The helipad
Getting there
Geneva is the main air gateway to the French and Swiss Alps. Almost every helicopter transfer to the Savoie and Valais resorts starts here, because the airport concentrates international flights and sits closest to the ranges.
When to go
A pronounced winter peak from December to March, following resort changeover patterns. Summer activity towards the same valleys is more modest.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Which resort is quickest to reach from Geneva?
Megève, at 20 minutes' flight. Courchevel takes 30 minutes and Zermatt 35. By road the same journeys run from 1 h 15 to over 3 hours depending on the season.
What happens if weather prevents landing at an altiport?
Altiports require visual flight conditions. In poor weather the flight is postponed or diverted to a valley airport, with the last leg by chauffeured road transfer.
Is the transfer from the terminal included?
The handover between terminal and helicopter is arranged by the operator. Allow a margin after your airline arrival, particularly with hold baggage.
