Notes on this episode

How can you find your perfect flight home? It's all about a combination of the below factors:

  • Price

  • Flight time

  • Airlines

  • Airport location and connections

What marks the different Swiss airports apart? We discuss the pros and cons of flying from Basel, Bern, Geneva or Zurich.

And don't forget, these are the basics of finding a cheap flight:

  • Book early

  • Compare flights using sites such as Skyscanner and have a look on the airlines' own websites too

  • Only take hand luggage

  • If you can, don't fly out Friday evening and return Sunday evening
