Saving a Packet on French Alps Ski Transfers

Travellers heading for a ski holiday to the French Alps often think that once their flights are taken care of, the bulk of their travel expenses are taken care of. However, there are dozens of instances every day when this proves not to be the case at all for one simple reason – they haven’t factored in their resort transfers upon arrival at Geneva Airport…or Chambery, Lyon, Grenoble, Turin or anywhere else, for that matter.

Geneva Alps Transfers – Why Not to Drive

Geneva airport is one of the most well-connected and serviced in the world by way of transfers to and from dozens of ski resorts across the French Alps, though thousands of travellers each and every year continue to insist on crowding the narrow roads with their own vehicles. Of course, the appeal of stepping off the plane at the airport and immediately taking ownership of a rental car seems obvious, but in these kinds of environments there are so many…

Demanding More from Geneva Airport Ski Resort Transfers

Demanding More from Geneva Airport Ski Resort Transfers

Avoiding Excess Luggage Charges

Avoiding Excess Luggage Charges

How we all know the deep joy of scoring that bewilderingly cheap seat on a budget airline, only to find out further down the line that the additional charges and fees mean a private jet might have been cheaper. A slight exaggeration perhaps, but studies have shown in no uncertain terms that once baggage charges, supplements and God knows what else has been added on, so-called “budget” airlines can be far more expensive than their un-budget counterparts!
