About this route

Route overview

Basel is a natural continuation from Zurich for pharmaceuticals, art fairs and medical events. A ZRH transfer makes sense when landing in Zurich is easier than EuroAirport, or when the schedule combines meetings in both cities on the same day. Your chauffeur tracks the flight, meets you in arrivals with a name board and drives door to door; the vehicle is assigned as a Mercedes-Benz E-Class, S-Class or V-Class according to passengers and luggage.

Best for

Most common use cases

  • Guests continuing to Basel immediately after landing in Zurich
  • Delegations that need predictable timing and one accountable chauffeur
  • Families or teams travelling with luggage, ski bags or a multi-stop plan
