The eyes of the world are turning once again to the Swiss Alps. The World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos-Klosters is scheduled to take place from 19 January 2026 to 23 January 2026. Under the theme “A Spirit of Dialogue,” this year’s summit will bring together over 3,000 global leaders, including heads of state, Fortune 500 CEOs, and pioneering innovators.
In an event where every minute is a currency, how you move is just as important as where you are going. For those seeking seamless, secure, and sophisticated transportation, Swiss Elite Transfers is your trusted partner for the 56th Annual Meeting.
Why Timing and Logistics Matter for Davos 2026
With an estimated 1,000 additional flight movements expected at Zurich Airport (ZRH) during the WEF week, the journey from the tarmac to the “Magic Mountain” requires expert planning. Between heightened security zones, potential alpine snowstorms, and strictly regulated access points, a standard taxi simply won’t suffice.

Secure Your WEF 2026 Transportation Today
Due to the unprecedented demand for luxury transport during the World Economic Forum 2026, vehicle availability in the Graubünden region becomes extremely limited months in advance. We recommend securing your booking as early as possible to ensure your preferred vehicle and schedule.
Travel Tip: With the Swiss Army deploying thousands of troops and strict air-space restrictions in place, road transfers remain the most reliable way to ensure you arrive on time for your speaking engagements and bilateral meetings.
