The parts people get wrong. Each one links to where we checked it.

  • Hours

    Verkehrsverbund Luzern's own service page confirms IR70 runs Luzern-Rotkreuz-Zürich HB-Zürich Flughafen (continuing to St Gallen/Chur beyond the airport), a genuine InterRegio product rather than an IC-numbered line - independent snapshots put the direct Zürich HB-Luzern leg at 41-45 minutes.

  • Easy to get wrong

    This is the same train that continues past Zürich HB to Zürich Airport, so a traveller starting from the airport rather than Zürich HB can board without changing at the main station - see the airport-to-city corridor above.
