As Air Alpes entered into the 1970s many improvements were made at the air"Altiports" which Air Alpes found almost exclusive niches. Among these were the Couchevel Airport which is upgraded. The runway has been moved by 18 degrees in comparison with the previous one. An Air-terminal chalet, and a 30 m × 40 m hangar complete the new facilities
March 1, marks the inauguration of new facilities at the Megève Altiport including a pavement tarred runway of 400 m × 40 m with a medium slope of 8% and provisions for year around snow removal. Megève will become one of the world's best equipped Altiports with an optical guidance system AVASI, a VHF communication system, Weather Station and a Fire Brigade.
