Prepare your Geneva journey brief
- Arrival: If your flight uses Geneva International Airport (GVA) or Bern Airport (BRN), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Geneva hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
- An airport arrival with several stops: If your flight is booked at Geneva International Airport (GVA), use Lausanne arrival planning and Vevey arrival planning for the separate hotel or venue addresses. Say whether the enquiry covers one continuous itinerary or individual local transfers, with passengers and bags for each leg.
- Group and return: Include passengers, luggage and mobility needs. Put any return date, pickup time and departure flight or train in the message field.
Other stops to consider
Compare Geneva with these other destinations in Switzerland. Distances below are geographic references, not road distances or quoted journey times.
Geneva Airport: confirm P6 pickup and the airport sector
Genève Aéroport’s professional transport guidance places coach and shuttle passenger collection at P6, on the Arrivals level. It distinguishes this from passenger drop-off at Check-in level and states that P6 access is chargeable. Confirm the vehicle category, meeting instructions and included airport charges with the operator.
For your Geneva airport transfer, specify the flight, terminal and agreed airport sector. The airport publishes separate France Sector access instructions; do not change exit sectors based only on the hotel’s country. If the route continues into France, supply the full destination so operating arrangements and the appropriate pickup can be assessed together.
Palexpo: separate the passenger entrance from car parking
Palexpo’s access guide describes a walk from the airport railway station and publishes different stops for Palexpo and Hall 7. It also gives a two-metre height limit for car park P12. That car park is therefore not a suitable assumption for a full-size coach; agree a passenger stop and vehicle waiting arrangement with the event organiser.
Send the event name, hall, registration time and accessibility needs when requesting conference transport. A group coming straight from GVA should account for flight arrival, baggage collection and any luggage storage before event entry. Set the return pickup around the actual hall exit and event finish, and include a later hotel or restaurant transfer explicitly rather than assuming it follows the exhibition service.

Planning your Geneva journey
What is the distance between GVA and Geneva?
The airport and destination map references are approximately 5 km apart in a straight line. A road journey can differ substantially. Provide the actual address in Geneva; the map distance is not a promise of transfer time or fare.
Can we continue from Geneva to Lausanne?
Include the next stop in Lausanne and its address in the initial brief. State whether it is a short visit, an overnight stay or the final destination; those are different vehicle and driver requirements.
How do the Lausanne and Vevey stops compare from Geneva?
From the Geneva geographic reference, Lausanne is approximately 51.1 km away in a straight line and Vevey is 60.9 km away. A further destination reference is Montreux, approximately 64.2 km from Geneva. Compare the time needed at each visit before choosing the pickup order. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.
Where do private coaches collect arriving passengers at Geneva Airport?
The airport’s professional transport guidance directs coach and shuttle pickups to P6 at Arrivals level. Confirm the precise meeting point, vehicle arrangements and airport sector with your operator. Give the flight and terminal details and keep the lead passenger’s contact available; do not assume collection is possible at any terminal door.
