Monaco Info: Drone delivery takes off — FLYDE tests from Rainier III breakwater to yacht Day Off
Monaco Info, the reference television channel of the Principality of Monaco, dedicated a video report to FLYDE on July 24th, 2026, featuring a live test flight from the Rainier III breakwater to the yacht “Day Off” in Monaco. The report includes an on-camera interview with FLYDE founder Pierre Deyris.
The video captures a conclusive test flight: our drone taking off from the Rainier III breakwater, flying silently over Monegasque waters, and completing a live parcel delivery to the yacht “Day Off”. Monaco Info highlights the operational readiness of FLYDE’s technology, ahead of the first commercial service scheduled for August 3rd in Juan-les-Pins.
The report positions FLYDE as an Alpes-Maritimes startup responding to a growing demand from the maritime industry: a drone-based delivery service capable of bringing goods, spare parts, and urgent supplies directly to yachts. Pierre Deyris explains the concept and vision on camera, describing how FLYDE addresses a real pain point for yacht crews and captains.
Monaco Info also announces a significant milestone for FLYDE’s growth in the Principality: our upcoming integration into MonacoTech, Monaco’s reference startup incubator, in September 2026. This partnership will strengthen FLYDE’s ambitions in Monaco, where we operate on a pop-up basis for events, product launches, and premium deliveries, notably during the Monaco Yacht Show and brand activation seasons.
