If I get a private taxi from Geneva Airport to Morzine without pre-booking, how much should I expect to pay?
I am putting together a last minute trip and booking my transfer in advance may not be possible.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Just trying to get to resort as quickly as possible so thinking a taxi would be ideal.

Exactly how last minute are we talking?
While you can't walk up to the desks at Geneva airport and buy a shared minibus transfer seat I've just popped on to ski-lifts.com (the company I use for Geneva-Morzine transfers) and their website's happy to give me a price for a transfer tomorrow morning (£72.68pp for minimal wait shared transfer/£65.42 if willing to accept potentially longer wait). Hell, I just tried changing it to a flight landing at 6pm today and it was willing to give me (the same) price!
My guess is the taxi lobby managed to get a block on walk-up transfers so, much like a mini-cab in the UK they can only take pre-booked passengers. Hell, drop them a line and I bet you could probably go online while you're waiting in baggage reclaim and book one - though obviously the later you book and the busier they are the greater the chance of no transfers/a wait for a space. You'd always have the fall-back of an expensive cab ride.

@Mjit, most companies block last minute bookings say 24 hours in advance to avoid unexpected bookings but you are correct a call to us or other companies, even in the arrivals hall will normally get you a seat.
As said above we can’t take walk ins.

As an indication it’s €170 to Chatel using the local Chatel taxi company, or €200 after 7pm. The walk-up taxi rank at airport once quoted me ~€400 one way.
