re: Help with France!
There is a Newcastle to Geneva flight with Easyjet and I think the transfer time to Valloire is around 3-4 hours although it was a few years ago so can't be sure.Also did you consider Birmingham to either Geneva or Grenoble with Easyjet or Liverpool and Glasgow to Grenoble with Ryanair.
re: Help with France!
Hope to keep the transfer as short as possible, wherever we fly from. Looking at North East Airportsre: Help with France!

Check out the Grenoble Airport site that gives details of connections and flights for this winter.
But do not rule out Lyon airport which is only about 30 minutes further away than Grenoble airport. Grenoble airport is a long way outside Grenoble...but there are good connections with both airports.

We will be going back to France and Bulgaria next year...and the French holiday will probably work out cheaper than the Bulgarian trip!

re: Help with France!
newcastle to chambery return less than a £100 for march, chambery airport 100km from valloire and have ski transfer bus running to all resorts from airport..thinks its about 70 euro return..grenoble airport miles away from grenoble which in turn is 130 km from valloire..
id would suggest booking sharpish though..
re: Help with France!
