Travel



Flying



The quickest and usually cheapest way to get here - you need to fly to Geneva, ( check out the flight links below ). It's less than 2 hrs in the air and then it’s about an hour transfer to Chamonix ( transfers not included with any paragliding holidays, although they can be organised ). We will keep you on file from the moment you book and will E-Mail you when the relevant flights are first released. If booking close to departure date, also try BA, Swissair, Monarch and us for cheaper flights. Having flown Easy Jet with a paraglider before I can tell you that you will get 10kg extra bagage allowance (for any sporting equipment) but my paraglider bag didn't fit on the scales (too wide) so they took my word for it that it weighed 15kg . . .ahem ;)

Driving



It is also a real easy drive ( 8hrs from Calais if you take the auto-routes ). You can download directions below . . . . . with 4 sharing and a reasonable motor, it will cost you about £75 rtn. each for petrol and tolls. You won’t need snow tires or chains even in the winter as the roads to Cham are always cleared quickly. AA 5 Star or similar on the other hand isn’t such a bad idea . . .
