Local notes

Handover at Samedan

Engadin Airport (SMV) serves St. Moritz and the surrounding valley, and it is a practical point for collecting or returning a car without routing through the town centre. Because the airport has no fixed rental desk, meeting arrangements are set individually for each booking once your flight details are known, rather than assumed in advance.

Documents and Flight Timing

Bring a valid driving licence and identification to the handover. Share your flight number and expected landing time as early as possible so the handover can be aligned with your actual arrival rather than a general estimate. The same applies on departure: confirm your outbound flight time so the return can be planned around it.

Returning the Car

Returns at Engadin Airport follow the same principle as pickup: the meeting point and timing are agreed per booking, based on your flight schedule. Fuel and condition terms are set out at the time of reservation and confirmed again at handover.

Choosing the Right Car

A fly-in stay in the Engadin often means driving mountain roads shortly after landing, so the right car depends on the trip. A Ferrari 296 GTB or Porsche suits a short, direct route into town; an SUV such as the BMW X7 40d M carries luggage and passengers comfortably on longer touring days; a convertible is a seasonal choice better suited to warmer months. Tell us your route and season when booking and we will help match the car to the drive.

Q & A

Airport Rental Questions

A quick read of what most rental clients ask before booking.

  • Can I have a car ready when I land at Engadin Airport?

    Yes. Share your flight number and arrival time when booking so the handover can be arranged around your landing rather than a fixed schedule.

  • Is a convertible practical if I'm flying in during winter?

    Convertibles are better suited to warmer months. For winter arrivals into the Engadin, an SUV or all-wheel drive model is a more practical choice, and we can suggest alternatives from the fleet based on the season.

  • Can I arrange a car through the airport for a wedding or event?

    Yes. For weddings and events we plan the handover location and timing around your schedule; let us know the dates and any specific vehicle requests when you enquire.

  • What are the insurance, mileage and cross-border terms for a car collected at Engadin Airport?

    Insurance terms, mileage conditions and any cross-border allowances are set out in your rental agreement at the time of booking and confirmed again at handover.

  • Do I need to return the car to the airport, or can it be dropped elsewhere?

    Return location is agreed as part of your booking. If you need to return the car somewhere other than Engadin Airport, raise this when reserving so it can be arranged in advance.
