Innsbruck flight FAQs

A flight from London Heathrow to Innsbruck Airport takes just under two hours.

The most popular time to visit the city is during the winter and summer months so to save, book your flights for spring or autumn. You’ll still enjoy pleasant weather and outdoor activities like hiking, mountain biking and exploring the scenic landscapes.

You can make a trip to Innsbruck fit any budget. The Alps, which surround the city, offer plenty of free hiking trails. The Old Town, with its charming streets and historical landmarks, is perfect for slow strolls. At mealtimes, visit local markets for affordable yet delicious Austrian cuisine, or enjoy picnics in the city’s parks in the summer. You can also take advantage of Innsbruck’s well-connected public transport system to explore the surrounding nature. 

Once you touch down at Innsbruck Airport, you’re only a 20-minute drive from the city centre. The cheapest way to travel is by using the airport bus, which will take you to the town’s main station. Taxis can easily be found outside the airport terminal too.

You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to see more of what Austria has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.

Innsbruck is so much more than just a destination for skiing. In the winter, the city becomes both a hub for winter sport enthusiasts and festive adventures, with charming Christmas markets and seasonal events on offer. You can visit the Bergisel Ski Jump, an iconic ski jump designed by architect Zaha Hadid, for panoramic views of the city and the surrounding Alps. Explore the Wilten Basilica for exquisite Rococo architecture and a tranquil atmosphere. Then there’s Ambras Castle, a Renaissance building that features art collections, historical exhibits and a beautiful outdoor space. You can wander through the lush gardens at the Botanical Garden of the University of Innsbruck too, where a diverse collection of plants from alpine regions around the world awaits.

Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit Austria. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of these areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel.
