St. Moritz is the world's most glamorous ski resort, and Samedan Airport — Europe's highest commercial airport — puts you on the slopes in style. Charter a private jet for the ultimate Alpine experience.
Samedan Airport (Engadin Airport) is Europe's highest airport at 1,707 metres, located in the spectacular Engadin Valley just minutes from St. Moritz. Landing here is one of private aviation's most dramatic experiences, with mountains rising on all sides.
The airport's altitude and valley location limit it to light and some midsize jets — larger aircraft should use Zurich or Milan with onward transfer. Pilots require special mountain flying certification.
St. Moritz has been the playground of European royalty, global billionaires, and celebrities for over 150 years. The resort offers world-class skiing, the famous Cresta Run, polo on the frozen lake, and some of the finest luxury hotels in the Alps.
