What Time Will My Driver Collect Me?
The most important part of a departure transfer is arriving at check-in with time to spare. As a guide we work back from your flight: roughly 1h 52min of driving, plus about two hours for check-in and security, plus a sensible buffer for the mountain descent — around 4.5 hours of total lead time from this resort. For a 13:00 flight from Chambéry, that means a pickup of about 08:30. When you book we confirm an exact collection time for your specific flight, so you never have to guess.

Departure Day, Made Easy
The journey starts with the descent of the famous twenty-one hairpins from Alpe d’Huez to Le Bourg-d’Oisans — 30 to 45 minutes of continuous exposed altitude loss, the road the Tour de France made its own, and the section where winter driving experience matters most. Our vehicles run on winter tyres with chains carried as standard, so the bends are routine rather than a gamble. From Le Bourg-d’Oisans the D1091 follows the Romanche valley down to Vizille, skirts Grenoble, and the A41 and A43 carry you north to Chambéry Airport — fast, reliable motorway for the second half of the trip. On peak Saturdays, when the whole Oisans empties through Le Bourg-d’Oisans at once, we build extra margin into your pickup time rather than hoping the queue is short. One private vehicle takes your whole group from the door to the terminal — and if you booked your outbound with us too, we already have your details on file and simply time the return to your flight.

Yes. Skis, snowboards, boot bags and standard luggage travel at no extra charge. Let us know your bag count when booking so we send a vehicle with enough space.
Do you monitor traffic and conditions on departure day?
We plan Alpe d’Huez departures around known busy periods — especially Saturday changeover days, when Oisans traffic converges on Le Bourg-d’Oisans and the Grenoble ring road slows — and build in margin so the descent and valley traffic never put your flight at risk.

Absolutely. Most guests book both directions at once. Book your Chambéry Airport to Alpe d’Huez arrival and your Alpe d’Huez return together, and we coordinate both around your flights.
