Family <strong>Services</strong><br />

Before and after long flights, children should have the<br />

chance to let off some steam or relax. This is where<br />

Family <strong>Services</strong> can help.<br />

Unique play haven<br />

Zurich is one of the few airports in the world to offer staffed<br />

playrooms at Gates A and E. Kids can have fun and play to their<br />

heart’s content, while parents and infants can enjoy some peace<br />

and quiet. Children should always be accompanied by at least<br />

one adult as this is not a childcare or babysitting service.<br />

where babies can be breastfed and rested are <strong>available</strong> to<br />

parents with young children. Baby foods, juices, bottles,<br />

dummies and nappies are also provided.<br />

The service is free of charge and is <strong>available</strong> to passengers of<br />

Special assistance<br />

Our special assistance staff at Zurich Airport will accompany<br />

children and inexperienced travellers to their plane. If<br />

you require assistance, please state this when you book <strong>your</strong><br />

flight. You should arrive at the airport at least two hours prior to<br />

departure and proceed directly to <strong>your</strong> airline’s check-in desk,<br />

where the procedure will be explained to you.<br />
