Review of AlpTransfer’s private Zurich Airport pickup, including price, meeting point, flight delays, vehicle comfort, and booking advice.
“We notified this company that our flight was delayed slightly due to weather but their response was that we’d be considered a “No Show” and forfeit our payment. Upon looking for the Taxi line, we found the driver holding the sign containing our name and figured this meant they were following through on the ride. We walked with our bags to this driver’s car and he informed us he’d only take us if we paid him another $70 cash. We declined this for multiple reasons and took the train. Save your money and take a traditional taxi / Uber or the train.”
