Although the station is situated only 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) from the main terminal of Zurich Airport, it has been bypassed by the opening, in 1980, of a new line directly serving the Zürich Airport railway station in the basement of that terminal. Kloten is now only visited by the S7 and freight trains, while all other passenger trains on the line serve the airport.
