Hello,
I am trying to figure out the best (least expensive, easiest, quickest) way to get from Zurich to Amsterdam.

Any advice would be most appreciated!

Cheapest, easiest and quickest usually don't go together. Quickest will of course be flying - try KLM and SWISS. You may have to buy a return (r/t) to get a cheaper fare and don't use the return half. No budget airlines seem to fly this route, but you can try easyjet from Basel to Amsterdam.
Cheapest is probably by bus/coach - try Eurolines. Easiest is going by train, from city centre to city centre.

Hi; If you can get to Basel, as Alex suggested, Easyjet flys non-stop to Amsterdam. Takes about 1 1/2 hours. Dick www.kayak.com/

I don´t think Eurolines serves the Basel-Amsterdam relation.
The cheapest would be to book WELL in advance and to get one of teh cheap SparNight fares from CityNightLine - they offer fares from 19 € in a reclining seat, or 29 € in a couchette. But these fares sell out quickly.

2nd class couchette = $400 (for 2).

guess that's what i get for not planning in advance.
