About Signature Flight Support
Signature Flight Support operates a 24/7 terminal at Nice-Cote d'Azur Airport, the French Riviera's primary airport and one of the busiest private aviation gateways in Europe. The facility is located in the dedicated Business Aviation Terminal adjacent to Terminal 2, giving private jet passengers a completely separate arrival and departure experience from commercial travelers.
The terminal features a fully air-conditioned VIP lounge that is five times larger than its predecessor, designed to accommodate the high volume of private aviation traffic that moves through Nice during peak periods like the Monaco Grand Prix, Cannes Film Festival, and the summer season. A dedicated pilots' lounge includes entertainment systems, flat-screen televisions, WSI weather services, and a business center for flight planning. Conference rooms, a cafeteria, and shower facilities round out the amenities.
Signature's ground team handles all standard FBO services including fueling, aircraft parking, GPU, cleaning, catering coordination, and cargo handling. Customs facilities are located within the terminal for international arrivals. The concierge desk arranges ground transportation options ranging from courtesy cars and shuttle services to luxury sedan transfers, helicopter connections to Monaco, and car rentals.
Nice airport sits along the Mediterranean coast about 6 kilometers west of the city center and approximately 20 kilometers from Monaco. The dedicated business aviation ramp provides aircraft parking with direct terminal access, and the short taxi distances keep ground times to a minimum.
For passengers, the Signature terminal at Nice delivers what you would expect from a major Riviera facility: professional service, spacious lounges, and efficient processing that gets you from aircraft to car quickly. The airport handles significant private jet traffic year-round, but the infrastructure is scaled to manage the volume without the bottlenecks that plague some smaller Riviera fields.
