Transit time in ZRH
Hi All-
I'm flying back to Boston from Rome in June and am attempting to do this on miles. One of the options is to fly through Zurich, but there is only 55 minutes between flights. Is this enough time, or should I look for additional flights?
Thanks for the help!

Assuming no delays, this is plenty of time. But even with a 20 min. delay (quite common when flying in Europe), the connection becomes iffy!

USA flights depart from "E" gates, which requires a short train ride (the trains run very frequently). Some arriving flights may NOT go to the gate, but stop on the tarmac, and use a bus to get you to your gate.
55 minutes may be cutting it too close.
