The return from Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise follows smaller alpine roads through wooded slopes and quieter upper valley sections towards Bourg-Saint-Maurice. From there, the N90 heads west through Moûtiers and Albertville before the route continues alongside Lake Annecy and north towards Geneva on the motorway.

On Saturday mornings, the N90 between Bourg-Saint-Maurice and Moûtiers sees sustained outbound traffic from the upper Tarentaise. The upper road from Sainte-Foy is usually calmer, but the main valley sections carry heavy traffic during peak ski season.

We calculate your pickup time. Geneva Airport operates on a night curfew — the terminal closes late evening and doesn't reopen until early morning. We factor all of this in when we schedule your transfer to Geneva Airport: terminal operating hours, check-in deadlines, and expected traffic on your route. In peak ski season, we often recommend departing 2–3 hours earlier than you might expect. Mountain traffic on busy Saturdays can add significant time to the journey. You may end up waiting longer at the airport — but that's a much better outcome than missing your flight. You can set your own preferred departure time, but we'll always flag if we think it carries a risk. Your driver drops you off at Terminal 1, Departures level — the standard drop-off point for all flights from GVA.
