Traveling to Switzerland/Italy

Great airfare deal to Zurich in April. Is it crazy to visit in mid-April?

There are better times to go there, but why not? I think a person should go when they can. Just plan for the weather and know that it will still be cold and snowy in the mountains.

That is a very good time for Italy. I personally would not spend time in Switzerland in April. But you can stay one night in Zurich and take a train to Milan the next morning, and from there head to Venice, Verona, Florence, or whatever you wish to see.

Which airline has the great deal, and where are you departing from?

We are looking at similar deals for first week of May! Would be my 14 yr old daughter and me... Will you drive or take trains? I love the idea of getting a car and exploring, but I'm not sure if it's that simple in a foreign country!

April 2018 in Switzerland was sunny and warm. So you might be lucky. Go to Ticino for the best bet on weather.
