Oyonnax Away November 14th

Post by Bring Humph On!! »

Anyone going or thinking of going?

I've booked Aer Lingus Dublin - Geneva Friday AM returning Sunday AM.

I booked directly with hotel so not sure. I checked Booking & Hotels websites & didn't appear to be much choice.

Car hire doesn't seem too expensive & appears to be best way to get from airport to Oyonnax. Just means an early start on Sunday.

I haven't checked to be fair but can't imagine there would be one early enough on the Sunday for my flight.

Or was that a statement?

2 of us booked in there as well - not the cheapest hotel but looks a better quality than the usual French cupboard size hotel rooms

AFAIK the train station on Oynx is open as they are selling tickets from Geneva to there (mate reckons return train tickets are £76 WTF) with that in mind we may look at hiring a car as well though arrive in Geneva 0-940 and depart sunday evening around 20-35 if anyone else fits in with those times and wants to car share ?

It's a Bus Substitution Service AFAIK. Think permanent like 'Ballinderry' rather than 'Bomb scare at Lurgan'.
