Geneva International Airport (GVA) is one of the busiest airports in Europe. It's a major hub for airlines such as EasyJet, Transavia, KLM, and British Airways.

Over 13 million passengers arrive at Geneva airport each year and it has more than 120 direct international flight destinations.

During the winter Geneva is without a doubt the most popular airport - used by skiers and snowboarders travelling to ski resorts such as Tignes, Les Arcs and Méribel.

It's situated between the Jura mountain range and the huge Lake of Geneva (or Lac Léman). So, which ever way you approach, the landing view from the aircraft is spectacular.

The airport has a legal responsibility to the environment and has set high objectives - check out Geneva airport's environmental page.

Geneva airport is around 4 kilometres from the centre of the city of Geneva, Genève in French (pronounced Jen-ev).

It's easy to travel between the airport and the city by bus or train and only takes 5 minutes. The city centre is beautiful and is a nice way to spend a morning if you have some spare time.

The train station is just outside the main terminal - it takes about 5 minutes to walk there. It's an easy walk, with escalators down to the platforms.

Trains to the city centre are extremely frequent. They arrive at Geneva's central station - Gare Cornavin - which is the first stop.

We have recently used Mountain Rescue for the first time from Geneva to St Foy and would definitely recommend them. Communication is clear, with e-mails and text messages detailing pick up and drop off points. We were picked up by Steve who was exactly where he said he would be, the van was 150m away from the Airports front doors. We got to St Foy quickly and safely and the vans were great. On our return journey we woke to 1 foot of fresh snow in resort and on the roads. As it was an early pick up (4.30am) we were worried that Steve would not make it up to the resort, but he did and he managed to beat the snow plough. I don't think we would of made it out on time or safely if it hadn't of been for Steve. Overall great service and would definitely recommend and use again

Came up with a solution to get us off the mountain when trains were cancelled at short notice.

We were a party of 12 travelling between Geneva airport to Les Arcs. Communication via email before the journey was excellent. I had a few enquiries all that were answered to my satisfaction. The day before travel I received a text message and email confirming the pick up time and lead driver name with phone numbers if any issues. There were no issues the mini buses arrived 5 mins early for pick up. Once on board the drivers were very friendly and helpful and the interior was comfy and exceptionally clean. The journey there was smooth. 48 hours before the return journey I was advised by mountain rescue transfers to have an earlier pick up time. This allowed us to avoid the half term traffic which we would have been caught in if not for the advice received. Again pick up was on time and both drivers again excellent. A fabulous service from start to finish and more than happy to recommend mountain rescue transfers.. Thank you MRT

Highly recommend Mountain Rescue Transfers, the booking process was very simple and Simon was on hand to answer all our queries - we were travelling with babies so we had a lot! Both our arrival transfer and departure transfer were prompt, with very nice drivers (Robert & Bill). I would recommend Mountain Rescue Transfers to anyone and look forward to booking with them again.
