One word of advice: Do plan your transportation from Geneva Airport to Chamonix ahead, especially if you are arriving late!
Do not expect to find a shuttle waiting to take you to Chamonix. And, do not expect the people at the information desk at Geneva Airport to help you. Most of the transport companies seem to require advance reservations, so this is definitely one thing you do want to schedule in advance.
We did not plan ahead, but lucked out and were able to get a ride with the very friendly Mountain Drop Offs, a first rate transport service that dropped us right at our hotel after midnight. By all accounts EasyBus is the cheapest, and they will drop you off at the Chamonix Sud Bus Stop. This may not be ideal if you are staying down the valley in Les Houches and you are arriving late.
By the way, if you are coming from Lyon, ISI bus line will get you from Lyon to Chamonix for a very reasonable fare.
If you plan to buy your return tickets to the airport at the Chamonix Sud Bus Stop- beware of the fact that the office is closed from 1:00-3:00 and closes down early for the night.
