FAQ — Shuttle Lyon Airport

What is the Rhônexpress and how much does it cost?

The Rhônexpress is a tram-train linking Lyon Part-Dieu station directly to Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport (LYS) in 29 minutes. Adult single fare: €16.4. It runs from approximately 6am to midnight. Note: it only departs from Part-Dieu — if you are not staying near that station, you need to add metro or taxi time.

Is there a direct shuttle from Lyon to the airport?

The only direct public shuttle from Lyon city centre to Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport is the Rhônexpress (from Part-Dieu only). For departures from addresses outside Part-Dieu, a private transfer (from €60 for the whole vehicle) is usually faster and more convenient — especially for families or travellers with luggage.

Is there a shuttle from Grenoble to Lyon Airport?

There is no direct shuttle from Grenoble to Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport. The options are: (1) TER train Grenoble → Lyon Part-Dieu (1h15) + Rhônexpress (29 min) = 2 connections, 2h+ total. (2) TAL private transfer direct, approximately 1h15 by car, €120 fixed price including tolls — a much more practical option for early flights or with luggage.

When is the private transfer better than the Rhônexpress?

The Rhônexpress is ideal for solo travellers departing from near Part-Dieu. A private transfer is better when: (1) you are travelling from outside Lyon centre; (2) you have more than 1 piece of luggage; (3) your flight departs before 6am or after midnight; (4) you are 2+ people (combined Rhônexpress fares at €32.80 vs €60 per vehicle for TAL).

Is there a shuttle from Annecy to Lyon Airport?

There is no direct public shuttle from Annecy to Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport. TAL offers a direct private transfer from Annecy to LYS at €148 fixed price — approximately 1h30 to 1h45 by car. This is the most practical option for travellers from Annecy, Chambéry or the Savoie region.

Rhônexpress not the right option?

Private pickup at your door, 24/7, fixed price confirmed at booking.
