Cheap flights from Zurich
Cheap flights from Zurich leave from a single airport, and the routes on offer run from short hops across Europe to longer runs toward the eastern Mediterranean and the Black Sea. Warsaw, Madrid, Barcelona, Budapest and Berlin are among the cities people here fly to most, alongside Chisinau, Krakow, Antalya, Istanbul and Larnaca. EasyJet, Eurowings, Condor, Pegasus, Ajet, Corendon Airlines and Aer Lingus all serve the airport, so the mix of low-cost and charter carriers shapes what you pay.

Airports — Zurich
Zurich departures use Zurich Airport, the city's commercial airport, so there is no second field to weigh up before you book. EasyJet and EasyJet Europe, together with Eurowings, carry a large share of the short European routes, while Condor, Corendon Airlines, Ajet and Pegasus cover charter and leisure flying, and Aer Lingus connects the city with Ireland. Since everything leaves from the same place, compare airlines and departure times rather than airports.
When to go
Demand from Zurich follows the Swiss calendar: the summer school holidays and the winter sports weeks are the busiest stretches, and seats to Antalya, Larnaca and Barcelona get expensive well before those dates. Spring and autumn are calmer, when city breaks to Budapest, Krakow, Berlin or Madrid usually cost less. Christmas, New Year and the February sports break fill up early, so if your trip lands on one of them, book ahead.
