The journey between Brussels and Zurich is really easy to make, especially when travelers choose to fly. Flights from Brussels to Zurich leave every day of the year,  with 4 weekend services and 5 options during the week. The flight time is between 1 hour 10 minutes and 1 hour 20 minutes, so getting to Zurich has never been simpler.

How long is the flight from Brussels to Zurich?

Flight times between Brussels and Zurich are extremely short in global terms, and the journey won't feel time-consuming at all. Expect flight times of between 1 hour 10 minutes and 1 hour 20 minutes for all direct flights.

Passengers can expect a selection of 5 direct flights between Monday and Friday, and 4 flights on Saturdays and Sundays. This should include breakfast time departures, services in the afternoon, and late evening flights, and there aren't any seasonal dips to interrupt the schedule.

What are the departure and arrival airports for flights from Brussels to Zurich?

Departure airport: Passengers headed from Brussels to Zurich will depart from Brussels Airport (also known as Zaventem). The airport is very well-connected to downtown Brussels, with direct rail links from Brussels-Central probably offering the fastest and most convenient option. Buses offer a different way to arrive, particularly for those in the European Quarter, who can catch the 820 service.

They run from the airport to Zurich's main station in just 10 minutes, so are ideal for visitors who need the fastest possible transfers.
