The French Riviera airports at Nice and Cannes are investing in business aviation infrastructure in a bid to keep the rich and famous coming back to the Cote d’Azur’s exclusive resorts. “The region realizes the importance of this type of clientele and knows that it has alternatives in places like Spain,” said Jonathan Howells, regional director for Europe, the Middle East and Africa with Universal Weather & Aviation, which has just moved into the new general aviation terminal (GAT) at Nice.

The new GAT has been developed from an old building that formerly was used for flights to Corsica. It has provided a 16,000-sq-ft space to be shared by three FBOs: Swissport Executive Aviation (a joint venture between Swissport and Universal), Signature Flight Support and Landmark Aviation.
