Zürich Flights

Gain firsthand insights into Europe’s extensive history and culture when you take advantage of deals on tickets to Zurich. Situated in the central region of northern Switzerland, Zurich is not only the country’s capital, but also an outstanding city in which to immerse yourself. The fertile countryside serves as the perfect backdrop for an epic holiday in this city, which was settled more than 2,000 years ago. So whether you want to experience the awesome architecture of the churches and cultural centres, or prefer to enjoy the many aquatic activities offered by the city’s eponymous lake, there’s never been a better time to find cheap flights to Zurich.

Best Time to Travel to Zurich

Peak Season:

The peak season in Zurich comprises June, July, and August, as this is when the temperature tends to be the most agreeable, and when outdoor activities are the most accessible. This is also when many of the city's signature events take place, including the Zurich Street Parade, Zurich Triathlon, and Niederdorf Old Town Festival.

Shoulder Season:

As far as tourism is concerned, both spring and autumn are considered shoulder seasons in Zurich. The temperatures in the springtime, though not nearly as warm as the summers, can still be quite comfortable, and rates on rooms can be more reasonable as well. The fall months are considerably colder, but not an altogether bad time to visit Zurich, especially if you'd like to check out the action on the nearby slopes.

Off Season:

Perhaps not surprisingly, winter is the slowest time for tourism in Zurich due to the frostiness that accompanies this season. Temperatures during the months of December, January, and February rarely rise above 5 degrees Celsius, and can dip as low as -2 degrees. And although rates on hotels and flights might be expected to lower, the snow-centric activities offered on the nearby Swiss Alps ensure that the rates remain relatively the same. In fact, it's not entirely unheard of for hotel rates to actually rise around Christmastime, as this is when holiday festivals and markets entice many seasonal travellers.

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.
