Cheap flights to Zurich

The lakeside city of Zurich is its main draw, but the Canton of Zurich has much more to offer than just Switzerland's financial capital. Venture from the old city to explore more of the area, with the Alps looming in the distance and medieval towns and mountaintop castles waiting to be explored.

When to book flights to Zurich

The best time to visit Zurich is in the warmer summer months of July and August. The temperatures average 21˚C and you'll be able to make the most of the long sunny days and refreshingly breezy evenings.

Spring and autumn are also good times to visit. It might be a little cooler but the main attractions are less busy and cheap flights are easier to come by.

The winter months are low season for the city itself, but flight prices are inflated by the number of skiers and snowboarders visiting the surrounding region.

The airport can be accessed via the A51 motorway and there are parking spaces for more than 14,000 cars.

How to get around in Zurich

If you're in the city, then using the tram is the preferred way of getting around for the locals. You can also walk and cycle, as the main central part of the city is fairly easy to navigate.

For travelling further outside the city, then the ZVV, which includes the S-Bahn, covers a lot of ground. And the national SBB trains also connect you to other major destinations in the region.

One of the most convenient ways of exploring the surrounding region is by hire car. With a choice of rental car agencies at the airport and in the city, you can book your vehicle with Expedia so that everything is arranged in advance of your arrival.

What are the must-sees in Zurich?

One of the wealthiest cities on the planet, Zurich has all the modern amenities and facilities you would expect. Visit the choice of excellent museums and restaurants, and then wander the streets of the charming Altstadt, before exploring the booming cultural quarter of Zurich West.

Leaving the city behind, and with the Alps in the distance, tackle the walking and mountain bike trails that traverse the region. Pay a visit to Rapperswil, a medieval town by the lake and visit the photography museum in Winterthur.

How to survive the flight to Zürich?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your holiday in Zürich.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Zürich?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Zürich easy and painless. Below you’ll find some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Sharp items like knives can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
