Even during the school holidays there were some bargain flights to be had when avoiding weekends and if you can get in to Lyon early enough there’s a cheap direct train to Mo\u00fbtiers that connects with the bus service up to La Tania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we missed the train, had to pay again, go later and longer – another reason to use one of our recommended Private and Shared Transfer Companies to La Tania<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And yes, we had no bags, weren’t in a rush, didn\u2019t care where we sat and certainly had no kids in tow but it would take something to beat these prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wizzair London Gatwick to Lyon \u00a316.99<\/strong>
Variable pricing and a ridiculous 06:05 departure time but members prices start from only \u00a312.99 (but obviously not on a Saturday). There\u2019s also an easyJet option at 08:20 for a more reasonable departure time but generally costs a bit more. They both stitch you up if you have any kind of baggage bigger than a handbag \/ laptop size case to fit under the seat in front of you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ouigo Train Lyon Airport to Mo\u00fbtiers \u20ac10<\/strong>
Departs daily at 12:34 from Lyon Airport direct to Mo\u00fbtiers (although still via Grenoble and Albertville with some long stops at these stations) arriving 15:38 – so takes 3hrs 4mins. The RyanAir of TGV with dynamic pricing and charges for baggage, flexibility, seats etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

S65 Service Bus Mo\u00fbtiers to La Tania \u20ac10.80<\/strong>
Leaves Mo\u00fbtiers at 15:55 arriving La Tania at 16:49 – this one goes via M\u00e9ribel hence the journey time. Buying on the bus or ticket office costs \u00a312. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So make that 16.99 + 8.55 + 9.24 = \u00a334.78<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

The alternative if you miss this train (like we did this week due to a 2 hour delay with easyJet!) is to follow this itinerary which costs around \u00a340. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
