Map and area
WeRide: Two WeRide Robobuses ('Nimbus' and 'Stratus') run an airside staff shuttle for Flughafen Zürich between the staff entrance at Gate 101 and the workshop at Gate 130, with stops on the way and no taxiway crossings. Up to eight riders, 30 km/h. Employees have ridden since about June 2025 with a safety driver; since early September 2026 the buses run with no one on board, watched from a remote cockpit, and staff rides in that mode were due to follow about four weeks of testing. The pilot is planned until the end of 2026. Airport staff only. Pickup points, not a service area.
