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 />
