Partner with FLYDE — brand operations by drone to yachts.

FLYDE is the first authorised operator delivering to yachts at anchor by drone on the French Riviera. Since August 2026 we fly weekly from Antibes and Cannes, and operate at sea off Monaco. The parcel leaves a base at the port, follows a dedicated air corridor, and is lowered by winch directly onto the deck while the drone holds a hover. No manoeuvre is asked of the vessel. Eight minutes of flight, where a tender takes thirty to ninety.

For a brand, this is not a logistics story. It is the only way, today, to show your product arriving from the sky onto the deck of a yacht at anchor in the Mediterranean — and then to sell it there. This page explains how we work with brands, what an operation produces, and how a partnership opens onto a live sales channel.

A window that will not stay open

There are no existing images of drone delivery to yachts in Europe. Our camera team is on site on the operating dates below, and the first brands to commit will be the first published — in the press, on our channels, and on yours.

We have been covered by Nice Matin, Monaco Matin, Monaco Info and TV Monaco, with more than 150,000 press views in the three weeks following launch. Every operation we run adds to that coverage.

How a brand operation works

Everything is already coordinated on site: the aircraft, the remote pilot, the insurance and the air corridor. You are not funding the setup. You are sharing the cost of using it.

The boat. A yacht positioned at a precise point, one or two kilometres from our base. One hour on site, no manoeuvre during the operation.

Your product. Lowered by winch, in a hover, directly onto the deck. Your brand comes down from the sky.

A dedicated film crew. Aerial footage, product stills on board, the delivery filmed end to end. Content that exists nowhere else at the moment.

Communication. We relay the operation jointly on social media, with your brand named. An influencer can be brought on board as an option.

What you receive

A selection of images. An edited film. Full usage rights for social, retail and commercial supports. Joint approval before any publication.

Beyond the images: your professional account

This is the part most brands do not expect.

Our booking platform is live, and professional accounts are open to any business that requests one. A partnership does not stop at a film. It puts your products in front of the yachts we already serve.

Your products on our platform. Your packs are listed on the FLYDE booking platform and offered to yachts at anchor in our operating zones. Your brand is no longer only shown to our clients — it is sold to them.

Your own professional account. A dedicated rate on every delivery. When one of your orders is bound for a yacht at anchor, you offer the drone to your client at the price you set, and you rebill it. The margin is yours.

Who we work with

We work with a small number of partners per sector, and we keep it that way deliberately — the operating calendar is finite and exclusivity has value.

• Provisioning, fine food and specialist grocers
• Water toys, tenders and nautical equipment
• Beauty, fashion and accessories
• Wines and spirits
• Any brand whose product is best understood when it is shown in use, on board

If your sector is not listed, it does not mean we cannot work together. It means we have not been asked yet.

Where and when

Our camera team is on site on these dates. A partnership slots into the existing calendar — you are not paying for a bespoke deployment.

Zones in operation:

• Antibes, Port Gallice — every Thursday
• Cannes, Port du Béal — every Friday
• Monaco, at sea — 8 and 9 September, then 22 to 24 September

Zones opening:

• Corsica, Porto Vecchio — September, event operation
• Sardinia, pop-up — September, event operation

Dates may change. A fifteen-minute call is enough to see whether a date suits you.

Three partnership formats

Rates are quoted on request and exclude VAT. To be transparent about it: these amounts fund the filming setup and the operating slot. They are not an entry fee to the yachting market.

• Dedicated film crew
• Edited film and a selection of images
• Usage rights for social, retail and commercial supports

Multi-zone — rate on request

• Zones agreed together
• Three films on three different boats
• Dedicated film crew on every operating day
