Lyon Airport to Vaujany

Vaujany is a satellite resort of Alpe d’Huez, connected by ski pistes but not by road. Ben’s Bus transfers from Lyon Airport to Vaujany will drop you at Rochetaillee. This is a small village on the valley floor where the road splits to go to Alpe d’Huez and Vaujany. From here you can catch connecting taxis and buses for the short trip up to Vaujany. We also have a stop at Bourg d’Oisans. You can find more details about how to get from these stops to Vaujany in the sections below. Our transfers from Lyon Airport operate pretty much every day of the week, except Wednesdays. If you’re flying into Grenoble Airport (GNB), visit our Grenoble Airport to Vaujany page.

What if my flight is delayed?

Delayed Flight Lyon Airport Transfers When we think the airport will be busy, we allow more time, but generally we allow 45 minutes for customers to clear Passport Control and Baggage Reclaim.

If you are delayed, we can wait for you but we may not be able to wait longer than 15 minutes after your bus’ scheduled departure time. After that, provided there is space, you can travel on our next service, if there is one, for free. We leave empty seats on all our services for exactly this reason.

We monitor flight arrival times so you don’t need to contact us if you are delayed. Our team will be busy trying to accommodate you on another service. Or they may be holding the bus back. On Saturdays, when you come out of Arrivals, just find our rep and they will update you. On other days, please call the number on your eTicket.

Journey Time and onward transport from Rochetaillee

Vaujany Transfer Time The journey between Lyon Airport and Rochetaillee takes about 1 hour 50 minutes in normal traffic. The journey from Rochetaillee to Vaujany in a taxi is a further 25 minutes. To co-ordinate a swift changover, give the taxi driver your Ben’s Bus departure time from Lyon Airport. They will then suggest how to communicate with you on the day.

To see a list of bus companies and taxi firms, visit our Vaujany page and expand the section ONWARD TRANSPORT.

For your journey back to the airport, we allow more time when we know the travelling conditions may be bad, such as during the school holidays or at certain times of the day. Our buses need to pass along the Grenoble ring road and at rush hour on weekdays, we allow extra time for this.

You are flying out before you are flying in!!! Are you sure?

Your dates are very far apart. Are you really going skiing for that long?

Please note that our service only operates to Sainte Foy village, NOT Sainte Foy Station, which is the ski resort. Sainte Foy village is a short taxi ride from the ski resort of Sainte Foy and you will need to arrange additional transport for this short journey. More details can be found on our Sainte Foy page.

Are you sure this is the right stop in Serre Chevalier for you? We have 3 stops in total so it's important you choose the right one. Take a look at our Grenoble Airport to Serre Chevalier page and expand the section BUS STOP LOCATIONS to see our different stops.

The following are our rules on carrying and charging for children.

A Child must be between the age of 2 and 11 (inclusive) at the time of travel to receive the 10% child discount. Anyone 12 or older at the time of travel is defined as an "Adult" and must pay the full Adult fare. If your child requires a booster seat, we will need you to provide this yourself.

An Infant is defined as any child that would normally require a baby seat. You have 2 options if you are travelling with an Infant:

Your infant may legally sit on your lap for this journey and in this case, you do not need to pay for your infant. However, you may not sit on the front seats of the bus - that is the seats that are exposed to the windscreen. We will need you to email us the infants name once you have booked so we have an accurate list of all passengers.
If you wish your infant to be strapped into a baby seat, you must provide this yourself. In this case, you must book a seat on our service for this infant. You can select a Child in our booking system and therefore receive the 10% child discount.

For more detailed information on carrying children on all our services, please visit our Children's Page.

If you have any questions about the above, please do not hesitate to Contact Us.

Thank you for your understanding.

It is regrettable that children under the age of 4 years are not allowed to travel on our services. Unfortunately, some of the coaches that we operate use two-point lap belts which are not compatible with the majority of baby seats. Under Swiss law it is forbidden to transport babies on the parents lap. Any children 4 years old and above can travel on our service but will have to occupy an individual seat and pay the full fare.
