Private Taxi & Airport Transfers from Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg

Munich Airport (MUC) to St. Anton am Arlberg is about 230 km over the Fernpass and takes around 3 hours. A private transfer with Taxi Anton costs from €640 per vehicle, one way — not per person — for up to eight passengers with luggage and ski equipment.

There are two roads and we drive both: about 230 km over the Fernpass, or about 298 km by way of Kufstein and the Inn valley. The first is far shorter but a real pass road; the second is motorway almost the whole way. Neither uses the Arlberg tunnel, because St. Anton is reached from the Tyrolean side — before it. Which road we take is the driver's call on the morning you arrive, and it makes no difference to the price.

Airport transfers on this route are priced the same in both directions. The fare covers every toll, skis and snowboards, child seats, and a door to door drive that ends in front of your accommodation. You can cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup.

Taxi Anton is a taxi company based in St. Anton am Arlberg — at the end of this route rather than the start of it. We do not pass work on to anyone: the cars are our own — Mercedes Minibus 4x4 and VW Caravelle Minibus 4x4 — and so are the drivers, experienced local drivers who know these roads.

The longest of our six approaches

Of the six airports we drive to St. Anton from, Munich is the furthest: 230 kilometres against 100 from Innsbruck. What it is instead is the international one — the airport of the six with the widest choice of long-haul connections. People who land here do it for the flight and not for the road, and that is a perfectly sound reason.

The only route that passes another of our own airports

About two thirds of the drive is behind you when the road goes past Innsbruck Airport — the airport that sits just a hundred kilometres from St. Anton. We write that down because it is true, and because it answers the question everyone asks. If the flight is what matters, Munich is the right choice; if only the road mattered, it was Innsbruck.

Which resort the transfer serves

St. Anton am Arlberg stands at 1,304 metres in the Stanzertal and is the largest of the five Arlberg resorts. All five share one lift pass, some 300 kilometres of piste and 85 lifts, and the lifts rise straight from the village. The season runs from early December to late April — more is in our guide to skiing on the Arlberg.

The skiing at the end of the drive

What the three hours are for becomes clear the next morning. The Galzigbahn and the Nassereinbahn lift you out of the village itself, the Rendl rises on the other side of the valley, and above all of it stands the Valluga at 2,811 metres. The slopes start where the transfer ends — on your first morning you need neither a car nor a bus.

Together with St. Christoph, Stuben, Zürs and Lech, the resort belongs to the Ski Arlberg area: around 300 kilometres of pistes and 85 lifts on one pass. For skiers who want the mountain away from the marked pistes as well, St. Anton has been an address for decades — and the slopes hold their snow because they sit high. Which part of the area suits which level is in our guide to skiing on the Arlberg.

Winter and summer transfers

Most of our Munich transfers run in winter, when the skiing is on. Summer transfers are quieter, but it is the same road and the same price — the same private transfers carry walkers and cyclists in July that carry skiers in February.

Ski transfers to St. Anton

Most of our winter work is ski transfers. Skis and snowboards travel free on the rear rack, outside the cabin — on a three-hour drive that is exactly the point, because eight people and eight ski bags fit in one vehicle instead of two. What travels and what travels free is on the luggage page.

Munich Airport to St. Anton Transfer: Price, Distance & Journey Time

A private transfer from Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg costs from €640 per vehicle, one way. The price is for the vehicle and not per person: two of you or eight of you, the figure is the same, in December as in July.

On a drive this long that is where a private transfer starts paying for itself as a group: a family or a ski group pays one fare between them, while every other option charges each of them separately — and over 230 kilometres that difference weighs more than it does on a short hop.

The Munich–St. Anton fare is priced against the same list as every other route we drive. It is fixed before you book and does not move on the day: no night surcharge, no holiday surcharge, and nothing added when snow makes the drive longer. Every fare is on the price list, and every route is on the airport transfer page.

The Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg Route

There are two roads from Munich Airport to St. Anton, and we drive both. They separate just after the airport and meet again at Imst; from there it is the same road. Which one we take is the driver's decision on the morning you arrive — and it makes no difference to the price.

The western road: over the Fernpass — about 230 km

The shorter of the two, and normally the one we drive. From Munich the A95 runs south to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the road crosses into Austria at Ehrwald, and then it climbs the Fernpass to 1,216 metres and drops to Nassereith in the Gurgltal. It is the better drive to look at — and a real pass road rather than a motorway.

The eastern road: via Kufstein and the Inn valley — about 298 km

Some sixty-eight kilometres longer, but motorway almost the whole way. The A8 runs south past Rosenheim, joins the A93, and crosses the border at Kufstein. From there the A12 follows the Inn valley through Wörgl and Innsbruck — where Innsbruck Airport sits directly on the route — and on past Telfs to Imst.

How we choose between them

By the road, not by the map. The Fernpass is shorter, but it is a pass: snow counts for more on it than on a motorway, and it is also the road where lorries and holiday traffic back up. If anything argues against it on the morning, we go round by Kufstein instead — longer on the map, more reliable on the clock. That decision is the reason it is worth booking with someone who drives both roads all year.

The shared finish: Imst, Landeck, the Stanzertal

From Imst onwards it is one road. The A12 runs to Landeck, where the drive leaves the Inn valley and follows the S16 up the Stanzertal, past Flirsch, Schnann and Pettneu. A few kilometres later it ends in the middle of St. Anton — short of the tunnel mouth and short of the pass road. That last half hour is the only mountain section the two roads have in common.

Neither the Arlberg tunnel nor the Arlberg pass

This is the most distinctive thing about the route, and it surprises most people: the Munich transfer does not need the Arlberg tunnel — on either road. St. Anton sits on the Tyrolean side of the Arlberg, and coming from the east you arrive before it. The transfer from Friedrichshafen goes through the tunnel because it comes from the other side. The Arlberg pass road is not needed either: it climbs west out of the village, which is past your destination.

Winter conditions on this road

Conditions change along the way rather than all at once: Munich can be dry while the Stanzertal is already under snow. Over 230 kilometres you drive through several kinds of weather, and the part that counts comes at the end. It is why every one of our vehicles is four-wheel drive and carries chains all season.

The two routes from Munich Airport to St. Anton am ArlbergTwo roads run from Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg. The western one takes the A95 to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, crosses into Austria at Ehrwald and climbs the Fernpass at 1,216 metres to Nassereith — shorter, but a real pass road. The eastern one takes the A8 to Rosenheim, crosses at Kufstein and follows the A12 up the Inn valley through Wörgl to Innsbruck, where Innsbruck Airport sits directly on the route — longer, but motorway almost the whole way. The two meet again at Imst. From there a single road runs through Landeck onto the S16 and up the Stanzertal past Flirsch, Schnann and Pettneu to St. Anton am Arlberg at 1,304 metres. St. Anton is reached from the Tyrolean side, before the Arlberg tunnel, so neither route needs the Arlberg tunnel or the Arlberg pass.Munich Airport (MUC)— in Bavaria, north-east of the cityOver the Fernpass — shorterVia Kufstein — motorwayGarmisch-Partenkirchen— the A95 southEhrwald— Germany into AustriaFernpass— 1,216 m, a real pass roadNassereith— down into the GurgltalRosenheim— the A8, then the A93Kufstein— Germany into AustriaWörgl— the A12 up the Inn valleyInnsbruck— Innsbruck Airport is right hereImst— where the two roads meet againLandeck— off the A12, onto the S16the Stanzertal— Flirsch, Schnann, PettneuSt. Anton am Arlberg— 1,304 m, before the tunnel
Two roads, one destination: the Fernpass is the shorter way but it is a real pass road — and when the weather, the lorries or the holiday traffic over it say otherwise, we go round by Kufstein and the Inn valley, motorway almost the whole way. The two meet again at Imst. The driver decides on the morning, not the table — and the price does not change either way.
The three roads from Munich Airport to the ArlbergA schematic with Munich Airport at the top right and the Arlberg at the bottom left. Three roads connect them. The western one arcs over the top through Memmingen and Lindau to Lake Constance, crosses the border at Hörbranz and comes in through Bregenz and Bludenz; it is the only one that never enters Tyrol. The middle one takes the A95 to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, crosses the border at Ehrwald and climbs the Fernpass before running on through Imst; it is the shortest in kilometres. The eastern one drops south-east through Rosenheim to Kufstein, crosses the border there, and runs back west up the Inn valley past Innsbruck; it is the longest. We drive whichever is quickest on the morning.Munich AirportArlbergMemmingenLindauHörbranzBludenzGarmisch-P.EhrwaldFernpassRosenheimKufsteinInnsbruckthe one we usually takedepending on the dayborder

The driver decides on the morning, from the weather and the road — and it makes no difference to the fixed price to St. Anton am Arlberg. An agent cannot make that call: he is not the one driving.

Route map from Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg by way of Rosenheim, Kufstein, the Inn valley and Innsbruck
The eastern road from Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg: past Rosenheim, across the border at Kufstein, up the Inn valley past Innsbruck and through Landeck into the Stanzertal. Google puts that at 298 km. It is the longer of the two — over the Fernpass it is about 230 km, and that is the road we normally drive.

Germany into Austria: what the border means for your transfer

The border is crossed about a third of the way into the drive — at Ehrwald or at Kufstein, depending on which road we take. That sets this route apart from our others: on the Friedrichshafen transfer the border comes twenty minutes from the destination, while here the whole Austrian half of the journey still lies ahead. Germany and Austria are both in the Schengen area, so there is normally no check there — carry the identity document you flew with in case of a temporary one.

Everything else is our problem: the Austrian motorway vignette is inside the fixed price, on both roads. No Arlberg tunnel toll arises at all, because the drive reaches St. Anton from the east and does not use the tunnel.

In practice the border is a road sign and nothing more. You stay seated, the vehicle keeps going, and nobody stops at a toll booth with a wallet out. The luggage is not moved once between the terminal and your accommodation — anyone covering the same ground by rail changes vehicle several times in those hours.

Your Driver, from the Munich Terminal to the Door in St. Anton

Your driver waits in the public arrivals area for your flight, holding a sign with your name. Munich splits arrivals between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, and they are far enough apart that guessing is not an option. You will not have to guess: your flight number tells us which one you come out of, and your driver messages you the terminal and the exit as soon as he is there.

How long it takes you to get out depends on where you have flown in from. An arrival from inside the Schengen area is usually a walk to the baggage hall and out. An arrival from outside it adds passport control. Either way your driver is waiting rather than circling — the drive starts when you are ready, not when a timetable says so.

The same driver takes you the whole way, all three hours of it. He loads the cases and the ski bags himself and is still with you when you arrive in St. Anton — no handover halfway, no second vehicle. We track your flight from the moment it departs: if it lands late the pickup moves with it, at no extra charge.

Arriving with equipment

With skis, boot bags and cases, the door is the whole difference. Everything is loaded once in Munich and unloaded once outside your accommodation — nothing is moved in between, not onto a platform and not into a second vehicle. At the end of a long travel day, that is the part you notice.

That is the whole service, and it is more convenient than it sounds: one vehicle, one driver, one time — from the Munich terminal to your door. In St. Anton every address is reachable: the hotels around the Galzigbahn, the apartments in Nasserein, the houses up in St. Jakob or out in Moos. We live here — transfers are available all year, on any day and at any hour, including the hours when no train and no bus is running.

Why Choose Taxi Anton for Munich to St. Anton Transfers

Most companies selling this route sit neither in Munich nor on the Arlberg — they pass the job on. We drive every transfer ourselves, in our own vehicles and with our own drivers. Over 230 kilometres and three hours that is not a detail: you are in the same vehicle with the same driver for the whole afternoon.

And the part that counts in winter is home. The last half hour — Landeck, the Stanzertal, Flirsch, Schnann, Pettneu, St. Anton — is road our drivers cover every day all winter. The same drivers run the transfers from Innsbruck, Zurich and Friedrichshafen.

And the arrangement is flexible where it counts: the pickup time follows your landing, a stop on the way is possible, and the driver picks whichever of the two roads is the right one that morning. What we deliver is a smooth, well-managed journey — the vehicle, the pickup and the destination all settled before you land.

What you are buying is a reliable arrival: experienced drivers, a comfortable, winter-equipped vehicle that takes eight people and their equipment, a fixed price settled in advance, and a drive that runs door to door. The same cars work as a local taxi and a train station taxi while you are here, and every route we run is on the transfers from the Arlberg page.

The longest airport run we drive, and the one where the vehicle earns its keep: three and a half hours and 298 kilometres, two countries, and a group that has just come off a flight. What decides the car here is not the mountain — that is only the last half hour — but the fact that everybody and everything has to travel together, comfortably, for an entire afternoon.

Both vehicles: 4x4, winter tyres from November to April, snow chains on board.

Both vehicles are four-wheel drive on winter tyres, with chains on board through the season, and skis travel outside on the rear rack. Up to eight passengers with cases, at one price for the vehicle.

Getting from Munich Airport to St. Anton: Transfer, Train, Bus or Rental Car?

There are four realistic options, and on this route the choice is wider than on most of the roads we drive.

St. Anton am Arlberg has a railway station of its own, on the main line through the Arlberg — and we say so openly even though it is the competition's argument. For Lech or Zürs it is not true; here it is. There is no direct train from Munich Airport, though: it means connections, and the luggage comes with you through every one of them.

Travelling by bus involves the most changes of the four. A rental car earns its keep if you plan to drive during the stay; if the car would sit outside the hotel all week, a private transfer saves you three hours of winter driving across a border after a flight, and the return of the car on the morning you fly home. And in St. Anton the lifts start in the village, so a car is of use for only a few minutes a day.

Count the minutes as well as the euros. On a transfer the minutes between landing and setting off are none, because the driver is already waiting. By train or bus they are the minutes lost at every change with the luggage in your hands, and the minutes spent at the airport waiting for the first connection that works. For groups that arithmetic decides it well before the fare does.

The four options, side by side

Of the four, the private transfer is the only one with no change of vehicle: one car, one price, your door. Travelling alone with light luggage on a good connection, the train is cost-effective. For a family or a ski group the arithmetic turns over: four people with skis pay one fare between them, while every other option charges each of them separately and asks them to move the equipment themselves at every change.

St. Anton am Arlberg from Munich, Innsbruck, Zurich & Friedrichshafen

St. Anton is reached from six airports, and we drive from all of them. Munich is the furthest and at the same time the most international — which is why the question is never "which one is closest" but "which one does the flight I need actually go to".

Compare the two together: what is flying, when it lands, and the total travel time. A convenient flight into Munich plus a three-hour drive beats an awkward connection into Innsbruck — and the other way round just as often. Transfers from Munich also run to Lech, Zürs, St. Christoph and Stuben.

Return Transfer: St. Anton am Arlberg to Munich Airport

A St. Anton to Munich Airport transfer runs exactly as the way in does, in reverse: from the door of your accommodation to the terminal, at the same fixed price per vehicle. Ask for the St. Anton–Munich leg with the same request and both journeys come back in one quote.

For a flight from Munich we leave St. Anton six hours before departure. That is the longest lead time of any airport we drive to, and it covers the 230 kilometres, the border and the time a large international airport needs, together. Tell us your flight number and we will give you the pickup time.

For comparison: for Innsbruck we leave three hours before, for Friedrichshafen four and for Zurich five. The times differ because the drives differ — and because a large airport asks for more margin than a single hall does. The returns to the other airports: St. Anton am Arlberg to Innsbruck Airport, St. Anton am Arlberg to Friedrichshafen Airport and St. Anton am Arlberg to Zurich Airport.

The way back has the same two options as the way in: down the Stanzertal to Landeck and on to Imst, and from there either over the Fernpass or down the Inn valley and across at Kufstein. Which one it is we decide on the morning, from the state of the road. It costs the same as the way in: from €640 per vehicle, tolls and ski equipment included. We collect you from your accommodation at any hour, including before daylight.

The whole return leg — pickup time, road, border and terminal — is set out on the St. Anton am Arlberg to Munich Airport page.

Munich Airport to St. Anton am Arlberg — Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a Munich Airport transfer to St. Anton am Arlberg?

A private Munich–St. Anton transfer costs from €640 per vehicle, one way. The price is fixed when you book and covers every toll, skis and snowboards, child seats and the drive to the door of your accommodation.

Is the €640 price per person or per vehicle?

The Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer is priced per vehicle, not per person: €640 is the price of the car and not of a seat in it, and it does not change between two passengers and eight. On a journey this long that is the whole difference against a shared shuttle, where every passenger pays separately and the vehicle still stops for other people.

How far is St. Anton am Arlberg from Munich Airport?

St. Anton am Arlberg is about 230 kilometres from Munich Airport over the Fernpass, which is the road we normally take, or about 298 by way of Kufstein and the Inn valley — longer, but motorway almost the whole way. They meet again at Imst, and from there both finish through Landeck and up the S16 into the Stanzertal.

How long does the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer take?

The Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer takes around 3 hours. It is the longest of the six airport transfers we drive to St. Anton, and most of it is fast road — the shared mountain part is the last half hour, from Landeck up the Stanzertal.

Does the transfer cross a border?

Yes, the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer crosses the German–Austrian border — at Ehrwald or at Kufstein, depending on which of the two roads we take. Munich Airport is in Bavaria, in Germany, and St. Anton am Arlberg is in Tyrol, in Austria. Either way the crossing comes about a third of the way into the drive rather than near the end. Both countries are in the Schengen area, so there is normally no routine check, but carry the identity document you flew with in case of a temporary one.

Do we travel through Switzerland?

No, you do not travel through Switzerland: both roads from Munich Airport to St. Anton go straight from Germany into Austria and stay there. No Swiss vignette and no second border.

Which road do you take from Munich Airport to St. Anton?

From Munich Airport to St. Anton we take one of two roads, and we drive both. The western one goes over the Fernpass — through Garmisch-Partenkirchen, across the border at Ehrwald and over the pass at 1,216 metres. The eastern one, about sixty-eight kilometres longer, goes via Kufstein and the Inn valley through Innsbruck. They separate just after the airport and meet again at Imst, and from there it is the same road to St. Anton.

What decides which of the two routes you use?

Which of the two routes we use depends on the state of the road on the morning you arrive, and the driver makes that call rather than a timetable. The Fernpass is shorter, but it is a pass road, and snow counts for more on it. When that argues against it we go round by Kufstein instead — longer on the map, more reliable on the clock. The price is the same either way.

Does the route use the Arlberg road tunnel?

No, the route from Munich Airport to St. Anton does not use the Arlberg road tunnel, on either road. St. Anton sits on the Tyrolean side of the Arlberg, and coming from Munich you reach it from the east — before the tunnel. The Friedrichshafen transfer goes through the tunnel because it comes from the other side; this one has no reason to.

Does the route go over the Arlbergpass?

No, the route from Munich to St. Anton does not go over the Arlbergpass. The pass road climbs west out of St. Anton towards St. Christoph and Vorarlberg, which is past your destination. The Munich drive finishes at Landeck and comes up the S16 into the village, so the pass is behind you and not in front.

Are tolls included?

Yes, all tolls are included on the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer, on either road. The Austrian motorway vignette is inside the fixed price, and no Arlberg tunnel toll arises at all because neither route uses the tunnel.

Is Munich the closest airport to St. Anton?

No, Munich is not the closest airport to St. Anton — Innsbruck is, at about 100 kilometres against 230 from Munich. On the Kufstein road the Munich drive actually passes Innsbruck Airport on the way. People fly into Munich for the flight rather than for the drive: it is the international airport of the six, with the widest choice of long-haul connections.

So why choose Munich Airport for St. Anton?

Munich Airport is worth choosing for St. Anton because of what is available to fly into it. If Munich is where your flight lands at a sensible hour, a direct transfer of around three hours afterwards is usually simpler than routing yourself through a smaller airport on an awkward connection. Compare the flight first and the road second.

Where will our driver meet us at Munich Airport?

Your driver meets you at Munich Airport in the public arrivals area for your flight, holding a sign with your name. Munich splits arrivals between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, and they are far enough apart that guessing is not an option — which is why we use your flight number to work out which one you will come out of, and your driver messages you the terminal and the exit when he is there.

What happens if our flight is delayed?

If your flight to Munich is delayed, nothing changes for you. We track the flight number you give us from the moment it departs, and the pickup moves with the actual landing time, at no extra charge. On long-haul arrivals that is the normal case rather than the exception.

How long does it take to get out of Munich Airport?

How long it takes to get out of Munich Airport depends on where you have flown in from, and that is why the flight number matters. An arrival from inside the Schengen area is usually a walk to the baggage hall and out; an arrival from outside it adds passport control. Either way your driver is waiting rather than circling, so the drive starts when you are ready.

Where exactly do you drop us off in St. Anton?

We drop you off at the door of your accommodation in St. Anton, wherever it is in the village — the hotels around the Galzigbahn, the apartments in Nasserein, the houses located up in St. Jakob or out in Moos. Every one of them has road access all winter, and we are based in St. Anton, so there is nothing to explain about finding an address here.

Is the transfer private?

Yes, the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer is private: the vehicle runs for your group alone. Nobody else is collected on the way, there is no meeting point to find, and there is no stop between the terminal and your accommodation unless you ask for one.

Can we stop on the way?

Yes, you can stop on the way from Munich Airport to St. Anton. On a drive of around three hours that is a fair thing to want, and a stop you ask for is charged by the time it takes and quoted before we make it. A shared shuttle stops where its list says; a private transfer stops where you say.

How many passengers can travel?

Up to eight passengers can travel in one vehicle, with their luggage. Our fleet is Mercedes 4x4 minibuses and VW Caravelle 4x4 minibuses; for a larger group we send two vehicles to the same door at the same time, at the same price per vehicle.

Can we bring skis and snowboards?

Yes, skis and snowboards travel free of charge on the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer. They go on the external rear rack and the rest of the luggage travels inside with you — which on a long drive is the point, because eight people and eight ski bags fit in one vehicle instead of two. Tell us with the request how many ski bags and boot bags are coming.

Are child seats available?

Yes, child seats are available free of charge on the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer. Tell us the ages of the children when you book and the seats and boosters are fitted before the vehicle leaves for the airport.

What happens in heavy snow?

In heavy snow the Munich to St. Anton drive takes longer, and the price does not change. Every vehicle we run is four-wheel drive, on winter tyres from November to April and carrying chains all season. On this route the conditions change along the way rather than all at once: Munich can be clear while the Stanzertal is under snow.

Can we take the train from Munich Airport to St. Anton?

There is no direct train from Munich Airport to St. Anton, so it means connections — but St. Anton am Arlberg has a station of its own on the main line through the Arlberg, which makes rail a real option here in a way it is not for Lech or Zürs. We say so openly. With light luggage it can be cost-effective; with a ski bag each, it is the changes that decide it.

Is a rental car a good option?

Whether a rental car is a good option for St. Anton depends on what you do after you arrive. A rental car earns its keep if you plan to drive during the stay; if it would sit outside the hotel all week, a private transfer saves you three hours of winter driving across a border after a flight, and the return of the car on the morning you fly home.

Which other Arlberg resorts do you drive to from Munich?

From Munich we drive to all five Arlberg resorts. Over the Fernpass, St. Anton is 230 km and St. Christoph 237; Stuben, Zürs and Lech are reached the other way, round the north of the Arlberg by way of Lindau, at 291, 296 and 304 — every one of them reached on the same roads as far as Landeck, then a few more kilometres over the Arlberg. The five resorts share one lift pass and around 300 kilometres of piste, so the resort you sleep in and the slopes you ski do not have to be the same place.

How close are the lifts to where you drop us off?

The lifts in St. Anton are close enough to walk to from where we drop you off. St. Anton is one of the few resorts of its size where the lifts start in the village: the Galzigbahn and the Nassereinbahn rise straight out of it, and the Rendl is across the valley. On your first morning you need no car and no bus to reach the slopes — which is part of why a door to door transfer is worth it here.

Do you drive Munich–St. Anton in summer as well?

Yes, we drive Munich–St. Anton all year, summer included. Out of the ski season the mountain is quieter and the same roads carry walkers and cyclists instead of skiers, but the Munich to St. Anton transfer is the same drive at the same fixed price. The Fernpass is also at its best in summer, when it is simply the finer of the two roads rather than the one the weather can argue about.

How do we pay?

You pay the driver for the Munich Airport to St. Anton transfer, by card or in cash. The price is fixed per vehicle and confirmed when you book, so you know the full amount before the journey starts.

Can we book the return to Munich as well?

Yes, you can book the return to Munich Airport as well, and it costs the same in that direction. For a flight out of Munich we leave St. Anton six hours before departure — the longest lead time of any airport we drive to — and we ring you the evening before to set the exact time. Say so with the request and both journeys come back in one quote.
