We had a travel day, flying from Malta to Lisbon via Zürich. They’re all Schengen countries, which with the new biometric entrance and exit requirements, is of more significance. It will be part of future trip planning for sure.
Zürich Airport (ZRH) is totally calm for an international airport. The flight announcements sounded like a meditation Swiss Air flight 182 is now boarding at gate 2. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. Or something like that.
We also used the lounge access benefit on my credit card, now that I was aware that I had this benefit. It wasn’t as nice as the free lounge in Istanbul, but hey, free food.
We arrived in Lisbon just before midnight, and lost our ZRH zen in the chaos of the ride-hailing app pickup zone. There must have been over a hundred people waiting for their Bolt (the European version of Uber).
We arrived at our hotel around 2am. With the hour gained (we were now GMT +0) it felt like 3am.
