Its permanent quest for know-how and quality led to MONACAIR being bestowed with the prestigious title of Official Suppliers to S.A.S. the Sovereign Prince of Monaco in 1999. Since this date, MONACAIR has taken care of all helicopter transport for the Princely Family of Monaco, the Government of Monaco and several Chiefs of State visiting the Principality.

Since January 2016, Monacair has been the official Monegasque operator of the Regular Line between Monaco and Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport. The company operates over 40 daily flights, scheduled every 15 minutes. Based at Monaco’s heliport and at all Nice Côte d’Azur Airport terminals, Monacair offers a wide range of services in the helicopter industry:

In September 2015, soon after Monacair won the Gouvernement Princier de Monaco’s tender call, an order for 6 brand-new single-engine H130 helicopters, fitted with enlarged trunks, was placed. The delivery was received between December 2015 & end of April 2016. These helicopters are air-conditioned and are mostly used for the regular line transfers: Monaco-Nice and Nice-Monaco.

Since 2016, Monacair has made different partnership with several companies like Air France, Easyjet, Emirates, and Qatar, enabling passengers to catch connection flights at Cote d’Azur Airport.
