Brussels is served primarily by Brussels Airport (BRU) in Zaventem and the smaller Brussels South Charleroi (CRL). Brussels Airport acts as the main international hub, handling full-service carriers and many long-haul and European connections; fares can be mid-to-high compared with secondary airports. It sits about 12 km northeast of the city centre — train links take roughly 20–25 minutes to Brussels Midi/Noord/Bruxelles-Central, with single fares typically in the mid-range for European rail. Taxis and coach services are also available, with transfer times depending on traffic. Charleroi is a budget-oriented option around 60 km south, popular with low-cost airlines; coaches to the centre take about 60–90 minutes and can be cheaper but less convenient. Pros: BRU is fast and well-connected; CRL can be cheaper but adds travel time and variability.
Zurich Airport (ZRH) is Switzerland’s main international gateway and typically serves as a premium hub for Swiss and many full-service carriers, with a growing selection of low-cost services on select routes. It sits about 10–13 km north of Zurich city centre, making transfers relatively quick: the frequent S-Bahn trains reach Zurich HB in roughly 10–15 minutes (tickets usually cost in the low single-digit CHF range), while regional buses, trams and taxis take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and can be pricier. Pros include efficient connections, strong facilities and easy onward rail links; downsides can be higher retail and transfer costs compared with smaller regional airports.
