Just two questions:
1. This is a non-Schengen to non-Schengen connection, so I don't need a transit visa as long as I stay within airside, right? (I am not US citizen)
2. I don't have any *A status. Which lounge(s) could I use?
Thanks in advance!
Hi. Yes, you can stay airside. No problem at all. You will transfer within Terminal E, which is the small satellite terminal. No need to ride the Heidi train. There is exactly one lounge there you can access, no need to compare
Do you require a visa for Switzerland? If no, I would suggest for a transfer time over 4 hours to definitely go landside. If yes, then I'm sorry but spotting planes in the lounge (which is nothing to write home about) will be all you can do. There is free internet, decent amount of newspapers, some basic hot and cold food, enough alcohol but nothing of high standard. At least the view on the tarmac is good.
