Zurich Airport Lockers
We have a 8 hour layover in Zurich and would like to leave our luggage and go into Zurich for a few hours. The following thread states that there are lockers at the train station in the Zurich airport. Is this information current? Thanks.

Hi Ronda,
Yup, it's current. Several areas in the airport have recently been remodeled. Here is a link to the pdf-downloadable brochure for the airport -- the info you want (services) is down at about page 11 or 17. There's also a detailed map!

Hi Ronda,
Have you had any luck printing out the airport brochure? I saved it onto a disc so it's quicker and easier to look at, shifting to 200% or 400% as needed. Anyway, I'm a bit more confused after looking at it again.
The "Services" section on page 21 notes that there is a left luggage service (not lockers) open from 6 am - 10.30 pm, located at the "multi-story parking 1, at the parking cash point." Well, I can't find this darned place on the maps. I know that when I was there in June, I picked up my suitcase (sent from Zuoz) at the huge new CFF travel center on level G01 (third basement??). This area has the ticket counters, the travel service, and the luggage service, so I assumed this would be the area for the lockers and the left-luggage service as well. But I'm not so sure now! If you're hugely concerned, the phone number for the left-luggage service is 43-816-3500. But I'm certain that someone at one of the information booths will be able to help you once you arrive.
That same "Services" section says there is a "Day-Room" available for singles, doubles, and families. I don't know what exactly this entails, and there's no more information. But the phone number for that is 43-816-7274.
You may also be interested in the shower facility at the main train station in Zurich. It's called McClean, and it's located on the first basement level (1 Untergeschoss) near the front of the station (between the row of tracks 3-18 and the tourist office). I think that a shower and change of clothes may add a lot to your comfort level after an overnight flight and before a seven-hour layover! A regular poster here named Andre gave links to the airport and bahnhof maps, but I can't find the link to the bahnhof map right now.
Anyway, enjoy your time in Zurich!

Thanks for all your research, s, but I think with the information you have given me, I will be able to find the lockers. I know where the TI is so if I have any questions, I'll ask there.
