FAQ
Frequently asked
Chambéry or Geneva to reach Courchevel?
Chambéry is closer, so the flight is shorter. Geneva offers more slots and international connections. The choice mostly depends on how you arrive in the region.
Is the airport open to helicopters year-round?
Helicopter activity there is highly seasonal and concentrated in winter. Off-season, departing from Geneva or Lyon is often easier to arrange.
How much time do we save against driving?
It depends on the day. Midweek outside holidays, the road stays reasonable. On a February changeover Saturday it can triple, while flight time does not move.
