Private jet charter in Courchevel

Courchevel Altiport (CVF) at 2,008m elevation is the world highest commercial airport and the only altiport in France. It is open in winter only (December to April). Larger aircraft land at Geneva or Chambery, with helicopter or car transfer to the resort.

Only aircraft certified for mountain operations can use CVF, including Pilatus PC-12, TBM series, and some light twins. Most private jets use Geneva (GVA) or Chambery (CMF) as alternates with 1.5 to 2 hour road transfer.

Courchevel is approximately 160 km from Geneva Airport, around 1.5 to 2 hours by road in good conditions. Helicopter transfer from Geneva takes approximately 25 minutes and is the preferred option for most private jet clients.
