Travel & Logistics Services

Moving a crew through France well depends on knowing the country's transport ecosystem in detail. Charles de Gaulle and Orly take long-haul arrivals into Paris, Nice Cote d'Azur serves Riviera shoots, and Lyon Saint-Exupery is the gateway to the Rhone-Alpes. The SNCF TGV network ties them together, with two-hour Paris-to-Marseille runs. Our travel coordinators book flights in fare classes that allow rebooking when shoot days slip. They negotiate group rates with French hotel chains and independent sites near unit bases. They also reserve TGV first-class blocks when a department must relocate without losing a half-day to drive time across the A6 or A7 autoroutes.

Ground operations sit on top of the long-haul plan. Minivan crew shuttles run with driver hire under the French VTC framework, sprinter vans suit grip-and-electric moves through narrow Parisian streets, and talent transport comes with discreet, English-speaking chauffeurs. We file Schengen visa applications for non-EU crew and handle ATA carnets and customs at Roissy and Marignane for gear shipments. Our team runs a twenty-four-hour duty line through principal photography. Long-standing ties with French suppliers turn into clear savings of fifteen to twenty-five percent against retail booking, plus priority handling when a shoot day suddenly needs a same-day rebook for thirty crew.
