A licensed Swiss chauffeur, a fare fixed in writing before you travel, and a car that waits when the flight does not arrive on time.
Lausanne is the Olympic capital and a university city, and the work here divides neatly between sporting institutions, the polytechnic and the corporate offices along the lake. Almost all of it is motorway from Kloten, and almost all of the difficulty is in the last fifteen minutes.
The city is built on a steep slope. Addresses that look adjacent on a map are separated by a climb, and a drop-off agreed in advance saves more time here than on any other route of comparable length.

The A1 west through Bern and the Broye, then along the lake into Lausanne. Ouchy, the centre and the polytechnic campus at Écublens are three quite different approaches and are worth naming at booking.
A lowland route with no pass. Fog in the Broye is the winter factor; nothing closes.
On distance, yes. On schedule it depends on the inbound — the desk quotes the Zurich collection so the comparison is explicit.
That is the hourly service. The car is held between stops and the day is quoted in advance.
Yes, and they are reached before the city centre, which usually makes them the faster drop.
