Cannes Mandelieu Airport (LFMD)

Amazing approach, coming from an IFR plan over the sea to the airfield, and having to do a “circle-to-land” like procedure. They monitor your approach path very closely for noise/altitude, and you need to proof that you did the briefing online in advance before being admitted. Handling via my-handling was very professional. Stayed in a hangar 3 nights. Overall cost including landing, handling, and hangarage (3 nights) was 195 ex VAT. However, if you can move the plane yourself, don’t ask them to tow the plane for you as this is costing you 75 euro ex VAT. Taxi to downtown Cannes was about 25 euro. Cannes is a great place to pass a weekend.

Are you sure?
