Would you book a connection through ZRH on purpose over a tighter routing?

I am comparing two itineraries and one of them connects through Zurich Airport with a longer stop.

The appeal is fast transfers plus great train integration. The hesitation is expensive food for long waits.

Would you intentionally route through Zurich if the total trip time was a bit longer but the layover quality looked much better?

I would absolutely choose ZRH on purpose if the airport quality meaningfully lowers the chance of a chaotic connection day.

The best itinerary is not always the shortest one. Sometimes the calmer hub is worth far more than the saved hour on paper.

That said, if expensive food for long waits is tied to the season or the exact bank of flights you are using, I would model that before committing.

A longer routing only wins when the extra time actually buys comfort, flexibility, or a better recovery window.
