 Poster: A snowHead
|
I am, all going well, off to Mayrhofen next weekend, coming back good friday. My return flight is 17:30 from Munich. The transfer company has (Alps 2 Alps) has set 13:00 as pickup time. That sounds a bit tight to me? Normally there pickups give loads of time often dropping at airport before we can drop the bags...
We haven't done this route before, am I worrying about nothing?

Mayhorfen is 2-2.5hr to Munich Airport. you can assume 3hrs and work backwards.
I suspect you will have at least 1.5hr at the airport, maybe 2 is the bus does not make many stops on the way or if traffic is not too bad.

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I think that's a bit tight but perfectly achievable assuming no delays en route to, or at, the airport. Terminal one tends to have much slower queues than terminal two in my experience ie better to fly Lufthansa than BA (for many other reasons too!).

This is what worries me.... I don't like relying on No Delays especially on an afternoon. One thunk at 3am when most sane people are in bed

I suspect that he knows the way, and if the traffic is heavy he`ll come off at Rosenheim, and take the back road directly to the airport.

Traffic should be very light on Good Friday.

I'm leaving tomorrow on the same route, returning Friday 8th, but with a hire car. I'm expecting Friday to be busy as people travel for the long weekend, and because I'm on the last flight out to LHR so many of the business travellers probably use that flight as well. Departure is more of a concern for me - Heathrow has always been a shambles in my experience, so I don't have high hopes. By contrast, several trips through Munich have been almost pleasant, including several where the luggage arrived on the carousel before the passengers got there despite there being no queues at all at passport control.

@ousekjarr, I am not expecting any issues as I am flying out Sunday morning on 7:25 flight.
Yet I will be allowing more or similar tolerance on time than transfer company is on return
