Advantages: Close to city

Disadvantages: None

The airport of Geneva is only 10 kilometres away from the centre of the town. It is located on the border between France and Switzerland and in fact it has a French part and Swiss part. The French part only serves national flights, while the Swiss one is a international hub.

I flew to this airport both with Swissair and with Easyjet.

Arriving at the airport, you walk through the passport control, where on the right you have the queu for Non EU members and on the left for European citizens. Waiting time was 5 minutes.

Straight after that, you collect your luggage. It was fast both with Easyjet and with Swiss.

You then leave and you will find the taxi rank in front of you, or the train station on your left.

Take a train, because it is cheaper than a taxi and even faster. It is 3.20 Swiss francs, approximatively 1.40 pounds. When you fly back, you will have some duty free shops before the luggage check and after them. You have 3 terminals, the entrance to terminal B is below the stairs.

Summary: Good airport
