Zürich Airport (ZRH)

Zürich Airport (ZRH)

Zürich Airport is voted to be one of the best in the world. It consists of two terminals and they both have a Tourist Information Centre based in the arrivals hall. The airport is situated 11 kilometres outside Zürich and there are several ways of getting into the town centre. The subterranean train station is directly beneath Terminal B. Trains depart roughly every 10 minutes for the city’s main station. You can buy tickets directly from the vending machines that can be found next to the SBB travel centre. The Glatttalbahn, tram number 10, connects the airport and the main railway station. The tram runs every 7 or 15 minutes. Tram number 12 connects the airport and the hub of Stettbach and runs every 15 minutes. There is a frequent bus service running from the airport. Zürcher Verkehrsverbund (ZVV) has a trip planner on their website. The taxi rank is located just outside the arrivals terminal 1 and 2. Taxis may be reserved in advance.
