Otherwise, why have the first restriction on a travel period of "23.11.2014 to 30.11.2014"?
Now as you mention it: very weird, I copy-pasted this from the deal page! I reckon, too, you're right.

And even the Amsterdam prices don't strike me as being particularly great deals!!!
ZRH is indeed not the cheapest departure point. Just to compare: On ZRH-BKK the KL fare is 'only' roughly $ 150 more expensive than on Etihad, which offers currently the cheapest fares. So for Swiss standards some of the KL fares are pretty good value.
