We're flying in to Zurich and have about 1 1/2 hours until we need to be on the train. Is that enough time to claim baggage (go through customs) and get over to the train station?
Thanks! Sharon

Is your train leaving from the Zurich "HB" station? That's in downtown Zurich, about 10 minutes by train from the airport.
Trains from the Zurich airport to Zurich HB leave every few minutes, so I think you'll be safe - as long as collecting your bags and getting through immigration goes without any hitches.

Hopefully you mean that's how long you have 'til your train departs from the airport rail station. If so, you should be okay if your flight is on time...but it's tight! Are there maybe later departures from the downtown rail station if you get there?

I just remembered that there is a program to have your bags taken from the plane and put onto your train. Check out the Rail Europe site - they had details there last year. You pay per bag. It might only be SwissAir, it might only be within Switzerland. www.raileurope.com
