Tour de France 2026: overflight instructions

The 113th Tour de France cycle race will take place from 4 to 26 July and will comprise 21 stages, alternating flat stages, rolling routes, mountain stages and time trials.
This must-see event of world cycling comes with substantial air activity all along and close to the route: aerial filming, television broadcasts, coordination helicopters, transport of the organisers and their guests, and so on.
Pilots are strongly advised to find out, before each stage, about any overflight restrictions published by NOTAM or AIP SUP.
The CNFAS has published a summary of the restrictions known to date.
FFPLUM invites you to consult it using the links below (in French and in English):
