Lyon Airport (LYS) to Grenoble Airport (GNB) covers 110 km in about 1 hour 15 minutes on the A43/A48, a short run south-east toward the mountains. A private car makes it simple for connecting flights, positioning legs, or business travel between the two regional hubs, without a train change or rental car.
Route overview
Lyon and Grenoble are close enough that most people wouldn’t think to fly directly, but the airports themselves aren’t linked by a fast, direct rail service — so a rebooked connection or a two-city work trip usually ends up in a car. The motorway runs south-east from Lyon toward the mountains, reaching Grenoble well before the terrain properly climbs.
A private transfer means you’re not working out a station change or an unmetered taxi — one driver, one fixed price, door to door between the two terminals.
Your private transfer
Your driver waits at Lyon Airport arrivals with a name board, loading luggage before heading south-east on the A43 and A48 toward the Grenoble basin, with the first Alpine foothills coming into view on the approach. Pickup is timed to your actual landing, and you’re dropped directly at the Grenoble Airport terminal with no changes along the way.
