    Hi
    I have large denominations in my Swiss money. Will there be a place at the Zurich airport, a bank I guess, who would change, for example, a 100 franc for five 20’s. I would not expect a charge for this.
    Thanks,
    Peggy

    Hi Peggy,

    I don’t know whether banks will do this at no charge. What I would do: ask for change in CHF 20 notes when buying some cheap item in a supermarket, rail station or post office. There are shops at the airport and even more at the Zurich main rail station.
