Good Deal Price for Departure

Fly from Los Angeles to Zurich in mid-November or late March for the best prices, avoiding late June and December for peak costs.

When planning your flights from Los Angeles to Zurich, consider that prices tend to peak dramatically during late December and June, with the most notable spike occurring just before Christmas. Conversely, the best time for affordable flights typically falls in mid-November and late March, where tickets can be found at their lowest. The high season, marked by significant price increases, runs from early June until late August, ranging between $1,421 and $1,500, while the low season averages below $930. Expect a sharp price drop in early March, marking the end of winter pricing.

Best Time to Book

Book your flight from Los Angeles to Zurich 145 days in advance for the best prices; avoid waiting until less than 21 days to save significantly.

For your trip from Los Angeles to Zurich, the optimal time to buy your ticket is about 145 days before departure, when prices are at their lowest around $983. However, the period between 151 and 138 days before your travel date also offers similarly low prices, making it a suitable window for booking as well. Consider purchasing your ticket as early as 180 to 173 days prior for better seat selection, and note that prices start climbing noticeably when you get within 21 days of departure, skyrocketing from around $1,075 to nearly $1,961 last minute. If your booking is past 136 days from departure, wait until about 59 days out when prices drop again to around $993. Be cautious not to delay too long, as waiting until within 59 days can result in a significant price increase, with last-minute fares being up to 82% higher than if booked early.
