Arrival at Chambéry
Chambéry Airport (CMF) sits at the foot of the valley, around 110 km from Courchevel by the D915 through Moutiers and Bozel. It's the practical entry point for clients flying in privately or on a short connecting flight rather than routing through Geneva. We arrange the handover around your flight, whether you plan to drive yourself up the valley or have a chauffeur meet you for the final stretch into 1850 or 1650.
Documents And Flight Details
Share your flight number, arrival time and driving licence details when you book so the handover is ready before you land. A valid licence is required, and the exact terms for your rental are set out at booking rather than assumed. Chambéry has no single fixed meeting point we promise across every reservation, so collection details are confirmed individually for your booking.
Choosing A Car For The Climb
The last 30 km out of Moutiers rise through switchbacks that reward grip over raw speed. In winter, an AWD SUV such as the Audi SQ7, or something in that class, paired with winter tyres or chains, is the sensible choice. Once the road clears in summer, the same route suits almost anything in the fleet, including GT and convertible options for clients continuing on toward Annecy or staying through the warmer months.
Returning The Vehicle
Coordinate your return with your outbound flight from CMF when you book, so the last handover matches your schedule instead of working against it. Fuel, mileage and condition terms, along with how the security deposit is handled and released, are explained at the point of booking.

Arrival details
Collection at Chambéry Airport is arranged around your flight rather than a fixed desk.
- Provide your flight number and estimated landing time when you book.
- Confirm passport or driving licence details in advance for the rental agreement.

- Check the car and paperwork together before setting off on the D915.

Chambéry Airport Handover FAQ
A quick read of what most rental clients ask before booking.
-
What licence and age do I need to rent a car at Chambéry Airport?
A valid driving licence is required. Minimum age and any licence-holding period depend on the vehicle you select, and these details are confirmed at the time of booking.
-
Can the car be delivered somewhere other than the airport, like our chalet or a hotel?
Yes. Vehicles can be handed over at Chambéry Airport, at your residence, or at a hotel, with a driver available on request if you would rather not take the D915 yourself.
-
How does the security deposit work for a Chambéry pickup?
A security deposit applies to the rental and its terms, including how and when it is released, are confirmed at the time of booking.
-
Do I need a 4x4 or winter tyres for the drive up from Chambéry?
For the winter approach through Moutiers and Bozel, an AWD vehicle fitted with winter tyres or chains is the sensible choice and is often required on the resort approach roads in season. In summer the same route is manageable in most of the fleet.
-
Can I book a car for the same day as my flight into Chambéry?
It depends on what is available for your dates. During peak periods such as Christmas or February school holidays, booking well ahead is advisable; outside those windows, get in touch to check what can be arranged closer to your travel date.
