2,800 and £5,000 all-inclusive depending on the routing.

All your questions about the flight Monaco – Saint-Tropez
A private flight from Monaco to Saint-Tropez costs between <strong>£1,800</strong> and <strong>£5,000</strong> depending on the option chosen. The direct helicopter from Monaco Heliport (MCM) to Saint-Tropez is available from £1,800–2,200 for 4 to 6 passengers (Airbus H125). The private jet option from Nice (NCE, 20 min from Monaco by taxi/car) to La Môle (LTT) is available from £2,800–3,500, making it more economical per head for larger groups. Excellence Riviera offers helicopter connections directly linking to private jets.
A helicopter directly from Monaco Heliport (MCM) to Saint-Tropez or La Môle takes approximately <strong>22 to 30 minutes</strong>. AeroAffaires quotes a flight time of <strong>20 to 30 minutes</strong> for this coastal helicopter route. The flight tracks the Côte d'Azur coastline from Monaco, passing over Cannes and Fréjus before landing at Saint-Tropez. Compared to a 2h–2h30 drive via the A8 and coastal roads (sometimes 3h30 in summer due to Estérel traffic), the time saving is considerable. The private jet via Nice adds 20–30 minutes but offers greater comfort for larger groups.
No — Monaco has no airport for jets. The Principality has only <strong>Monaco Heliport (MCM)</strong>, situated on the Fontvieille breakwater, which accommodates helicopters only. For private jets, the nearest airport is <strong>Nice Côte d'Azur (NCE)</strong>, 20–25 minutes from Monaco by road. A permanent helicopter shuttle links Monaco and Nice (20 min; Excellence Riviera fare: approx. £2,100). Passengers wishing to depart Monaco on a private jet therefore travel to Nice by car or helicopter before boarding their aircraft.
For <strong>1 to 4 passengers</strong>, the direct helicopter from Monaco (MCM) to Saint-Tropez is the ideal solution: quick, direct, spectacular, and often the least expensive. For <strong>5 to 9 passengers</strong>, a private jet from Nice (NCE) to La Môle (LTT) combined with a helicopter or car transfer from LTT to Saint-Tropez is more economical per head. For anyone integrating this leg into a longer journey (Monaco → Saint-Tropez → European destination), a jet from Nice with an onward connection at La Môle or Nice offers greater flexibility. Excellence Riviera, LunaJets, and AeroAffaires all offer combined packages.
Night operations are restricted at both Monaco Heliport (MCM) and La Môle Airport (LTT). MCM typically closes at 21:00, as does La Môle (LTT). For a late departure (after 21:00), the only option is a private jet from <strong>Nice Côte d'Azur (NCE)</strong>, open until 23:00, to an alternative heliport or airport. In that case, the transfer to Saint-Tropez is made by car (approx. 1h30) from Cannes Heliport or from Nice. Aircraft arriving very late at Nice should plan a night road transfer. Discuss night operations with your operator well in advance.
Peak demand on the Monaco–Saint-Tropez corridor coincides with the Riviera's major events: the <strong>Monaco Grand Prix</strong> (May — maximum demand, book 3 to 4 weeks ahead), the <strong>Cannes Film Festival</strong> (May), private summer parties in Saint-Tropez (July–August), and regattas such as Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez (October). Outside these periods, helicopter availability is good within 24 to 48 hours. Excellence Riviera and Héli Air Monaco offer charter packages for events — advance booking is essential for May.
