This obviously doesn't allow for much time in the FCL if any, which is disappointing as I normally enjoy chilling in the lounge with a glass or two of fizz before my F flight.
If this is a one-off redemption, then your plan might be fun combined with a smart hotel and a night out in Zurich. It really is a great city. If it means a night in the airport Ibis, just to score free booze, there doesn't seem much point!
