Zurich Airport in a nutshell

Airport ZRH

Switzerland's largest airport is home to Swiss Airlines, one of the most important airlines in Europe.

With an extensive network of routes across Europe, to North and South America, Asia and Africa, Zurich Airport is a major European connecting point. The airport buildings are not as large as those at Frankfurt or Paris CDG, which is why Zurich Airport is so popular with travellers.

The terminals are located in the village of Kloten about 11 km north of Zurich city centre.

There are relatively few low-cost carriers flying to Zurich, so you'll usually find cheaper tickets for travel to the northern part of Switzerland at Basel BSL Airport, 95km away.
