I'm sure price is a consideration, but have you considered other routings? Brussels sells VCE-BRU-GVA for EUR 121 on some days, and it departs early, so you should get there within the day even with IRROPS
Also, what about flying to Basel or Zurich and then taking the train to Geneva? I know easyjet flies to both, but probably not direct from VCE. The train service BSL/ZRH-GVA is pretty reliable, but you still need a morning-ish flight
I know those options sucks! but what can i do?
i've seen SN for 149Eur, but i don't want to pay more than the main flight (even if it was something like an error fare!)
but, mainly, consider that even if i spend 273 Eur with SN, i can't take the early morning flight because, in that case, i've to make another connection in Bruxelles and BRU in early morning has a mid-risk of delays (experience), so in that case i have to take the evening flight+hotel and this increase the costs a lot and do not worth the effort!
do you think the train is a big risk? i was wondering if there's a website who reports on-time statistics about train..and i would think that 11h gap would be enough to solve eventual delays?!
