5/ 5

Swiss precision from gate to train

Elena V.Business
Pros

Impeccably clean and punctual, with a rail station beneath that connects seamlessly to the city.

Cons

Prices for food and drink are steep, as you'd expect anywhere in Switzerland.

Zurich runs with exactly the precision you'd hope for, from tidy halls to trains that leave right on schedule. The station under the terminal made getting into the city effortless after I landed. The only thing that stung was the cost of a quick coffee and sandwich, which was distinctly Swiss.
