Kranebitten Airport is located about 5 km from the centre in the Inn Valley.

The single terminal is small and compact and the check-in process takes only a few minutes. Beware, however, during the winter season, when queues can be up to 30 minutes long at security checkpoints and baggage check-in can also take more than 30 minutes.

Traffic in Innsbruck is relatively light with routes to Vienna and Germany predominating, with numerous charter flights from the UK or Scandinavia during the winter season.
