The airport briefing states that no runway or approach lighting is available. It also explains that instrument flight rules (IFR) procedures depend on military airspace activity. During very high traffic and good weather, IFR procedures may be suspended for operational reasons by a notice to air missions (NOTAM). Official airport briefing.
For your booking, this means that an IFR-capable aircraft alone does not establish whether the requested flight can proceed. Ask the operating carrier to confirm the feasibility of your requested arrival and departure window, taking account of available procedures, weather requirements and published hours. Avoid committing to a late arrival before that assessment. www.engadin-airport.ch
Physical runway dimensions also do not establish aircraft suitability. Ask the carrier to assess the applicable declared distances, aircraft performance, payload and runway conditions for your flight.
Pilots must complete the airport’s familiarisation briefing and test before departing for Samedan and carry proof of completion. Official pilot requirements.
Before accepting the offer, agree how a delay, diversion or change of departure airport will be handled.
