('Runway closures at EWR warrant 'limited, conditional schedule relief' because the impacts to operations are beyond the carriers’ control and extend throughout 2025, the FAA said. Weekend closures will occur from March 1 to April 14, 2025, and Sept. 1 to Dec. 31, 2025, with daily closures from April 15 to June 15, 2025.")

Unless you need to stop over in ZRH, have you checked pricing on other carriers via the Pacific?
Business class deals are better in this United route..

Is the return being considered at this time?
2 hours at ORD and 2 hours at ZRH.

I think I saw a LAX-IAD-ZRH-BOM option but not sure. Won't weather affect IAD as much as EWR. I am traveling in 3 weeks.
