Zürich Airport (ZRH) by Train - Getting there by Public Transit
Вставка

- A tram and/or train is a great way to get to the Zürich Airport (ZRH). Almost certainly the least expensive way to travel, and you won't be late. Switzerland's trains run well, I didn't experience any delays.

I think you might have actually bought a ticket at the initial tram stop that would have been good all the way to the airport and that should have turned out slightly cheaper than buying a separate tram ticket. All of the transport in the Zurich metro area is ticketed by the ZVV under a zone system and this tickets include transfers where needed.
🚅 don't you all enjoy railroad
🚈 trams, trains etc are just so cool
🚞 take a ride in my ''transportation'' folder, (folder 4) :)
Excellent document, thanks!
Thanks for watching! Hoping you had (or will have) a great time in Switzerland. I wouldn't mind getting back there again soon.
Hi Scott, Like your videos. The raptor was a Red Kite. It's the forked tail that gives it away. You will see them flying around farm fields all over Switzerland.
Hi, Mike. I was hoping someone would confirm what bird this was. I sure was off with my golden eagle guess. Thanks for watching my videos, especially all the way to the end on this one so you could comment on the raptor.
The great thing about Swiss public transport
is it is a largely unified system
so the buses, trams and trains
all interact wonderfully
and the timetable at least when
we purchased the last paper copy
was a country wide timetable of buses, trams and trains
in four fat volumes.
You made here a little mistake.
The short distance ticket to the train station was not necessary.
You could by the ticket to the airport already at "Hottingerplatz"
I would cost 6.80 CHF. I would be valid for all puplic transportation in
zone 110 (Zürich City) and zone 121 (Airport and the wider surroundings)
Not a small mistake, a big mistake. If you want to explain something to others, you should inform yourself first. In my experience, the easiest way is always to use the public transport app for the city you are visiting, then you have the right connection and the right ticket in your pocket.
Great contribution. Valuable information is packed interestingly and entertainingly in a video of high-quality content and videographic quality. Thank you!
Thanks! It was so easy to get around Zürich by public transit, and to use it to get to the airport, that I figured I'd better share with everyone. I appreciate your comments!
Do hotels in Zurich give out free public transportation passes for 3-4 days stay in Zurich.
I'm not aware of a free public transit card in Zurich through hotels. I did see that hotels in Bern offer something like this though in case you're heading there as well. I stayed at an airbnb in both cities, and when I asked the owner in Bern if a transit card came with the rental, he said it didn't.
How about taking tram no. 10 from down town directly to the Airport? Easier takes a bit more time though.
The tram is an option, but I agree with you; it does take more time. For just a few more Swiss Francs we decided on the train. I'm overly cautious, and wanted to get to the airport as quickly as possible. Thanks for the comment!
Tram nr.10 is sloooow
Do we have to validate the tickets inside of the bus/tram?
No need to validate on the tram. The ticket is time stamped. Just have the ticket available if someone asks to see it.

Thanks for watching my video.
@@scottoftheroad what about the S-Bahn trains, do those not have to be validated either?
Thank you so mush for answering btw :) !!!
@@lauraelenarivera2863 No need to validate on S Bahn either. Just have your ticket ready if asked for it on any train, and make sure the time stamp of when you bought it is current.
@@scottoftheroad thank you !! ⭐️
😂
the thing i do not like about switzerland's public transport is that its so expensive. In athens the fare is only 1,2/0,5 euro (reduced)
swiss citizens earn more than greek ones ;)
Why are you walking over red!?
cause fuck cars lol
