Meeting your driver at Friedrichshafen Airport
Before your flight arrives you get a message — by email, WhatsApp or SMS, whichever suits you — with your driver's name and mobile number, and the make, colour and registration number of the car that will be waiting. Not a company logo and a booking reference. The actual car and the actual person.
That is the part most transfer companies cannot do, because at the time you book they do not yet know who will be driving. We do.
What you receive before you land:
- Your driver's name
- Your driver's direct mobile number
- Make and colour of the car
- Registration number
- Sent by email, WhatsApp or SMS — your choice
Friedrichshafen is one of the quieter airports on the Arlberg run — one arrivals exit, and rarely a queue at it. Your driver messages you when he arrives and waits just past the doors with a sign with your name on it.
Ten to fifteen minutes from landing to the arrivals hall.
Bags delayed, wrong hall, phone dead. It happens, and none of it is a problem — you have your driver's direct mobile number, and he answers it. There is no call centre in between and no booking reference to quote. You are talking to the person standing in the arrivals hall.
The route
From Friedrichshafen Airport the route runs past the Bodensee to Bregenz, then south on the Rheintal motorway to Feldkirch and Bludenz, and up the S16 to the Arlberg. St. Anton am Arlberg sits right on the S16 — we leave the motorway and drive you straight to your door. In normal conditions it is roughly 140 km and about 1h 30min; we plan for realistic winter timing rather than a best-case number.
Winter conditions on the Arlberg
The Arlberg is winter country from November to April. The final climb over the pass or through the tunnel can see heavy snow, ice and the occasional closure. Our vehicles are 4x4, carry snow chains and are prepared for 2,000 m altitude — this is our home road in every condition, and if the pass closes we already know the alternatives.
What you will be travelling in
Down through the Rhine valley and up the Klostertal. Not a long drive, but the last stretch is the one that gets weather — which is where the winter setup stops being a spec sheet and starts being the reason you arrive.
| VW Caravelle | up to 8 passengers |
|---|---|
| Mercedes minivan | up to 7 passengers |
| Ski equipment | rear-door ski rack, outside the cabin |
| Winter setup | 4x4, winter tyres Nov–Apr, chains on board |
| Child seats | on request, no extra charge |
Prepared for 2,000 m and driven over the Arlberg all winter — not a motorway car that visits twice a year.
Private transfer vs. shared shuttle
This is a private transfer: the vehicle is yours alone, the price is per car not per seat, and we set off when you land — no waiting for a shuttle to fill, no other resorts on the way. Flight tracking is included, so your driver is there even if you are delayed.
