I also don't want to drive directly from the airport to Zermatt, but I have no choice. The hotel I have my eye on is only available for booking at this time. I will arrive in Zurich at 6:30 am on July 19th. I originally planned to stay in Gersau on the 19th, and in Zermatt on the 20th and 21st. However, the hotel I like in Zermatt is only available for the 19th and 20th. So, I have no choice but to drive that far on the first day. I think I have enough time, and I can take it slow, stopping to rest and enjoy the scenery along the way. I wonder if there are any suitable places to stop for food and sightseeing along the way. I saw on the map that Fronalstock seems nice, and it's said to have a fjord-like scenery ? Switzerland Q&A

Switzerland pays more attention to integrity. Generally, the parking lots of hotels are charged, but they are not checked. When you check out, you can simply say you didn't park. But I feel that they respect and trust you, so there is no need to lie. Some supermarkets can also allow customers to self-checkout and scan barcodes. After all, it's a highly civilized country ?

Return and inspection of the car 1. Prepare the checklist provided by the rental company before 2. Rental agreement, insurance documents, deposit receipt 3. Wash the car before returning it, both interior and exterior. Otherwise, you may be fined up to 500 Swiss francs for car washing (e.g. in Switzerland) 4. All photos taken when picking up the car 5. Return the car with a full tank of gas. Otherwise, you may be charged for refueling, which can be expensive 6. Take a photo of the fuel gauge 7.

If there are any objections, resolve them before signing. This can be a stressful time, especially if you are in a rush to catch a flight, and you may overlook certain issues. It can be difficult to resolve them once you have returned home 9. The deposit refund will depend on the rental company checking for any violations, parking tickets, or toll charges. It may take 1-2 months to receive the deposit refund, and there will be no notification. The charges will be automatically deducted Additional information: Some gas stations offer automatic and manual car wash services. Both require self-operation.

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A
