Very well kept business airport in a valley N of Chambery by the famouse town and lake. Good VFR route to the SSW but the shortcut across the glider restricted area from the Lyon side saves about 20 miles.

Parking area is not huge with their grass parking out of action while they build a full length taxiway. Worth calling ahead - they wanted 48 hr PNR for the recent flyout - a few more bizjets and they would have been out of room.

Terminal is very new and has a nice little bar and restaurant - not very traditional but handy if stuck. Taxis into town should be metered and should be about 30 euros. Alternatively there is a bus Monday-Saturday every 20 minutes which is about 1 euro. (SimonM says be careful when picking the bus up at the station - the stop by the tobacconist saves you a long detour on what is a circular route crossing the station twice).

AVGAS 1.51 plus tax.
