Private airport transfer from Zurich Airport to Zürs am Arlberg
Taxi Anton provides a private airport transfer from Zurich Airport (ZRH) directly to Zürs am Arlberg. The vehicle is reserved for your group only: no unrelated passengers, no scheduled stops and no train or bus changes. Your group. Your vehicle. Direct to Zürs.
Zürs lies at about 1,700 m, one of the highest ski villages on the Arlberg, and is reached only over the Flexen Pass road. There is no railway station, so a direct transfer from the arrivals hall to the door of your hotel, chalet or apartment is the simplest way to arrive with skis, winter luggage and children. Smooth, reliable and well-organised from airport pickup to hotel drop-off.

The route from Zurich Airport to Zürs
We do not drive via St. Anton. On most days we go east past Winterthur and St. Gallen, cross into Austria at Diepoldsau and follow the Rhine valley and the Klostertal past Feldkirch and Bludenz to Langen am Arlberg. From Langen we climb through Stuben and over the Flexen Pass – Zürs is the first village at the top, before Lech.
When Google Maps shows it is quicker on the day, we take the A3 along the Walensee instead, past Sargans and up the Swiss A13, crossing into Austria at Feldkirch.
The Flexen Pass road is cleared and kept open in winter. Snowfall and weekend ski traffic can make the drive longer, and our experienced local drivers plan it around the conditions on the day. Travel with confidence and peace of mind from Zurich Airport to Zürs.
What if the Flexen Pass is closed?
Rarely – only on days with very high avalanche danger, sometimes for a few hours, sometimes until the next morning. There is no other road into Zürs, so we watch the road status and call you before you land. In practice, hotels in Zürs usually find their guests a room for the night elsewhere on the Arlberg; we drive you there and agree the onward journey to Zürs with you as soon as the road reopens.
Skiing from Zürs
Zürs is part of Ski Arlberg: the Flexenbahn links it with Stuben and St. Anton, and Lech is the next village down the road. Once you are settled in, you can ski the whole area from your hotel door – and for evenings in Lech or après-ski in St. Anton, our local taxi from St. Anton to Zürs drives both ways.
What is the best way to get from Zurich Airport to Zürs?
For families, groups and skiers, the easiest way is a private taxi: about 2 h 15 min, straight to your hotel, from €460 per car. Without a car, Zürs means a train and a bus, because the village has no railway station.
| Taxi | Train + bus | Rental car | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Door to door | ✅ Airport to your hotel | ❌ Station, then bus up to Zürs | ⚠️ You drive yourself |
| Changes | ✅ None | ⚠️ Usually one or more, then Langen or St. Anton | ✅ None |
| With skis and suitcases | ✅ Easy | ⚠️ Carrying bags between train and bus | ⚠️ Needs a big car |
| Late or delayed flight | ✅ We track your flight | ⚠️ Fixed timetable | ✅ Yes |
| Flexen Pass in winter | ✅ Local driver, 4×4, chains | ✅ No driving | ⚠️ You drive the mountain pass |
| Best for | Families, groups, ski luggage, late arrivals | Single travellers with light luggage | Travellers who need a car all week |
Our honest advice: alone with a small bag and plenty of time, the train and bus will do; with family, skis or a late flight, take the taxi.
Travelling by train or shared shuttle from Zurich Airport
By train: The railway station is right at the airport, with many trains a day towards the Arlberg. Most connections need one or more changes – for example in Zürich HB, Buchs SG, St. Margrethen, Feldkirch or Bludenz, depending on the train – and the whole journey can take up to around 3½ hours. Train fares are roughly CHF 61 to CHF 110 per person, depending on the connection, the ticket and where you buy it; check the SBB or ÖBB timetable for your flight time. For Zürs, get off at Langen am Arlberg – if your train stops there; some trains stop only at St. Anton. From the station, the last part over the Flexen Pass is by bus or taxi.
By shared shuttle: In winter, the Arlberg Express shared shuttle runs from Zurich Airport to the Arlberg villages, including Zürs, for around €65 per person; the drive takes about 3 to 3½ hours, depending on the stop. Because one run serves several villages – with stops such as Hohenems, Bludenz and Stuben on the way – it takes longer than a direct transfer. It follows a fixed timetable rather than your flight and drops you at set stops in the village, not at your hotel – check the operator’s website for current departures and fares.
By private taxi: no train changes, no fixed departure time, no carrying skis between platforms and no extra bus or taxi at the end – from the arrivals hall straight to your hotel door. Your group. Your vehicle. Airport to hotel, door to door.
Train and shuttle fares are approximate (winter 2026/27) and set by the operators.
What about a rental car?
A rental car makes sense if you want to tour the region – for a ski week in Zürs it mostly stays parked. After heavy snowfall spaces are scarce, many hotels have only a few, and garages and paid car parks in resorts like Lech and St. Anton are expensive. Add snowy or icy roads over the Arlberg and the Flexen Pass, snow chains at the roadside and, for UK and Irish drivers, driving on the right.
No parking. No snow chains. No unfamiliar winter roads – just a direct transfer to your door.
Skis, snowboards, luggage and child seats
Skis, snowboards, ski boots and normal holiday luggage travel free, and every car has room for winter equipment. Tell us how many suitcases and ski bags you have so we send the right vehicle. Child seats and boosters are free on request – just give us the children’s ages when you book.
Winter-ready 4×4 vehicles
We drive to Zürs in a VW Caravelle 4Motion or a Mercedes Vito 4MATIC – both all-wheel drive, with winter tyres and snow chains, leather seats, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and room for up to 8 passengers with luggage. Built for the climb from Langen over the Flexen Pass.
