Zurich Airport (ZRH) is Switzerland’s primary international gateway and a key European hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers, European network airlines and some low-cost operators. It’s located about 10 km north of the city centre, with fast rail links taking roughly 10–15 minutes to Zurich Hauptbahnhof and regional trains or trams to surrounding areas; expect fares typically in the mid-range for Swiss public transport. Road transfer by taxi or ride-share can take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and is usually more expensive. The airport is well-equipped with lounges, shopping and business services, making it convenient for connections, though it can be busier and pricier than smaller regional fields. For budget travellers, nearby train stations and occasional low-cost flights can offer savings but may involve longer transfer times or less frequent schedules.
Nice Côte d’Azur Airport serves as the main international gateway to the French Riviera, acting more like a regional hub for full-service carriers and summer charter operators while also hosting low-cost airlines. It sits about 7 km southwest of Nice city center, with tram and bus links typically taking 20–30 minutes; expect tram fares to be modest and buses slightly cheaper, with taxis or ride-shares taking 15–25 minutes depending on traffic and costing noticeably more. Pros: convenient proximity to downtown and frequent connections across Europe. Cons: can be busy in high season and some budget carriers use remote stands that add walking or shuttle time.
