A private jet charter to Bordeaux, France, offers direct access to the world’s most celebrated wine region. Travellers arrive to explore Saint-Émilion’s UNESCO-listed vineyards, the grands crus of the Médoc, or Pessac-Léognan estates just outside the city. Business aviation demand is also supported by Bordeaux’s role as a hub for aerospace, tech and international trade fairs. The city itself blends 18th-century elegance with the lively energy of south-west France, from Michelin-starred dining to riverside promenades.
LunaJets arranges private jet charter to Bordeaux with complete flexibility and 24/7 support. We coordinate flights to Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport, which features a dedicated business aviation terminal only 12 km from the centre. From there, clients often continue by luxury car to nearby vineyards, though helicopters can shorten transfers to estates in Saint-Émilion or the Médoc to just minutes. The private jet experience offers spacious cabins, refined dining, and complete privacy, all tailored to your schedule. Bordeaux attracts travellers for private tastings, exclusive wine auctions, and harvest celebrations aligned with the region’s most prestigious vintages.
With two decades of expertise and as the first European broker to receive Argus® certification, LunaJets upholds the highest standards in private aviation. In Bordeaux, our expertise ensures smooth arrivals during peak events such as Vinexpo or the Bordeaux Wine Festival, while also arranging discreet connections to the region’s finest vineyards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there curfews or restricted operating hours at Bordeaux–Mérignac for private jets?
Bordeaux–Mérignac is officially open 24 hours a day, and customs are available at all times. There are, however, night-time noise restrictions between 22:00 and 06:00, so some aircraft movements may be limited. The private terminal usually operates 07:00–21:00, with staff on call to handle out-of-hours arrivals and departures on request.
What size and type of private jets can operate at Bordeaux–Mérignac?
Bordeaux–Mérignac has two long runways, including one over 3,000 metres, and stands that accommodate all categories of aircraft. This means everything from small light jets to large VIP airliners can operate here without restriction. Whatever your travel group size or range requirements, LunaJets can source the right aircraft for your flight.
Can I bring pets on a private jet to Bordeaux? What are the rules?
Yes. Pets are welcome on board, provided they meet EU entry requirements. Your animal must be microchipped, have a valid rabies vaccination, and travel with the proper veterinary health certificate. For a first rabies vaccination, a waiting period of 21 days applies before travel. Regulations can change, so your LunaJets advisor will confirm the latest requirements and guide you through the paperwork to ensure a smooth arrival in Bordeaux.
How far in advance should I book a private jet to Bordeaux?
It’s best to book a few weeks in advance to secure your preferred aircraft and slots, especially in peak periods such as July–August, the Bordeaux Wine Festival in June, or the Marathon du Médoc in September. That said, LunaJets often succeeds in arranging flights to Bordeaux at short notice, even when demand is high.
What ground transfers can I arrange from the private terminal to Bordeaux, Cap Ferret, Arcachon, or Saint-Émilion?
From the private terminal, we can arrange chauffeured cars or taxis to meet you directly at your aircraft. The drive into central Bordeaux takes about 25 minutes. For the coast, plan around an hour to Cap Ferret or Arcachon, and roughly 45 minutes to reach the vineyards of Saint-Émilion. Your LunaJets advisor can also coordinate luxury vehicles or bespoke itineraries if you’re heading further into the wine country.
