About the LFMD to LFMQ route

Cannes Mandelieu Airport (LFMD) sits on the French Riviera coastline, close to Cannes, Mougins and Grasse, and is a popular gateway for travellers visiting the Côte d’Azur for business, leisure or events. Le Castellet (LFMQ) lies further inland in the Var department, known for its motorsport circuit and proximity to Bandol and the Provence wine region, making it a convenient arrival point for those attending racing events or exploring inland Provence.

This is a short regional hop, typically used by travellers who need a quick, direct connection between the coast and inland Provence without the hassle of road transfers. Given the short distance between the two airports, flight time on a Pilatus PC-12/47E (NG) is approximately 15-20 minutes, though this can vary slightly depending on routing and weather conditions.

The Pilatus PC-12/47E (NG)

The Pilatus PC-12/47E (NG) is a single-engine turboprop often classed within the light/utility turboprop category, valued for its versatility on shorter regional routes. It typically seats around 6-8 passengers in a comfortable cabin configuration, with a range class suited to regional and medium-haul European sectors.

This aircraft generally suits smaller groups or individual travellers seeking a flexible, efficient option for short hops, particularly where access to smaller or regional airstrips is useful. Exact cabin layout, baggage capacity and amenities can vary by individual aircraft and operator, so these details are typically confirmed at the time of booking.

How empty leg flights work

When a private jet flies one way for a client, it often has to return or reposition empty. Swift Jet Aviation offers these legs at a reduced rate. Because the aircraft’s schedule sets the timing, departure times can shift and a flight may be withdrawn if the original trip changes, so confirm details before you plan around it. For a fixed date and time, ask us for a private jet charter quote.

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring luggage on this empty leg flight?

Baggage allowance depends on the specific aircraft and operator, as space on a Pilatus PC-12 is more limited than on larger jets. It's best to confirm your luggage requirements, including dimensions and weight, with the operator before booking to ensure everything fits comfortably.

Is it possible to change the date of this flight?

Empty leg flights are typically tied to a specific date and time, as they rely on the aircraft's existing schedule and repositioning needs. Date changes are generally not guaranteed, though it's worth contacting the operator directly to ask whether any flexibility might be available.

Can I book a return flight from Le Castellet back to Cannes?

This listing covers a one-way empty leg flight only. A return journey would need to be booked separately, subject to availability of another suitable empty leg or a standard charter quote, which can be arranged through Swift Jet Aviation.
