Arriving at the chalet on a perfect snowy morning
It’s a very short flight (1 hr 15min — 1 hr 25min) from the UK to Geneva. Plenty of airlines ply this route, many of them from the small and efficient London City Airport.
Once at Geneva, you are just 100 km from the chalet, via (in approximate order of convenience and expense) hire car, transfer, bus, or rail. More about flying
The route from Calais takes approximately eight hours and has many advantages — cheaper, less likely to be disrupted, no concerns about luggage. More on our Driving page
If you prefer not to fly, it’s possible to go via the Eurostar to Chamonix from London. Although this is a long journey, it’s very well scheduled and runs overnight, so you can get the train from London or Ashford after work, change in the evening in Paris and then go by sleeper. Snowcarbon is an excellent site with lots of good information on how to do this.
