Flying from London Heathrow
Heathrow is the UK's main long-haul hub and the airport where full-service carriers concentrate their schedule rather than chase price. Expect five terminals, fast Tube and Elizabeth Line links into central London, and a route map that skews toward business-traveller frequency: more daily slots, fewer fare wars. Short-haul fares from Heathrow tend to run a little higher than Gatwick or Stansted on the same corridor — the trade-off is a wider choice of airline and a more reliable timetable.
Arriving in Zurich
Zurich Airport is 10 km north of the city, with frequent S-Bahn trains reaching Hauptbahnhof in 10 minutes for CHF 7. Swiss International, BA and easyJet share the route. Zurich fares peak around the World Economic Forum (mid-January) and ski season; July and September are typically the cheapest months for non-business UK travellers.
