Geneva airport is served by Easyjet , but is a long transfer from the chalet. Chambery and Valence are also possibilities. All three of the above would be options for those wishing to self drive, but it might be difficult to arrange transfers from these airports, particularly if guests are also arriving at other airports on the same day.
