Peak season:
The warmest time of the year is July and August, although it’s also when there are big crowds of tourists. You’ll find it almost impossible to find cheap flights to Geneva during the summer, especially if there is a festival or event on such as the Swiss National day at the beginning of August. The city hosts several events and music festivals over the summer so you’ll need to book your flights to Geneva a few months in advance to make a saving on your flight tickets. Early spring is a good time of year to visit as the crowds are smaller and the weather is still reasonable. You’ll also have a much better chance of finding cheap flights to Geneva around spring and late autumn. December can be very busy with Christmas and New Year holidays so if you want a Christmas getaway make sure to secure your flight tickets early.
Off Season:
October to November and April to May are generally when you’ll find the cheapest flights to Geneva but you’ll still need to book in advance. The downside is that some hotels are not open so it might be a good idea to make sure you can secure the kind of accommodation you would like before you book your flights to Geneva.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Geneva, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, July is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 20.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 2.0 C).
Geneva is a good place to visit all throughout the year but if you are wanting a warm holiday then secure your flights to Geneva for between June and August. Secure your flight tickets as early in the year as you can as cheap flights to Geneva are difficult to find, especially during the peak season. If you opt for a quieter holiday with less events and tourists then any time outside of June to August will be pleasant. Again you’ll need to secure your flight tickets in advance as even in the off season it can be hard to find the cheapest flights to Geneva. When you are booking your flights to Geneva try to secure seats on the left side of the plane for a chance of spectacular views before you land.

Located just 4km (2.5 miles) from the centre of Geneva, Geneva Cointrin International Airport offers excellent rail and bus connections. A quirk of its location on the French-Swiss border is the separate French and Swiss sectors of the airport, each of which maintains their own customs channel.
Queues for check-in and security are notoriously long and frustrating, especially at peak periods. Unfortunately, once you get past it there isn’t much to do, as there are only a couple of shops and restaurants.
Flights to Geneva Cointrin International Airport are easy to find from destinations all over Europe and the Middle East, including London, Glasgow, Paris, Vienna, Madrid, Moscow, Rome, Casablanca, Dubai, Tel Aviv, Bahrain, Amsterdam, Athens and Lisbon. There are also a handful of inter-continental flights to Montreal and Washington DC.
