Your journey from Geneva to Méribel
Geneva has two terminals. While most flights arrive at T1, you may land at T2, so we have designated meeting points for each. If you land at T1, we'll meet you on the Swiss side, next to the Hub café.
We use Geneva Airport's designated minibus parking, choosing the easiest option to keep things simple for our customers.
Leaving Switzerland, we follow the A41 towards Annecy. We normally take the route around Lac d'Annecy rather than the Chambéry toll road. The distance is shorter and there are no toll fees, so it makes for a more efficient, cost-effective transfer. We also find the Chambéry toll road tends to get blocked on Saturdays.
Travelling around Lac d'Annecy is a particularly picturesque part of the journey. The mountains rise up behind the lake as you go, and you'll start to feel the holiday has already begun.
We're happy to stop if needed, so feel free to ask your driver for a short break. We also offer shopping stops, though these must be booked in advance.
Through Albertville and up to Méribel
After Annecy, we pass Albertville on the motorway, then the small town of Moûtiers, where we begin the climb up the mountain road towards the Three Valleys ski area. From Moûtiers, it's another 20km up the winding road to Méribel.
We'll take you direct to your accommodation door and see you safely in. The next time you'll hear from us is the afternoon before your departure, when we'll send a text reminder of your pick-up time and the driver's number.
At Geneva airport
Geneva Airport has two terminals and we have designated meeting points at both. Meeting points are explained on our booking confirmation form for a nice and smooth meet and greet.

Plan your journey
Expect the transfer time to be around 2.5 hours, though this can extend on Saturdays. We recommend landing in Geneva early to beat the Saturday rush — the same goes for your return, so book an early flight to get on the road sooner. When departing resort, expect pick-up around 4.5 hours before your flight time.
Supermarkets on the way to Méribel
Supermarket stops can and must be booked in advance - a great way to arrive prepared at your accommodation. Our favoured shop stop on route to Méribel is Carrefour in Moûtiers.
