Make My Gate: Zurich’s Connection Reality Check

Field notes

The planner models a connection as a sequence of wayfinding, passport-control, security, and timing checks rather than as a simple distance estimate. Its evaluation uses the same documents across four retrieval designs and tests both original questions and 50 rewordings containing typos, alternate time expressions, and changed gate notation. The page explicitly separates pipeline consistency from real-world airport accuracy, noting that walking and queue times are estimates and that one commonly cited minimum-connection rule lacks a source.
