Cannes Mandelieu (CEQ)
Cannes Mandelieu is the short-field Riviera alternative when your aircraft can use the shorter runway and you want a faster road transfer into Vieux Port or Port Canto.
Performance notes.
Single runway ~1,610 m — well suited to light and many midsize business jets. Heavier ultra-long-range types usually prefer Nice (NCE). Confirm aircraft performance with your operator for hot/high summer conditions.
Seasonal & handling.
Closer to Cannes and the Lérins than Nice for short-field capable jets. Festival weeks fill the GA apron quickly — advance handling is essential in May.

Arrival questions.
When should I use Cannes Mandelieu instead of Nice?+
When your aircraft's runway performance clears ~1,610 m and your boarding marina is Cannes or western Antibes. For heavy/ULR jets or peak-week flexibility, Nice remains the safer default.
