After what seemed like a very shaky year for Bey and husband Jay-Z, we were hoping he had something amazing up his sleeve for her birthday celebrations… and he didn’t disappoint!

The couple, along with baby Blue Ivy, were spotted arriving by private jet at the Bastia-Poretta airport in Corsica, and it’s expected they’ll now enjoy a relaxing holiday in the South of France.

A source told E! that the couple are looking forward to some family time. “They've had their problems but they're still solid. Going away for Beyoncé's birthday in September is a tradition they have. It's a chance to get some quality time together and relax far from worries about their crazy work schedules.”

With the couple playing in Paris next week as part of their On The Run tour, the holiday fits in well with their hectic calendar.

There’s be no camping or caravans for the glam couple though – apparently the Carters have rented a luxury yacht for the duration of their stay, with a price tag of around $800,000 per week. Wow!

With all the excitement surrounding Bey’s birthday, we feel it should be a national holiday… and it seems like we’re not the only ones! This fan took a stand earlier today and emailed her professor to say she couldn’t attend classes as it was the “the Goddess that is Queen Beyoncé Knowles-Carter’s birthday.”

Eh… could we get a copy of that letter? Might come in handy next September 4th!
