Geneva flight paths
 

I'm currently looking for somewhere to live in Geneva. Because I work for the UN I'm looking at areas near there such as Bellevue, Pregny-Chambésy, Genthod and Versoix as possible locations. However, I understand that there may be an issue with noise from low-flying aircraft in these areas. Is there such a thing as a map of Geneva on which is overlaid the flight paths of aircraft taking off and landing from the airport, so that I can see which are the affected areas? Many thanks.

Flightradar24.com might be a starting point.

I just looked at their website and it showed aircraft flying close to three of the four neighborhoods you reference. The one not under the flight path was Pregny-Chambésy since it sits adjacent the airport.

When you go to the website, just drag the map to Geneva and center it on the airport.

What a great idea. I knew that website of course but I hadn't thought of using it for this purpose. Now that you mention it, it seems like just what I need. Thank you.

I live about 10 km from the airport, in the next village after Versoix. When landing the aircraft noise is generally not too bad, though as you approach the airport, in Genthod or Bellevue, directly under the flightpath, it can get noisy. When they take off towards the Northeast on 05, it's pretty noisy anywhere near the flightpath, at least as far as Coppet, Founex.
23 is used for landing about 60% of the time and 05 for takeoff about 40%, so we have about 60& landings here.
There are plenty of UN people living in the area and the main advantage is you're 10-15 minutes away from work or the airport.

You must be in Mies. I lived in Versoix years ago and each time I left it to go somewhere I could feel the noise dripping off me. I would never want to live there again. I'm in Territet now, by Montreux.

What about Les Avanchets for the OP? Apartments there can be quite cheap.

Thanks, I'll have a look there as well. I want a house with garden, though, not an apartment.
