Davos from Innsbruck Airport

The route

From Innsbruck Airport the drive heads west on the Inntal motorway to the Reschenpass, Meran, St. Moritz exit. From there it runs through the Landeck tunnel into the upper Inn valley and on via Pfunds to Martina, where we cross into Switzerland. This is where the Engadine begins, the valley of the Inn.

From the Engadine there are two ways to Davos: over the Flüela Pass, or by car train through the Vereina tunnel. The car train leaves from Sagliains in the Lower Engadine and takes around 18 minutes through the 19-kilometre tunnel to Selfranga near Klosters. From there it is only a few kilometres to Davos.

In winter the car train is usually the best option, as the Flüela Pass is often closed. The Rhaetian Railway runs it every half hour through the day, and it is reliable.

Depending on the route and the weather, the drive takes two and a half to three and a half hours in total. Our vehicles carry full winter equipment from 1 November onwards.

Switzerland is in the Schengen area but not the EU, and passport and customs checks at the Martina crossing are more common than at other borders. Please keep your travel documents with you during the drive. Tolls, vignettes and, where needed, the Vereina car train are included in the fixed price and never added on afterwards.

Davos stretches for many kilometres along the valley, with several districts. We drive to any address in the municipality of Davos at the same fixed price.

Private transfer vs. public transport

The private transfer runs straight from the arrivals hall to your accommodation, whatever time you land, with no changes and no hauling gear and luggage between trains and buses.

The fixed price is per vehicle, not per person: two people pay the same as seven, gear and luggage included. The longer the route, the further it comes in below the cost of individual public transport tickets, and with Swiss rail fares on the last leg, that is especially true here.

By public transport, Davos is a full day’s journey from Innsbruck Airport: from the airport into town, by train to Landeck, by PostBus across the border into the Engadine, then on the Rhaetian Railway to Davos. Several changes, several operators, and timetables that pay no attention to flight times. If you land in Innsbruck in the late afternoon, you will struggle to reach Davos the same day.

When you travel

Davos has one week a year that overshadows everything else: the World Economic Forum in January. During that week, wide-ranging traffic and access restrictions apply in town, security checks are extensive, and accommodation is booked up long in advance.

If you want to arrive during the World Economic Forum, please contact us before you book. The restrictions may affect your exact address in Davos, and the drive then needs its own plan. That way we avoid any unpleasant surprises on the way.

Apart from that, the ski season runs from December to April on Parsenn, Jakobshorn, Rinerhorn and the other Davos mountains. At around 1,560 metres Davos sits high and is reliably snow-sure. In summer the region is a popular hiking and biking destination, and we drive the route all year round.

Night arrivals cost the same as daytime ones.

Arrival and meeting point

Your driver will be waiting in the arrivals hall with a name sign. Before you travel we send you the vehicle’s make, model and registration, along with your driver’s name and phone number.

Always give us your flight number when you book. We then track your flight in real time and allow for delays, diversions and early landings automatically. We wait 60 minutes free of charge after landing, which covers passport control and baggage reclaim.

On this route the flight number matters even more. With a drive of several hours and a car train that runs to a fixed timetable, we can only plan the departure properly if we know when you actually land.

Please switch off flight mode on your mobile phone once you land, so we can reach you.

The return journey: Davos to Innsbruck Airport

The return journey also has a fixed price, just like the outbound. We collect you from your departure address. You are welcome to book the return when you book your outbound transfer, or at a later date.

On departure day we plan particularly generously, so that you reach the terminal around two hours before your flight. Please take an early pickup time seriously and do not push it back: your driver knows the route, the traffic and the road conditions, and our aim is to get you to your flight without stress.

Easily confused

Davos and Klosters-Serneus are marketed together as one ski area, but they are two separate places some distance apart. This page and its fixed price cover Davos only, not Klosters-Serneus.
