When should we book flights for our French Riviera charter?

Yacht charter broker, DMA Yachting

After the charter agreement is signed, not before. It is far easier to move a flight than a yacht: the boat you want has to be free, in the right port, on your exact dates, and that is the hard part of the puzzle.

The consolation on the Riviera is that Nice (NCE) is one of Europe’s best-connected airports, with direct flights from across Europe and good long-haul links, so flights are rarely what limits the plan.

Send us your flight times once booked; the crew plans boarding, provisioning and the first evening’s anchorage around your arrival.
