Jet privé Paris - Courchevel
Your flight Paris - Courchevel
Courchevel 1850, the most exclusive ski resort in the French Alps, is just 1h15 by private jet from Paris. Courchevel airfield (CVF), perched at 2,008 metres above sea level, is one of the most famous and technically demanding in the world: a 537-metre runway with an 18.5% gradient, restricted to pilots with a site-specific qualification. Landing at Courchevel by private jet means starting your ski holiday with an adrenaline rush before you have even put your boots on.
flight_takeoffBook a flightThe Paris–Courchevel distance is 550 km as the crow flies, making it an ideal short-haul flight for a Phenom 300E or a Pilatus PC-24 — the PC-24 is particularly well suited thanks to its STOL (short take-off and landing) capabilities. For groups or bulky ski luggage, the Cessna Citation CJ4 is a strong option. Courchevel is a winter destination: December to April, with peaks over French school holidays and New Year.
If weather conditions at Courchevel (fog or heavy snowfall) prevent landing, the nearest alternatives are Chambéry-Savoie (CMF, 1h30 drive) and Sion in Switzerland (SIR, 1h45 drive via the Mont-Blanc tunnel). Your charter operator can coordinate a private transfer or helicopter from these airports to the hotels of the Trois Vallées.

All your questions about the flight Paris – Courchevel
Between €8,500 and €14,500 one-way depending on the aircraft. The Phenom 300E (4–6 pax) is the most competitive at €8,500. The Pilatus PC-24, the star of the alpine runway, is around €11,500. School holiday weekends and the end-of-year festivities can push prices up by 30 to 50%.
No — only pilots with a site-specific qualification for Courchevel (training and on-site check) may operate at CVF. The 18.5% gradient runway and short length (537 m) make it one of the most technically demanding airfields in Europe. Some operators refuse CVF in poor visibility; alternatives such as Chambéry or Sion then take over.
Absolutely. Private jets have none of the low-cost airline restrictions: skis, snowboards, boots and ski suits travel at no extra charge. The hold of a Phenom 300E or CJ4 can easily accommodate 4 to 6 pairs of skis. Mention your equipment at the time of booking to optimise loading.
In the event of closure due to weather (thick fog, blizzard), the options are: Chambéry-Savoie (CMF, long runway, 1h30 shuttle), Grenoble-Isère (GNB, 2h drive), or Sion in Switzerland (SIR, 1h45 via Mont-Blanc). A private helicopter can also complete the last leg from Chambéry in 20 minutes.
Courchevel is open from mid-December to mid-April. The most in-demand weeks are: Christmas festivities (24 Dec–2 Jan), February half-term, and mid-March. To ski without the crowds and pay less, opt for January (outside school holidays) or early April — spring skiing in the Alps sunshine is exceptional.
No. Courchevel is in France; a French or European ID card is sufficient. For non-EU nationals, your usual passport is sufficient within the Schengen area.
