The great-circle distance Sochi — Nice is 2,621 km. The aircraft is picked with about 10% in hand on top of that figure: headwind, navigation reserve and routing around restricted areas all eat into range, so a book figure of 2,621 km with nothing to spare falls short.
Rates are per flight hour of a wet charter — crew, fuel and insurance included. The flight price is worked out for this sector; positioning the aircraft to the departure point and airport charges are counted separately.

The aircraft is flying this route anyway, so the price is several times below a standard charter. These come up 1–7 days before departure.
Roughly $10k to $18k for a one-way flight: the lower figure is a light jet, the upper one a large cabin with maximum range. The final number depends on the type of aircraft, positioning to the departure point and airport charges.
The great-circle distance is 2,621 km. On a midsize jet that comes to about 3 h 35 min including taxi, climb and descent; on a light jet it takes longer.
Crew, fuel, insurance and standard handling. Positioning the aircraft to the departure point, airport charges, waiting time and catering on request are counted separately.
Yes — on an empty leg, when the aircraft is going that way regardless. The price can be several times lower, but the date and time are not the passenger's to set.
