@Jonny996, me too. I'll look out for a bloke with a suitcase sticker "my other car is a Porsche" 
Geneva airport website says the French side is open for car rental and access via the French road. It's the airport operations - check in, baggage etc. that are closed.

Just to check - based on the latest update from the Swiss govt we no longer need to do Swiss PLF as of the 17th ?

@Vessigaud, Yep, that's how read it.
Also France scrapping the pre-flight test means that, if fully vaxxed and an adult, you have to do nothing if flying to Geneva from UK and transiting into France!

I see you don't need a Swiss PLF but will i need to do a french PLF to travel into France and a uk PLF to come home? thanks

As I understand it you don’t now need either if flying into Switzerland and then transfer by bus or car to France would be grateful for someone who actually knows to confirm!
Also - do we need to download French covid app to get into any venues or does our nhs (Scotland) covid status app suffice?
Thanks very much in advance!

@Johnov, You can 'pre-fill' the form online, but cannot finish it off until you are within 48 hours of arrival in the UK

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Hi can anyone assist with - do we need to download French covid app to get into any venues or does our nhs (Scotland) covid status app suffice?

You know it makes sense.

So we went belt and braces and have both the TAC and NHS ones - arrived in Morzine today and so far haven't been asked anywhere to scan it -
However you should be ok with just the NHS one - although it does need a data connection whereas the TAC app doesn't - although loads of ideas of how to show the QR code on many threads (add as wallpaper on phone / print & laminate)

Used NHS one exclusively last week (5 - 13) in AdH. Keep a copy on your phone (files,walllet, lock screen photo) and you don't need a data connection. Was asked to show it in most bars and restaurants and some lift queues.

As per @halfhand, we have been using NHS QR code in iPhone wallet on numerous trips to PDS this season and never an issue. It works offline as all the info is contained in the QR code itself. Also a good idea to have others in group to send a screen shot of theirs to the trips WhatsApp group so they can access via another phone in the party in case of flat battery or forgotten / lost phone.
Trimmed screenshot of iPhone wallet QR can also be uploaded to Swiss and U.K. locator forms as well as Eurotunnel .

Just returned from a long weekend to Morillon, going through Geneva and hiring a car from the French side of the airport (cheaper than the Swiss side, but with downsides: ours did not have winter tyres (not a problem), or satnav (slightly annoying), no Swiss vignette for the motorway (not a problem with planning) and had not been cleaned since the previous (smoker) renter - ugh).
Anyway, I've done this route a few times, though not for a few years (thanks covid). So I can't remember if it was required before, but in order to transfer from the Swiss side to the French side after collecting bags and clearing customs:
YOU NEED TO SHOW YOUR BOARDING CARD FROM THE FLIGHT YOU'VE JUST ARRIVED ON.
So, if you're travelling with a paper version, don't bin it until you're through to the car rental desks!
Hopefully this will be useful to someone.
