Helicopter transfers available
On arrival at Nice, you can take the helicopter directly from the airport to Monaco. Once you have collected your luggage and checked in, it is just a six minute flight to Monaco where you will be taken by minibus to your hotel. Return flights are also available. A minibus will pick you up and take you to the heliport in good time to arrive at Nice airport for your flight back to the UK. If you are staying in Nice, you may wish to travel in style to Monaco on qualifying or race day. Make your own way to Nice airport from your hotel for your helicopter transfer and enjoy a spectacular ride into and out of the Principality! Passengers will be required to make their own way to and from the Grandstands from the heliport due to traffic restrictions in place over the F1 weekend. Please call us on 0844 567 3318 to book these transfers.
