Your journey from Lyon Airport to Tignes
The journey and traffic
Allow approximately 3 hours for your transfer from Lyon Airport to Tignes in good traffic conditions. Traffic and poor weather can increase the journey time. On Saturdays, journeys towards ski resorts can be busier around 16:00–19:00, especially during winter changeovers. If any part of your journey overlaps this period, allow an extra 30 minutes for the drive; this allowance is not needed automatically for every Saturday transfer.

What pickup time should I choose after my flight lands at Lyon Airport?
Allow approximately 30–50 minutes after landing for Schengen arrivals without routine passport control. For arrivals requiring passport control, allow at least approximately 40 minutes on weekdays, 60 on Saturdays or 50 on Sundays. Particularly busy periods may require 80–100 minutes or longer.
Timing depends on baggage collection, nationality and travel documents. Ask us via website chat for help.
What pickup time should I choose for my return to Lyon Airport?
In normal conditions, choose pickup from Tignes 5 hours 30 minutes before your flight. This allows approximately 3 hours’ driving, targeting airport arrival approximately 2 hours 30 minutes before departure.
If your Saturday drive overlaps the typical 08:00–11:00 busy period, allow 30 extra minutes on the road: choose pickup 6 hours before departure. Heavy traffic or poor weather may require more time; follow any longer airline check-in guidance.
If we notice an unsuitable selected pickup time, we’ll contact you and recommend an alternative. Website chat can help with planning.
