Airport selection & considerations
Samedan (SMV / LSZS) is close to St. Moritz and the resorts of the Engadin. Not every private jet can land here. We select a suitable aircraft for your party and luggage, then plan the arrival around the journey to your hotel or chalet.
Handling, operating hours & availability
Samedan is particularly weather-dependent. If conditions prevent a landing, the flight must divert to a suitable alternate airport. We plan for this with the operator. Operating hours are seasonal; winter closing is linked to evening twilight. Handling, customs and required permissions are coordinated for your travel date.
Onward travel & baggage
We can arrange a chauffeur through local partners for St. Moritz, Pontresina or another address in the Engadin. Following a diversion, the onward journey is reassessed. Zurich may be an alternative after flight-specific checks. A helicopter is also weather-dependent and needs a confirmed landing site and sufficient payload. Skis or larger suitcases can travel separately where needed.
Location and time zone: airportsdata · as of 30 September 2026. Operating details are checked before booking.
Plan the alternative through to your hotel.
Tell us where you are staying and when you would like to arrive. The operator assesses conditions for both arrival and departure at Samedan. If the flight has to divert, we adjust the transfer. Zurich may be an alternative once acceptance and slots are confirmed. A chauffeur can take you into the Engadin; any helicopter connection is assessed separately, including weather and luggage.
Enquire about your flight and onward journey →Your questions. Clearly answered.
Can any private jet fly into Samedan?
Not every private jet can use Samedan. We select a suitable aircraft for your party and luggage. If weather prevents a landing, the flight must use another airport. We then coordinate your onward journey to St. Moritz with you.
What happens in poor weather in the Engadin?
If weather prevents a landing, the flight must divert to a suitable alternate airport. We discuss possible alternatives, such as Zurich, and the revised transfer in advance. A helicopter cannot operate in unsuitable conditions either.
Can I arrive late after an airline flight into Zurich?
We need your flight details to assess this. Samedan’s operating hours are seasonal, with winter closing linked to evening twilight. Handling, luggage and the connecting flight take additional time. If the connection is not feasible, we discuss another way to reach your destination.
