I will be flying from BOS to ZRH on 7/14-&/15 over night and would have a 50 minute layover before flying to ZAG. Here is the actual itinerary:

BOS -> ZRH
Swiss Air LX0053 7/15 10:55 AM (Terminal E)

ZRH -> ZAG
Croatia Air OU0461 7/15 11:45 AM (Terminal D I think)

I believe both terminals should be non-Schengen (USA & Croatia), will I still have to go through security and/or passport control? Also, with switching airlines will I have to claim luggage outside security?

Welcome to FT, msd5568!

Since you will be connecting from non-Schengen to non-Schengen you don't have to go through passport control but you will almost certainly have to clear security. Your luggage may be checked through to your final destination.

If you miss the connection you will have a rather long layover in ZRH.
