Gentle countryside above Adelboden, on the way to the Hahnenmoos Pass on Route 87

Swiss airports to consider are either Basle, Geneva or Zürich, with regular scheduled flights from the UK being operated by major carriers throughout the year. British Airways, EasyJet and SWISS currently dominate the market from a choice of airports; Aer Lingus also flies a regular service from Dublin.

Both Geneva and Zürich airports are fully integrated into the Swiss rail network, being just an escalator ride from a mainline station, while a bus service links Basle airport with the town’s main railway station.

Fly-Rail baggage transfers: Passengers with pre-booked accommodation can take advantage of a unique ‘fly rail baggage’ scheme which enables ‘nothing to declare’ baggage checked-in at the departure airport to be transported directly to the railway station of the chosen resort. There’s no waiting at the arrival airport’s carousel, or hustling your baggage from plane to train. The system is straightforward and convenient, and also works on the homeward journey. However, the scheme is not applicable for EasyJet flights, or for British Airways passengers with ‘E’ tickets.
