Airport selection & considerations

Sion (SIR / LSGS), in the Rhône valley, is an arrival option for Valais. Instrument approaches require an airport-specific crew qualification. The aircraft operator checks aircraft suitability and the conditions applicable to the flight.

Handling, operating hours & availability

Approach qualification, weather and operating hours are checked before confirmation. We coordinate handling and international arrivals with the operator and ground team. If conditions prevent a flight into Sion, a suitable alternate airport must be used. We therefore discuss the onward journey from an alternate during planning.

Onward travel & baggage

A chauffeur can take you to Crans-Montana. For car-free Zermatt, we plan a helicopter connection or onward travel via Täsch. A helicopter needs suitable weather and a confirmed landing site; a direct hotel landing is not assumed. Ski luggage and any separate baggage transport are agreed with our partners.

Helicopter and luggage transfers are assessed separately.

Your questions. Clearly answered.

Does the crew need a specific qualification for Sion?

Instrument approaches require an airport-specific qualification. The operator checks the requirements for the planned flight and whether the crew and aircraft meet them. A jet category alone does not establish suitability.

Can a private jet land at Sion in any weather?

No. Weather and the approach conditions applicable to the flight may prevent a landing. A suitable alternate airport therefore belongs in the plan. Geneva may be an option; availability and the longer onward journey are assessed separately.

We can arrange a chauffeur through local partners or assess a weather-dependent helicopter connection. The road alternative for Zermatt runs via Täsch, followed by a transfer into the car-free village.
