Sankt Anton am Arlberg ski resort in the Austrian Alps

Private Helicopter
to Sankt Anton

Austria's most celebrated ski resort, reached in approximately three and a half hours. No airports, no transfers, no connection: just the Alps below you as you descend.

The Alps,
without the
airport

A private helicopter to Sankt Anton am Arlberg covers the distance in approximately three and a half hours: arriving directly into Austria's most prestigious ski resort, without a single airport queue or luggage carousel.

Sankt Anton am Arlberg is, by common agreement among serious skiers, the finest ski resort in Austria: possibly in the Alps. Its combination of challenging terrain, the legendary après-ski culture of the Arlberg, and an increasingly sophisticated hotel and dining scene makes it a destination that rewards those willing to reach it. The conventional journey from the Netherlands involves flights, transfers, airport waits and a final drive from Innsbruck or Zürich that can itself take two hours. A private helicopter to Sankt Anton removes all of this, entirely.

For those who value the winter season at its best, helicopter charter to Sankt Anton is not an extravagance: it is a practical solution to a genuinely difficult journey. The flight time of approximately three and a half hours compares to a total door-to-door time of nine to twelve hours by conventional means, once airport procedures, connection times and the Alpine transfer are included. You arrive composed, with your gear, at your preferred hour.

Flights can be arranged from locations across the Netherlands, depending on regulations, conditions and operational feasibility. For longer routes such as this one, international flight plan requirements are managed entirely by our operations team.

Amsterdam to Sankt Anton:
time by mode

By car
9–10 hr

Via Germany and Austria: Innsbruck, then the Arlberg pass. An exhausting drive that most clients no longer consider for a winter journey with equipment.

Plane + transfer
6–8+ hr

Amsterdam to Innsbruck or Zürich by commercial aviation, then transfer to the resort by taxi or road transfer. Airport queues, luggage handling and connection risk on both legs.

Despite the flight time, helicopter travel eliminates transfers, waiting times and airport procedures: making the overall journey to Sankt Anton significantly more efficient and the arrival experience incomparable to any ground or commercial alternative.

Why this route
makes sense

Four reasons helicopter charter changes the equation for this route for serious winter travellers.

No airport. No transfer. No compromise.

The conventional route to Sankt Anton involves at minimum two airports, a connection, baggage handling and a 90-minute Alpine transfer. A helicopter to Sankt Anton eliminates all of this. You depart from a convenient point in the Netherlands and arrive at the resort. That is the entire journey.

Your schedule, not the mountain's

Commercial flights to Innsbruck operate on a fixed schedule: and winter disruption, de-icing and connections regularly extend the journey. A private helicopter departs on your timetable. A powder day that requires an early start is your decision, not the airline's.

The approach over the Alps

Arriving at Sankt Anton by helicopter means approaching the Arlberg from the air: the Valluga, the Galzig, the resort bowl below you as you descend. It is a perspective that entirely reframes the destination before you have put on a single ski.

A resort without equal

Sankt Anton am Arlberg offers some of the most demanding and rewarding skiing in Europe: particularly off-piste in the Valluga and Rendl areas: combined with the legendary Mooserwirt and Krazy Kanguruh après-ski, and a hotel and chalet scene that has evolved considerably in recent years.
