nothing comes even close.

has the Crowne Plaza Zürich for $86 if this fare comes up again. I was in Zürich last weekend and paid just under $100/nt for an Etap, which didn't even supply shampoo. I waited until the last minute to book, and the CP deal was gone by then.

Zürich is definitely expensive. On the other hand, they have free 3-speed bikes to lend out.

I checked DL -- they still have the fare available Sat 26 Sep - Mon 28 Sep. That's only one night in Zürich.

Don't you get 25000 miles just for the New International Routes promo + Delta amex bonus that ends 30 Sep? That comes to 40724 miles counting that promo and the double miles promo, and not counting any elite bonus. $.007/mile.
