The invention relates to a jet engine nacelle intended to equip an aircraft, comprising a forward air inlet section, a mid-section intended to surround a fan of the jet engine, and an aft section formed from at least first and second hath-shells rotatably mounted about an axis such that they can each be deployed between a working position in which the half-shells are drawn towards one another and a maintenance position in which the half-shells are spaced apart, at least the first half-shell (11) being equipped with a first follower element (19) in a region situated at a distance from the axis of rotation, the nacelle being equipped with a first fixed guide element (28), the first follower element (19) being designed to bear against a first guide element (28) which is fixed with respect to the jet engine during the rotation of the first half-shell (11). The first half-shell (11) is equipped with a second follower element (20), offset angularly from the first follower element (19) with respect to the axis of rotation of the first half-shell (11), designed to bear against a second guide element (29) during the rotation of the first half-shell (11).
