Zurich (ZRH) tracks 8 destinations in this dataset, all of them international, all long-haul, and all in South Asia: Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Delhi, Mumbai, Kathmandu, Dhaka and Colombo. Only 2, Delhi and Mumbai, carry a verified historical direct-service record.
The split runs cleanly along country lines rather than distance: both of Zurich's Indian routes are verified, and none of its Pakistani, Nepali, Bangladeshi or Sri Lankan routes are, even though a couple of those unverified routes, Kathmandu and Dhaka, are shorter than some verified India routes elsewhere in this dataset. For an agent, that reads as Zurich's India coverage here being genuinely documented, likely tied to Swiss International Air Lines' long-standing India service, while the rest of Zurich's tracked South Asian network is better treated as a distance and routing reference than confirmed nonstop service.
All 8 of Zurich's tracked routes run 6.5 to 9.4 hours and sit entirely within South Asia. There's no tracked North America, UK or Australia city pair for Zurich in this particular dataset, which reflects the specific route set covered here rather than the full extent of Zurich's real global network.

Only 2 of Zurich's 8 tracked routes, Delhi and Mumbai, carry a verified historical operating record, both flown by Swiss International Air Lines and Air India. The other 6, including the shorter Kathmandu and Dhaka pairs, show no verified nonstop service in this dataset.
OpenFlights' historical route dataset records 2 carriers operating this city pair, flying Airbus A330-300. It's the best-served pair in Zurich's whole tracked network — still confirm current-day operation and schedule in your GDS before quoting, since this dataset reflects historical service, not a live timetable.

AI Air India LimitedLX Swiss International Air LinesZRH works as the origin code in an Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo or Apollo availability search the same way for every route here. Given how narrow this tracked set is, always cross-check a client's actual routing and carrier in your GDS rather than assuming coverage based on distance alone.

Replace xxx with the destination's own 3-letter IATA code from the tables above — the availability-check syntax itself doesn't change by destination, only the city pair does.

Delhi and Mumbai. The other 6, Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Kathmandu, Dhaka and Colombo, show no verified record in this dataset.
It means this particular historical dataset has no documented direct-service record between Zurich and Islamabad, Karachi or Lahore, not that no flight exists today. Confirm current routing directly in your GDS before quoting these itineraries.
Islamabad is shortest at 5,485 km and about 6.5 hours; Colombo is longest at 8,021 km and about 9.4 hours.
Swiss International Air Lines and Air India Limited both appear on the Delhi and Mumbai routes, per OpenFlights' historical route records.
