Which airport is best for Gerlos?

There are three airports to choose from for your transfer to Gerlos. Which one suits you best depends on where you fly from, how much time you plan for the journey and how big your group is. As our prices are per vehicle, a longer route is often worthwhile if you travel together. Here is an overview of the pros and cons.

Our recommendation

INN

Transfer Innsbruck Airport – Gerlos

the closest airport to Gerlos

approx. 81 kmapprox. 76 minfrom €149

At around 81 km, Innsbruck Airport is the closest airport to Gerlos. The drive takes about 76 minutes, via the Inn Valley motorway A12 into the Zillertal and then up the Gerlos road. From €149 per vehicle, the airport transfer from Innsbruck is the cheapest option.

This is our home base: your driver awaits you in the arrivals hall with a name sign, helps you with your luggage and takes you straight to your hotel. If your flight is delayed, we track it – the waiting time costs you nothing.

SZG

Transfer Salzburg Airport – Gerlos

Alternative for charter flights

approx. 180 kmapprox. 138 minfrom €379

Salzburg Airport is particularly interesting in winter, with many charter and direct flights. It is about 180 km to Gerlos, and the drive takes about two and a half hours.

The transfer is particularly worthwhile for families and groups, as you pay from €379 per vehicle, not per person. Your driver contacts you after landing and takes you with your luggage and ski equipment straight to your hotel.

MUC

Transfer Munich Airport – Gerlos

many connections, often cheap flights

approx. 197 kmapprox. 149 minfrom €379

Munich is one of the largest airports in Europe. Especially when travelling from Germany, from overseas or with low-cost airlines, you will often find the cheapest fares here. The route to Gerlos is about 197 km and the drive takes about two and a half hours.

As it often takes a long time to reach the exit at large airports after landing, your driver first waits outside the terminal. After landing he contacts you, and as soon as you have your luggage, he drives straight to the terminal and picks you up there. The fixed price from €379 per vehicle stays the same even in traffic jams.

Our tip

If you have the choice, fly to Innsbruck: shortest drive, cheapest transfer and quickest on the slopes. If you can’t find a suitable flight, Salzburg and Munich are good alternatives.

Our driver Ismail was very professional and oferred a 5-star service.
Our airline lost part of our luggage and Ismail waited patiently for us to complete all the forms and leave the airport. On the ride to our hotel he tried to tell us that everything will be fine and was very accommodating as we spent time on the phone talking to the airline.

All in all this was a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to use their services again

Very good experience. Return trip INN airport - Gerlos. Both transfers were pleasant. Nice drivers, on time, and had arrived even ahead of schedule and were waiting for me. Everything went smoothly and as agreed in emails even though I had to reschedule both transfers. Early booking discount and easy payment.

Martine K.April 2026

We had an incredible experience with this car service during a very stressful and complicated situation.My friend had a serious foot and ankle injury while traveling alone in Austria. She couldn’t walk and needed to keep her leg elevated, and had to get from the Innsbruck hospital all the way to the Munich airport, where she was staying overnight at the airport hotel before her flight.A special thank you to her driver, Umut, who was absolutely amazing!!! He went above and beyond in every possible way. When they arrived at the airport hotel, the staff initially said they didn’t have a wheelchair and that her room was on the second floor and she should be able to get there on her own—which was not possible in her condition. Umut stepped in, made sure they provided a wheelchair, and didn’t just leave—he ensured she got safely all the way to her room.The car itself was spotless, comfortable, and perfect for the long drive, and Umut was an excellent driver—smooth, safe, and professional the entire time.On top of that, I had sent the company a few (honestly a bit annoying) emails—one making sure they were aware of her situation (which I had already included in the booking), and another asking to adjust the pickup time. Not only did they respond incredibly quickly, they were extremely kind, accommodating, and reassuring every step of the way.Knowing she was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind. We are beyond grateful!!!! I HIGHLY recommend this service!

I had Tim as my driver. As soon as I walked out of baggage claim he was waiting with my name displayed. I had a 1hr drive and we talked the entire time. He was very friendly giving me background on Austria and other small towns. We talked about a lot. Safe driving and I arrived on time to my hotel. Hoping to get him on my return drive back to Innsbruck Airport.

Krystle S.December 2022

Excellent service. Driver waiting at airport with signage. Taxi a short walk outside the terminal. Clean and modern car. Pick up from hotel to return to the airport was also excellent. Received a message 15 minutes early to inform me car was waiting outside hotel. Would definitely recommend Alpstria Taxis.

Erkut was an excellent driver for our family. We had a seamless connection at Innsbruck train station to Füssen. We were offered water for the trip and Erkut pointed out some sights and landmarks during the drive. We felt very safe and confident in his driving ability. Thanks Erkut and Alpstria for a great ride.
