Thanks Nylon for the info and tips! I sort of like the idea of being outside town and up a bit, altitude-wise.

I hope you have a wonderful time.

As a UA person based in IAD, the IAD-ZRH direct flight is just too easy to pass up (particularly with two F award seats available when we wanted to go!!). I realize it's a 5-hour train ride to Zermatt, but then, I like Swiss trains!
