Zurich Airport (ZRH) is Switzerland’s main international gateway and typically acts as a premium hub for full-service carriers such as SWISS and international partners, alongside some low-cost services. The airport sits about 10–15 km north of Zurich city centre, with frequent train connections taking roughly 10–15 minutes to Hauptbahnhof and tram/bus options that can be 20–30 minutes depending on lines; fares are usually comparable to local public-transport rates. Taxis and ride-shares are available for a faster but costlier 20–30 minute trip. Travelers can expect efficient, well-signposted facilities and good international connections, while prices at on-site shops and parking can be relatively high compared with regional airports.

Munich Airport (MUC) is Bavaria’s international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers—particularly Lufthansa and its Star Alliance partners—so it typically handles most long-haul and many European connections. Fares can be competitive on legacy carriers and sometimes higher on peak routes, while low-cost airlines often use secondary nearby options. The airport sits about 28 km northeast of Munich city centre; the S-Bahn takes roughly 35–45 minutes to central stations with fares generally in the low-to-mid single digits (EUR), while taxis and ride-hailing usually take 30–45 minutes and cost notably more. Pros: efficient terminals, wide route choice and good transfer facilities. Cons: distance from downtown can add time and extra cost compared with smaller, more central fields.
