Helicopter Charter — Chambéry Airport to Alpe d'Huez
About 30 minutes from the runway to Altiport Henri-Giraud.
Indicative fares, excluding landing and waiting fees. The firm price is confirmed by the operator flying you.
Private helicopter from Chambéry Airport to Altiport Henri-Giraud, at around 1,860 m in the heart of the Grandes Rousses. The flight takes about 30 minutes; by road, the motorway then the twenty-one hairpins above Bourg-d'Oisans take 1 h 45 to 2 h 45 in season. Charter on request.
Time saving
About 30 minutes by helicopter against 1 h 45 to 2 h 45 by road — on winter Saturdays the A43 and the Romanche valley clog long before the hairpins begin.

Frequently asked questions
Can the helicopter connect with my flight into Chambéry?
+
Yes. Chambéry receives ski airline flights and private jets in winter; the helicopter departure is timed to your arrival, luggage included, and adjusted for delays within the weather window.
Is ski equipment carried?
+
Yes, in covers, in the hold. State the number of pairs at booking; from the altiport, your hotel or chalet is a few minutes away.
What happens if the weather closes the altiport?
+
The altiport requires visual flight conditions. If they are not met, the flight is brought forward, postponed or replaced by a chauffeured road transfer from Chambéry to the resort.
