The shortest ski resort transfer in the world |

Méribel and Courchevel may have their own airstrips but when it comes to parking an Airbus, there aren't any destinations in the world with the city and ski lifts so close to Innsbruck airport arrivals lounge.

You can be sat on a chair lift or downtown terrace and watch the arrivals buzz overhead - Innsbruck airport is just located on the western flank of the city.
