Transfers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re travelling with younger children, then taking a\u00a0private transfer<\/strong>\u00a0from the airport to Meg\u00e8ve may be easier for you. The vehicle will be exclusively yours, so it means you don\u2019t have to wait at the airport for as long and you won\u2019t have to make numerous stops along the way for other passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re a group of friends, or travelling alone, then a\u00a0shared transfer<\/strong>\u00a0may be a better option. Shared transfers are more cost effective, but you may be limited to more restrictive timings and longer waits, as well as having to make more stops on the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
