Grenoble Airport is an efficient little airport and 30 minutes is enough time to get through Customs and Baggage Reclaim.

This discount will be applied automatically when you select the number of children in the booking process. If you require booster seats we would kindly ask you to supply these yourselves. Most coaches only have 2 point lap belts so booster seats may not be necessary. For infants under 2 years old you have 2 options:

1. Children under 2 may legally sit on the parents knee and so can travel for free. Please Contact Us once you have booked to supply us with the infants' name. Please note the journey between Grenoble Airport and Aime does take around 2 hours 30 minutes.

2. If you would like your infant to sit in a child seat, you must Contact Us in advance to check that a suitable seat is available. We need to allocate you one of the front 4 seats to ensure you have a seat with a 3 point seat belt to securely fix your child seat. We will then ask you to pay the full fare for a child. We regretfully cannot provide you with child seats so you must bring your own.
