Every assignment starts with an airport, and yours is NCE. The desk holds a consignment that is late, valuable or perishable, finds the first departure that fits, and then looks for a courier who can be at the counter in time. Fréjus is 56 minutes out, which puts you inside the window for most of 116 nonstop destinations.

What the work pays
The fee for an assignment is agreed with you in writing before you accept it. These are the figures the site publishes, and what the desk covers on top of them.
Top published feeAED 2,000The highest fee the site shows for a single assignment: sealed medical samples in a cooled case, Dubai to Singapore.
Published band, per assignmentAED 900 to 2,600A document pouch to London is AED 1,200, an aircraft part to Frankfurt AED 1,500, an escorted watch on the Berlin lane AED 1,800.
What the flight costs youAED 0The desk books and pays the ticket, the transfers and, where the routing needs it, the hotel. A courier never fronts the fare.
The one payment you makeAED 199, returnedThe Academy, paid once. It comes back in full on top of the fee for your first completed assignment. Applying itself is free.
Fees vary with the lane, the notice, the waiting time and whether the return is immediate, so the desk quotes each assignment individually rather than pretending one number fits every trip. You are self-employed and there is no minimum: accept or decline whatever you like, and declining costs you nothing. Earnings are paid per delivery by bank transfer, they appear in your courier portal, and you can request a payout once the balance reaches AED 200. Apply and see the flight board.

How to start, in four steps
1
Apply once
One application covers every country desk. Tell us which passports you hold and where you can travel.
2
Verification and the Academy
Identity and background check, then a short course on customs, handovers and chain of custody.
3
Your first offer
The desk sends the routing, the dates and the fee in writing. You accept or decline, nothing is automatic.
4
Fly, hand over, get paid
Collect, board, clear customs in person, hand over against signature, and the fee is paid to your account.
The assignment
There is no roster and no shift on the Fréjus list. An assignment is a single trip: accept the offer, collect, drive 61 km to NCE, board, land, clear, hand over. The Gulf sector out of NCE is nonstop, so there is no connection to miss. Then you go home or you wait for a return leg, and the desk books and pays for either.
Getting to the aircraft from Fréjus
The ground leg from Fréjus is 61 km to Nice -Côte d'Azur, about 56 minutes. Where a second airport is within reach of Fréjus it is listed too, because the desk will use whichever one has the flight.
A drive of 56 minutes is comfortable for a same day departure as long as the call comes with a couple of hours in hand, which most do. Fréjus has more than one way out, which is unusual and useful. MRS at 1 hour 43 minutes adds 117 nonstop destinations to the 116 at NCE.
| IATA | Airport | By road | Driving time | Nonstop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCE | Nice -Côte d'Azur | 61 km | 56 minutes | 116 |
| MRS | Marseille Provence | 142 km | 1 hour 43 minutes | 117 |
Fréjus is a city of 53,000 people in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, and the clock there runs 2 hours behind the Emirates in summer and 3 in winter. Road distances are measured driving routes rather than straight lines, and nonstop counts come from the scheduled route data this site publishes.
What NCE reaches without a change
Scheduled reach from Nice -Côte d'Azur: 116 nonstop destinations, 44 countries, 55 operating carriers. Frequencies below are average daily flights from the site’s own route data.

Counting every airport a courier in Fréjus can drive to, the combined nonstop board is 159 airports. Frequencies are average daily flights and change with the season, so the desk checks the live schedule before it offers you anything.
What moves out of Fréjus
The site holds no public industrial map for NCE, so this section says less rather than guessing. Consignments out of Fréjus are typically documents, spare parts, samples and small valuables that missed a cut off.
Why a courier in Fréjus is useful to the desk
Hand carry is a business of catchments, and Fréjus is inside one. Fréjus sits inside the catchment of Nice -Côte d'Azur, 61 km out, which means a consignment collected in the city in the morning is airborne the same day rather than the next one.
The Emirates end of the lane looks like this from NCE. From Fréjus the Gulf is a single sector: NCE and DXB are joined nonstop, about one departure a day, flown by Emirates. That is roughly 6h 10m in the air over 4,800 km, and it means a consignment can leave Fréjus in the evening and be in the Gulf before the next working day starts.

The engagement, and who we are looking for
The engagement
- Type: freelance, self-employed. You are an independent courier accepting individual assignments, not an employee, and you decide which ones you take.
- Where it runs: assignments are flown out of NCE and the other airports listed above, between France and wherever the consignment is going, with the return leg agreed per mission.
- Hours: variable. An assignment is a single trip, not a shift or a roster.
- How you are paid: a fee per completed assignment, agreed in writing before you accept it. The fees published on this site run from AED 1,200 for a document pouch to AED 2,000 for a cooled medical consignment, and the figure for your assignment reflects the lane, the notice, the waiting time and whether the return is immediate.
- What the desk pays: the flight, the transfers and, where the routing needs it, the hotel. A courier never pays for the ticket and never fronts the fare.
- Applying is free. No payment is required to apply, to be screened or to be placed on the courier list. The Academy costs AED 199, paid once, and is returned in full on top of the fee for your first completed assignment. It is the only payment a courier ever makes to us.
What we look for
- A passport with comfortable remaining validity and free pages, and the right to enter the country on the routing. The desk checks the visa position for your specific passport before any assignment is offered.
- A clean background check and a willingness to be verified. Couriers carry other people’s property.
- Availability at short notice, and a realistic view of the 56 minutes drive to NCE. Most assignments are confirmed hours, not days, before departure.
- Presentable, calm and articulate at a customs counter. The consignment is only as smooth as the person carrying it.
- A working phone, reachable on the number you gave us, for the whole assignment.
What we provide
- The ticket. Always. A courier never pays for the flight and never fronts the fare.
- The paperwork, prepared before you reach NCE, and a named contact at the desk on both ends.
- A briefing on the consignment, the consignee and what the customs position at the far end looks like.
- A fee per completed assignment, agreed with you in advance and paid by bank transfer after the handover.
Questions about the Fréjus list
01How far is Fréjus from NCE?
56 minutes and 61 km on a measured route. Whether that is a comfortable drive depends on the hour, so the offer names the time you should leave Fréjus rather than only the departure time.
02What can I reach from Fréjus without a change of aircraft?
NCE serves 116 airports nonstop across 44 countries with 55 operating carriers, and counting every gate a courier in Fréjus can drive to, the combined nonstop board is 159 airports. That is the practical range of a single assignment from here before anybody has to connect.
03Getting from Fréjus to the Emirates: nonstop or not?
From Fréjus the Gulf is a single sector: NCE and DXB are joined nonstop, about one departure a day, flown by Emirates. That is roughly 6h 10m in the air over 4,800 km, and it means a consignment can leave Fréjus in the evening and be in the Gulf before the next working day starts.
04Do I have to live in the UAE to be on this list?
No. The company is Emirati and the coordination happens in Dubai, but couriers live in places like Fréjus. The Fréjus list exists because somebody has to be near NCE when a consignment appears in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.
05Does it cost anything to apply?
It is free to apply from Fréjus and free to be screened. The one charge anywhere in the process is the AED 199 Academy, paid once and refunded on top of your first assignment fee.
06How is my fee agreed?
The offer, the routing out of NCE and the fee arrive together. You reply yes or no, and the yes is the agreement for that single trip out of NCE.
