Taxi & Transfers from Megeve to Geneva Airport

How to Get from Megève to Geneva Airport

We’ve gathered the best ways to get from Megève to Geneva Airport. Cost — from around €11 for the cheapest route to about €240 for a private car. Travel time? Between 1 hour 15 minutes and 2.5 hours, depending on how you go.

The distance is about 85 km through mountain roads. That might not sound like much, but weather and transfers can slow things down. If you want a smooth ride, booking a taxi-transfer from Megève to Geneva Airport is the easiest way to skip the planning part.

By Bus

One of the most popular options is a direct shuttle with AlpyBus. Buses run multiple times a day between Megève’s coach station and Geneva Airport. The trip takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.

Prices start at around €41 when booked in advance. It's convenient and affordable — great if you're traveling light and don’t mind sharing the ride.

Keep in mind: in winter, buses can run late due to snowy roads. Also, seats fill fast during the ski season, so early booking helps.

By Train

There’s no direct train from Megève, but you can take a short local bus to Sallanches station and catch a train from there to Geneva. It’s scenic, but includes at least one change and takes 2 to 2.5 hours total.

Fares start around €11, making it a budget-friendly choice. However, it's less practical if you’re carrying ski gear or have an early flight — transfers take time, and delays happen.

By Taxi

Taking a taxi all the way to the airport is possible — and pretty popular among travelers leaving resorts. The ride takes about 1 hour 15 minutes under good road conditions.

The cost ranges from €180 to €240 depending on time of day, luggage, and snow conditions. It’s not cheap, but offers a comfortable door-to-door experience, especially for groups or families.

Ask the driver about fixed rates and make sure they’re licensed for cross-border travel if needed.

By Private Transfer

Want less thinking and more relaxing? Book a taxi-transfer from Megève to Geneva Airport with Kiwitaxi. You get picked up at your chalet or hotel, your bags are loaded, and you go straight to the terminal. Easy.

Shared transfers start from €32 per person, and private rides from €180 per vehicle. You can choose your car class, add child seats, request a driver who speaks English, or bring your pet along. It’s all arranged in advance.

Traveling with Children

Mountain transfers aren’t fun with a tired kid on your lap and skis in hand. Waiting for the bus or making train changes just adds to the stress.

With Kiwitaxi, you can book a child seat, get picked up at your door, and head straight to Geneva without a single transfer. You ride together, and the little ones stay safe and settled.

Traveling with Pets

Ski resorts and public transport don’t always play nice with animals. Some allow pets, some don’t. Some days it’s fine — others, it’s not.

Private transfers make it simple. Select the pet option when booking, and your driver shows up ready for the whole family — paws included.

What to Expect at Geneva Airport

Once you get there, Geneva Airport is well-organized and modern. It’s not huge, but can be busy, especially on weekends and holiday changeover days. Arriving early helps.

There are cafes, shops, and ski luggage services near the check-in areas. It’s clean and runs smoothly — as long as you beat the rush.

And if you arrived without juggling buses, trains, or snowy suitcases? Even better. The hardest part of the trip is already behind you.
