Davos operations

Private aviation for Davos and WEF 2027.

The WEF Annual Meeting 2027 is scheduled for 18 to 22 January in Davos. Davos has no airport for fixed wing charter aircraft, so a reliable plan combines the right gateway with current aviation procedures and a confirmed transfer to the final address.

Plan a private flight for WEF 2027 in Davos: compare airports, current aviation procedures and the final transfer.

Choose a gateway for the complete journey

Zurich, St. Gallen Altenrhein and Engadin Airport can all form part of a Davos plan. The aircraft, origin, arrival window, weather and final address determine which option works best. Engadin Airport can shorten part of the ground journey for suitable missions. Alpine operating conditions require a detailed review.

Check the rules for the specific year

During the World Economic Forum, temporary restricted airspace and special procedures can apply around Davos. PPR, flight plan requirements, slots, security processes and airport acceptance must be checked against the current AIP supplement, NOTAMs and airport briefing. A procedure from a previous year is not a valid basis for the next event.

Treat the transfer as part of the mission

Road conditions, seasonal access, traffic controls and weather affect the arrival after landing. A helicopter segment requires qualified operator availability, a confirmed landing point, suitable passenger and baggage limits, local permissions and acceptable weather. The road plan remains part of the itinerary when a helicopter is requested.

Prepare a useful request

Provide the preferred arrival time in Davos, an acceptable time window, passenger and baggage details, the final hotel or venue and any onward programme. These details allow the aircraft, airport, handling and transfer to be assessed as one journey.

  • Preferred arrival time at the final address
  • Passenger identity information when required for the operation
  • Baggage volume and special equipment
  • Flexibility for airport or schedule alternatives

Build a confirmed primary plan and fallback

The proposal identifies the selected carrier, aircraft, gateway, transfer and material conditions. It also records the practical alternative for changes in weather, airport capacity or security procedures. Current confirmations define the available plan.
