Keep your phone handy — that's the one thing that makes pickup at Lyon Airport smooth. Parking restrictions at LYS mean your driver coordinates pickup remotely. As soon as we see your flight has landed, we'll message you directly — just let us know when you've collected your bags and are ready to step outside, and your driver will be at the Arrivals exit to meet you. We monitor your flight in real time. The first 90 minutes after scheduled landing are included at no extra charge — plenty of time for baggage claim and customs. LYS has two connected terminals — T1 for most European and low-cost flights, T2 for international. Both share one building, so Arrivals is easy to navigate. One thing worth knowing: easyJet and some other low-cost carriers use Gate D, which sits in a satellite building linked to T1 by a tunnel — the walk out to Arrivals is slightly longer than it looks on paper. Nothing dramatic, but good to know if you're travelling light and moving fast.
The journey from Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport follows the A43 motorway towards Chambéry before continuing via Albertville into the Tarentaise Valley. After Moûtiers, the route turns south into the Belleville Valley, where the road gradually climbs through alpine villages and narrower mountain sections. During exceptionally busy ski weekends, transfers may occasionally avoid Chambéry traffic by rerouting through Grenoble. The ascent towards Les Menuires passes Saint-Martin-de-Belleville before reaching the higher-altitude ski areas of the Belleville Valley. The landscape becomes increasingly open and snowy near the resort, particularly during mid-winter.
Les Menuires sits at 1850 m in the Belleville valley, between Saint-Martin-de-Belleville below and Val Thorens above. The resort is built across several sectors — Reberty, Les Bruyères, La Croisette — each with its own access. Confirm your exact sector and address when you book.
