Geneva International Airport is situated just to the north of the Swiss city of Geneva, on the Swiss-French border. A novel and very useful feature of the airport is its French Sector. This provides a direct route into and out of France without passing through Swiss border controls. Geneva airport is particularly popular in the ski season, thanks to its proximity to several major alpine ski resorts.

Note: Car hire at Geneva Airport is available on both the French and Swiss sides of the airport. To change your selection to the French side of the airport, simply change the Country to France and choose 'Geneva - Airport French Side' from the Pickup location list.

Geneva International Airport is perhaps unique among major airports in offering exits into two countries. The airport's French sector allows passengers to arrive and leave without passing through Swiss border controls - and without requiring a Swiss visa. This facility also enables passengers on flights from Paris to remain within France - as if they had taken a domestic flight.

Geneva Airport has a single terminal which is coupled with the longest runway in Switzerland to provide the capability for more than 190,000 aircraft movements each year. Around 10 million passengers pass through the airport every year and there are direct flights from Geneva airport to more than 100 destinations, via 50 scheduled airlines and 100 charter airlines.

The terminal building is home to more than 60 shops and other services - including a comprehensive selection of car hire and rental companies, offering rentals from both the French and Swiss sides of the airports (specify when booking).
