Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Trying to work out which airport to fly to for my stay in Meribel.
We are 2 (no drivers licence) and will be carrying 1xSki + 1xSnowboard.
Distance wise Chambery is the closest and the bus is 50 Euros return (1 change) This flight is most expensive tho.
Cheapest flight is to Geneva but transfer would be much longer and can’t seem to find a good return transfer deal. Any recommendations?
Grenoble any better?
thanks

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

Chambery is very prone to long long delays in bad weather, Ive done 14 hours in the airport with young kids in tow, Nightmare!

I'll be hitting Geneva on 30th December and heading for Meribel. I might be needing a bus (if my lazy rep mate can't get a car), so I'm interested in this info too.
Cheers,
Grim
edit: aah poo! I just noticed bensbus only do Saturdays! I'm going wednesday to Thursday! blast you cheap easyjet flights!! I'm still interested in how long it'll take though
edit2: DOH! I should really read the relevant website in full before posting (or editing!). The contact us page (http://www.bensbus.co.uk/contactus.php) on the bensbus site gives good info about how long the journey takes:
Geneva Airport
From Geneva airport (GVA) we only run ski transfers to Meribel, Val Thorens, Moutiers, Mottaret, Les Menuires, Brides-les-Bains, Les Allues, Saint Jean de Belleville and Saint Martin de Belleville. This route is only run on Saturdays, takes between 3hrs and 3hr 30 mins and costs £65pp for a return. We do not run transfers to Courchevel but you can get off at Moutiers and take a public bus or taxi up to Courchevel.
