Courchevel Airport Transfer

Geneva Airport

With connections across Europe and long-haul flights, Geneva Airport welcomes most of the skiers who stay in Courchevel, particularly from December to April. The drive takes around two and a half hours in normal conditions, via the Tarentaise road.

Our chauffeur tracks your flight number in real time and adjusts the pick-up time in the arrivals hall to the actual traffic rather than the scheduled time, a real advantage in high season when landing slots tighten in Geneva.

On peak changeover days, thousands of cars converge on the Tarentaise at the same time and queues build from Albertville onwards: leaving at the right moment and knowing live road conditions saves precious time over the whole journey.

Ski luggage, baby seats and booster seats are arranged when you book, for a smooth arrival all the way to your accommodation in Courchevel.

Geneva's arrivals terminal has a Swiss sector and a French sector: your chauffeur tells you the exact meeting point for your flight in advance, so there is no waiting once you have your bags. The route then follows the motorway to Albertville and the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers, before the final climb to Courchevel.

Chambéry Airport

Closer to Courchevel than Geneva, Chambéry is a sensible alternative for flights serving the Savoie directly, especially in high season when several airlines run seasonal charter routes.

The drive from Chambéry to Courchevel is considerably shorter than from Geneva, a welcome advantage for flights landing late in the day or in the evening, when travel fatigue is already setting in.

A chauffeur who knows the mountain roads between Chambéry and the Tarentaise inside out avoids poorly cleared minor routes after snowfall, a point to watch on this more direct route.

Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport focuses on the winter season, with particularly heavy traffic on ski-holiday changeover weekends: your chauffeur tracks the actual landing time to be in the arrivals hall as soon as the bags come out, even if the flight is delayed.

The route quickly reaches the Tarentaise valley via Albertville and Moûtiers, before climbing to the resort's different levels. Baby seat, booster seat and a boot suited to ski bags are arranged when you book, for a smooth transfer to the door of your accommodation.

Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport

Lyon-Saint Exupéry complements Geneva and Chambéry for flights that do not serve the Savoie directly, particularly long-haul connections passing through this larger hub.

The journey to Courchevel is by motorway and usually takes longer than from Chambéry, but with the advantage of a wider choice of flights and more international connections.

Whichever airport you arrive at, the price is fixed in advance and your chauffeur waits for you in the arrivals hall, so you never depend on a taxi or shared transport being available.

Lyon-Saint Exupéry is served by many international airlines, making it a practical option for travellers from North America, the Middle East or Asia when connections to Geneva do not suit their travel plans.

Your chauffeur greets you in the arrivals hall with a name board, takes care of your luggage and settles you into a vehicle equipped for the mountains. The drive along the motorway and up the Tarentaise valley gives you time to rest after a long flight, with a break on the way if you wish.

Grenoble-Isère Airport

Every winter, Grenoble-Isère welcomes seasonal charter flights from the United Kingdom and other European countries, aimed specifically at winter sports travellers heading for the Savoie.

The drive to Courchevel takes a little over two hours, joining the route used from Chambéry via the A43 and then the N90, with extra care needed on the final climb when it snows.

A charter flight landing late on a Saturday morning, the weekly changeover day, calls for a pick-up planned well ahead to absorb the time needed to disembark and collect ski luggage.

Grenoble-Isère remains a small-scale airport where passing through controls and collecting luggage is generally quicker than at the major hubs, a welcome advantage at the end of a busy week when several charter flights land one after another.

Our chauffeur knows the different possible routes between the Isère and the Tarentaise and chooses the best one for the day's road conditions and traffic. Ski luggage, pushchairs and bulky equipment fit in a Mercedes V-Class, or a Sprinter for larger groups.

Outside the charter season, Grenoble remains accessible all year round for travellers coming from the south of France or Spain.

Paris Charles de Gaulle and Orly, for international travellers

For travellers from North America, Asia or the Middle East, Paris Charles de Gaulle is often the connecting airport before a second flight to Geneva, Chambéry or Lyon, or a direct road journey when the schedule demands it.

A transfer directly from Paris, around seven hours by road to Courchevel, makes most sense after a missed connection or for a group that prefers a single journey by private vehicle to a second domestic flight.

Our team coordinates this kind of long-distance journey case by case, with a change of chauffeur if needed, for an arrival organised from start to finish whatever the airport of origin.

For a long-distance journey like this, the vehicle is chosen for comfort over several hours: spacious seats, adjustable air conditioning, charging points and enough room for the whole family's or group's luggage, ski equipment included.

Breaks are planned along the way as you wish, and your arrival in Courchevel can be timed with the handover of your chalet keys or your hotel check-in, so your stay begins without waiting the moment you step out of the vehicle.
