Hi again, does anyone have knowledge of the bus schedules from Menaggio to Lugano on a Sunday in July? I am researching the best way to get from Menaggio to Zurich airport. Train schedules seem a little confusing. Originally I thought to take a train from Como to Zurich, but going to Lugano might be a better option. I think I should be looking at the C12 schedule for Sunday "festivo"?

Assume you are looking at this one: http://www.menaggio.com/ita/e-lakes/Orari_bus.pdf
Estivo is summer (which July is in the northern hemisphere), F= festivo which is Sundays and public holidays, and no notation indicates daily. F5 = Monday to Friday and F6 = Monday to Saturday.
Looks like the soonest you could get to Zurich airport is 2:47 pm, by way of Menaggio and Lugano. Taking the 5:23 train to Milan you could get there by 10:47.

Sure hope you are not trying to make the 5PM flight, by leaving Menaggio that morning.
Roberto's suggestion to stay the night before your flight in Lucerne looks like an excellent suggestion.

Since I see you are in Bellagio, take the 8:02 bus that runs Sunday to Como San Giovanni station arriving 9:15, then the 10:03 EC train to Zurich arriving at 12:51 connecting to a train to Zurich airport at 1:01 pm arriving at 1:13 pm. That should be good for a 5:00 pm flight.
