Not your flight? Plan your own Innsbruck arrival.
Plan your own →Mayrhofen is about an hour from Innsbruck by car. By public transport you take bus F to Innsbruck station, a train to Jenbach and the Zillertal railway up the valley, but those connections thin out in the evening.
If your flight departed from the UK or the EU and you arrive 3 or more hours late, you may also be entitled to compensation, unless bad weather caused the delay.

Why this is best
- A driver meets you at arrivals. From about €229 for your group, fixed price.
- Someone else drives the mountain roads at night.
Why not “Sleep near the airport, take the bus tomorrow”? You'd get there 12h 32m later (11:00), it costs roughly €244 more and the risk is some instead of low. Our pick balances cost, time and risk.
