After leaving Geneva Airport, the route usually reaches the French border within a few minutes. Border checks are uncommon, although controls may occasionally appear during busy weekends or holiday periods. On weekday evenings, traffic can build up around Geneva’s ring roads before the drive joins the A41 motorway towards Annecy. The route then continues along Lake Annecy, where drivers often choose the quieter side of the lake depending on traffic conditions. Beyond Ugine and Albertville — historically linked to the 1992 Winter Olympics — the road follows the N90 deeper into the Tarentaise Valley. Near Aime, the route leaves the main valley road and begins the climb towards La Plagne. The final section passes through forested slopes and a series of high-altitude villages connected to the Paradiski ski area, with wider mountain views appearing on the upper part of the ascent.

Arrival at a busy hub like Geneva airport is seamless with our local team:

Arrivals Hall Meet & Greet: Your driver will be waiting in the arrivals hall (Terminal 1) holding a sign with your name. Note! Even if you are arriving on a domestic flight from within France (like Paris or Nice), always exit through the Swiss Sector (International side). This is where our drivers meet you. If you accidentally exit into the French sector, you will have to walk through the terminal to find us, which can take an extra 15 minutes.

90 Minutes Free Waiting: We know that baggage carousels or passport control at GVA can be slow. We include up to 90 minutes of free waiting time from the moment your flight lands. If you are delayed beyond this, our driver will still be there for you, though a standard hourly waiting fee may apply to cover the driver's time.

Pro-Tip: GVA offers excellent free Wi-Fi. Connect as soon as you land so you can stay in touch with your driver via WhatsApp or the contact details provided in your booking voucher.

La Plagne is one of the largest ski areas in the world, and it shows in the number of places you can stay. Multiple sites spread across the mountain, connected by lifts and shuttle buses, each with its own character and altitude. The high-altitude sites — Plagne Centre, Bellecôte, Plagne 1800, Belle Plagne, Plagne Villages, Plagne Soleil, Plagne Aime 2000 — all sit above 1800 m and are ski-in/ski-out. More traditional in feel and set among trees at the edge of the ski area. No access restrictions across the resort. Make sure the specific site and your accommodation name are in your booking — in a resort this size, the right address matters from the start.
