I emigrated from Switzerland to the USA and live here for almost 20 years now... I was always amazed and visited ZRH so many times in the past and cannot wait until the next time... Amazing what they built, it is worth to take a break of flying and relax and experience ZRH...

Planning my next trip to Switzerland. We just returned from a trip where we arrived and departed from the US via FRA. I did this to avoid three flights and routing through LHR (we fly AA). Never again will I fly through FRA. Too big and disorganized. AA flys from PHL to ZUR and after seeing this video, I am in. I had considered flying in to Geneva and out of Zurich. I will be changing my plans. Thanks for the video.

If you're around the area or maybe just have a lot of time on your hands at the airport, I recommend checking if theyre doing guided airport tours. These start on the spotting terrace and then they take you on a bus and finally they drop you off for like 5-10 minutes in the middle of the takeoff runways. It's a really cool experience. It costs about 25 swiss francs so not that expensive either and it takes about an hour

Informative vid, and the replies are also very helpful. Transiting through there twice next month, will see how it goes. Hope the lines still aren’t as long as that one reply said they were.

Awesome! We are moving from Uzbekistan (with not such a great airport) to the Zurich area this summer. So excited!!

There are three terminals (A, B and E), not two. Terminal E you reach only by underground train.

The Skymetro in the Zurich Airport that sounds like a cow which goes from the speakers.

I am always surprised that hardly any video about Switzerland is warning visitors that on weekends, most of the retail shops including restaurants and gasoline stations ARE CLOSED. When in Zurich - the Main Railway Station Zurich HB - and the Airport are open!

Just returned from Zurich airport. All I remember was long line after long line. After we arrived, we had to walk at least 10 minutes to the custom line. The line was at least 1000 meter long and took almost two hours to get to the officer for three questions and a stamp on my passport. The staffs at this line told us this line is always this long day and night. After the custom, it was another long walk to pick up luggage, long line for security. We learned the lesson. On the way back, we arrived the airport 3.5 hours early. All this time was spent on the lines, airline check in, custom, security. This is a beautiful airport but we did not get a chance to check it out. Wish there was more worker . Love this video and loveSwitzerland .

I have to admit that ZRH Airport is one of Europe's best world class airports out there other than AMS Airport Schiphol, FRA Airport, and IST Airport, just to name a few. ZRH is located in 5 northern suburbs of Zürich which are Winkel, Oberglatt, Kloten, Rümlang, and Opfikon.

I'm there often and I love ZHR ❤!

[musicsavage]

Yea but they can't manage to invest in some AC... Could you imagine if you showed up to any public building America... let alone airport... and it didn't have AC

[fudpukker]

CHF600 for lounge access?? You must be joking...

It's human and people have spoken for natural quality like noise and pollution control.
