Chambery Airport
Chambery Airport is situated just north
of the city. The last three years have seen a great increase in
the availability of flights here from the UK. FlyBe and Excel have
regular arrivals at very reasonable prices. Chambery is also the
nearest airport to the resorts in our area making for some very short transfers
which are, for the large part on motorways.
The down side to Chambery Airport is that it is very small. There
is only one shop and one cafe on-site and on Saturdays the terminal
can be very busy. It is also situated in a fairly narrow valley
which can attract bad weather resulting in flight delays or
diversions on occasion. Having said that, when everything runs smoothly
it can make for an incredibly convenient and cheap transfer.
Val D'Isere
Along with Tignes, Val D'Isere makes
up the huge Esapce Killy ski area with around 300 kms of pistes.
It is well known for it's good off-piste and snowboard parks. With
the Glacier in Tignes the area boasts a long season and good conditions
can usually be found somewhere in the resort even after long periods
without snow. The town itself (1950 metres) is very picturesque,
nestled in a narrow valley with tradionally built chalets and some
very nice hotels. There is a full range of restaurants, bars and
clubs but prices can be higher than many of the other local resorts.
Chambery to Val D'Isere Transfer - 145kms - approx. 2hrs
