Transportation
from Geneva airport:
- a bus for the conference participants will leave from Geneva airport at 11am on Tuesday. In the arrivals hall, you take the exit for the parking, continue straight and then you’re there. Search for a small bus from "Autocars Pays de Savoie" with a sign "LAPP".
- the bus 272 connect Geneva airport to Annecy train station . It is at the same location as for the LAPP bus. You can book the tickets from the Mobile CFF App or pay directly on the bus.
- there is also a train from the airport station with a change in Geneva Cornavin that you can also book from Mobile CFF App or buy the tickets on the train station. Between 4:30-7:00pm, you may prefer to take the train as the traffic is very busy in the direction from Switzerland to France (in the morning between 7:30-9am it is in the opposite direction).

The bus that connects LAPP (stop Campus) to the train station (and the city center) is the bus number 1. You can check the map, timetable and buy ticket from the Mobile Sibra App. sibra_Ligne-1
