Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Flaine flights, but not Geneva?

Never done it, but have done 4 seasons of transfers all over the alps.

GVA is 1 hr +/- 5 mins.
Grenoble, Lyon, Chambery all > 2 hrs even going through the Gorges D'Arly.
Turin and Zurich are gonna be > 3hrs.

Also most Grand Massif transfers are ex GVA, so that might complicate things too.

The question is: What offences have you committed in CH that keep you from the obvious?

Might not be an offence but a visa issue... We had clients who couldn't go into switzerland as it was a pita to get the visa.

In which case the easiest answer is fly into GVA but dont disembark via switzerland but via France and directly into the EU..

Flaine without flight to Geneva - why not take the trains?

I went to Flaine via Lyon and got the train. It was in the days before British Airways became London Airways and we got airmiles from Birmingham.

I've not done anything wrong, I'm sat in a transfer to Geneva (from flaine) as I type this. Lol!

It was just a question as I read an article in the hotel on people driving after a flight into Lyon.

Thinking about a sneaky extra trip next year and just wondered if it works out cheaper.

Driving out of the question with 2 children from Northumberland.

yep, have met family visitors who couldn't enter CH. They exited through French side of Geneva (bit of a pain with baggage, my sister in law, who had the right passport, had to go and get it all whilst her hubby stood around waiting). I drove them out through Bardonnex (ie along the Swiss motorway) via the Ferney Voltaire border post where, as usual, we weren't asked for passports.

If we had been asked I had the route from Ferney, without touching Switzerland, ready to go but that takes a fair bit longer.
