No rail — IVB bus F to Hauptbahnhof is the public backbone (€3.30 Kernzone single in 2026)Category C mountain approaches + single 2,000 m runway: wind and low cloud cancel more than flatland peersWinter Saturday ski banks can push security toward an hour in a two-lane hall

INN · Tyrol’s compact alpine gateway 4 km from Innsbruck: one terminal, Category C mountain approaches, IVB bus F instead of rail, classic 100 ml security, and a single Tyrol Lounge that closes at 19:00 — easy to walk, hard to time on winter Saturdays.
FMM · Bavaria’s busy Allgäu low-cost gateway: tiny single terminal, Ryanair/Wizz banks, classic 100 ml security, no lounge, and a €3.50 City-Shuttle that is already on DB tickets booked to Memmingen Allgäu Airport.

Car hire on terminal campus
Winter ski banks punish the tiny security hall
Compact terminal, brutal winter-Saturday peaks — pad security and do not cut mountain-weather buffer on ski charters.
One hall — landside check-in, upstairs security, gates beyond
One Olympic-era terminal with upstairs security and a small airside hold — easy to learn, easy to congest.
Limited airside cafés — lounge or eat in town
Fine for coffee; Tyrol Lounge or the city beat scrambling the gate cafés on ski-charter peaks.
