    Hi All,

    I will be travelling to Switzerland in May and I will be arriving in Zurich on 4th May and then travelling to Lugano (3) > Lucerne (3) > Wengen (4) > Montreux (3) and then catching a return flight on 17 May.

    Now I have 2 options: On 17th early morning, from Montreux go to Geneva (1 Hour) and catch a 11.30 AM flight from there or

    from Montreux go to Zurich (3 hour) and catch a 11.30 AM flight from there.

    The flight from Zurich is lot cheaper and I checked sbb timetable and I can reach Zurich Airport by 9 AM from Montreux.

    So the Zurich option should be safe enough, right? Can anybody see any problem with this plan?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Voroshin

    Hi Voroshin,

    Funny, I’ve done that myself when there has been a significant price difference… Just make sure that you are also taking the train journey costs too into account as well as ample check-in time just in case. Always better to be at the airport early and relax than to arrive in the nick of time 😉

    Thanks Maria. I will be getting Swiss Travel Pass – 15 days so train travel cost should not matter. And reaching 2 hour before departure should be ok, right?

    Regards,

    As long as a before 06.00 start is OK for you then you can get to Zurich before 09.00

    I know getting up at 5 AM is a drag, 1960man…but the things we have to do to save some money 🙂
