Geneva Airport sits a few minutes from the French border, which puts the ski resorts of Savoie and Haute-Savoie within a morning's drive. Courchevel is in the Tarentaise valley, part of Les 3 Vallées, about 145 kilometres from the airport. The drive takes about two and a half hours and ends at your chalet, whichever of the Courchevel villages it is in. Méribel and Val Thorens, in the same ski area, share the road as far as Moûtiers. Chamonix is closer: about 90 kilometres and an hour and a quarter by the Autoroute Blanche, to the foot of Mont Blanc. Courchevel and Chamonix have a summer season too, for hiking and mountain biking, and the transfer works the same way all year.

Ski bags go into the boot at the airport and come out at the chalet, with no shuttle bus to wait for and no train to change. Going home, the car collects you at the door at least fifteen minutes before the time you booked. One person can book the transfers for the whole chalet, and the payment can come from someone else or from a company. A dog on holiday with you travels in a closed carrier, declared in the notes; assistance animals need no carrier.

Two roads out of Geneva.

For Courchevel the car takes the A41 towards Annecy, follows Lake Annecy to Albertville, then the N90 up the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers, where the last climb to Courchevel begins. On ski-season Saturdays, when many chalets change guests, the Tarentaise is slow in both directions: allow extra time for a flight that day.

For Chamonix the car takes the A40, the Autoroute Blanche, up the Arve valley, and the last kilometres on the N205 into the town. Both routes cross the border between Switzerland and France, so carry the documents required for your nationality.

Vehicles for skis and mountain roads.

All vehicles

Two people travelling light can take First Class (Mercedes S-Class, BMW 7, Audi A8 or similar), with screens in the back and tinted windows.

Included from arrivals to the chalet.

  • Swiss sector arrivals hall

    The chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall of the Swiss sector, after customs, with a tablet showing your name or your company's logo. At the other end, the car stops at your chalet or hotel door.

  • Flight number, tracked

    With the flight number the office follows your flight, moves the pick-up if you land early or late and sends the chauffeur to the right terminal. You receive the chauffeur's contact details before landing.

  • 60 minutes at Geneva, 15 at the chalet

    At airports, drivers wait up to 60 minutes in case of delays beyond the scheduled arrival time, at no extra charge. At train stations, ports, hotels, offices and private addresses, 15 minutes of waiting are included. For extended delays, our team will assist you in finding the most suitable solution.

  • Skis, boots and oversized bags

    Declare skis, golf clubs and oversized bags when you book, so the office assigns a vehicle with the right boot, an SUV or a van.
