Swiss, French & Italian Alps Access

Zurich Airport provides access to Swiss, French, and Italian ski resorts. Swiss destinations like St. Moritz, Davos, and Zermatt require no border formalities. French resorts like Chamonix, Val d'Isère, and Courchevel involve crossing the border, but our drivers are experienced with international transfers and handle all necessary documentation. Italian resorts like Courmayeur and Breuil-Cervinia are also accessible. Our drivers are familiar with all Alpine routes and can navigate mountain roads safely in winter conditions.

Peak Season Considerations

During peak ski season (Christmas/New Year, February half-term, and Easter holidays), roads to major resorts can be busy, particularly on Saturday changeover days. We recommend booking early-morning or late-afternoon transfers to avoid the busiest periods. Our drivers are familiar with alternative routes and can navigate traffic efficiently to minimize your journey time.

Winter Driving & Safety

All our vehicles are equipped with winter tires (mandatory in Alpine regions) and snow chains. Our professional drivers have extensive experience driving in winter mountain conditions and are trained in safe Alpine driving techniques. We continuously monitor weather conditions and road closures, proactively communicating any potential delays or route changes.

Fixed-Price Transparency

Unlike taxi meters or ride-sharing apps, our Zurich Airport transfer prices are fixed and agreed upon at booking. The price includes all tolls (Swiss vignette, French autoroutes, and Italian autostrade), fuel, driver gratuity, meet-and-greet service, flight monitoring, and 60 minutes of waiting time. There are no hidden fees or surge pricing. What you see is what you pay.

Airport Meeting Point

Your driver will meet you in the arrivals hall of Zurich Airport, holding a sign with your name. We'll provide exact meeting instructions and your driver's contact details 24 hours before your transfer. The arrivals hall is well-signposted after you collect your luggage. For groups requiring multiple vehicles, we coordinate everything to ensure everyone departs together.

Simply mention this when booking or discuss it with your driver. Brief stops (15-20 minutes) are usually included at no extra charge.

Payment can be made in advance online when booking, or directly to the driver at the end of your journey. We also provide VAT invoices for business travelers who need receipts for expense claims. For corporate accounts, we offer monthly invoicing.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking as soon as you have your flight details, especially during peak season (Christmas, New Year, February half-term, Easter) when demand is highest. However, we can often accommodate last-minute bookings with as little as 24 hours' notice, subject to availability. Early booking also gives you peace of mind and locks in your fixed price. You can always modify your booking later if your flight times change.
