How much is Paris–Nice by private jet?
A one-way Paris–Nice is estimated between €3,000 and €3,500 on a light jet, and €4,000 to €5,000 on a midsize, for about 1.2 hours between Le Bourget and Nice Côte d'Azur. The price is for the whole aircraft: with six passengers, the light jet works out at roughly €500 each.
Which aircraft for this distance
Over 690 kilometres a light jet does the job non-stop and gives the best cost-to-time ratio. A midsize only adds value beyond six passengers or with ski luggage. A larger aircraft on this route means fuel paid for a cabin that stays empty.
Le Bourget’s curfew decides the return
Le Bourget closes from 22:15 to 06:00. A dinner that runs long in Nice turns a same-evening return into a night on the coast, or moves the departure to Orly. It is the constraint that shapes this route’s flight plan, before the category is even chosen.

Computed estimates: great-circle distance × 1.05, time at manufacturer cruise + 0.3 h taxi, published broker hourly rates (Paramount Business Jets), converted at the ECB rate. The firm price depends on aircraft positioning, fees and date.
* Flight under two hours: most operators bill a two-hour minimum per day of use, so the real price is above the computed estimate.
