How these benefits work

One item at Baur au Lac stands apart: connecting rooms are guaranteed at the time of booking, not left to the day's availability. The upgrade, by contrast, is decided on arrival and depends on what remains unsold that day. Breakfast is a buffet for up to two guests per bedroom, served in the restaurant. Each stay carries a 100 USD equivalent food and beverage credit, not combinable with other offers, not valid on the room rate, with no cash value if left unused, alongside a surprise welcome amenity. Early check-in and late check-out should be requested ahead and are confirmed on the day. These are the 2026 Virtuoso reference amenities, and which apply, along with the rate and cancellation terms, follow the live rate for your dates.

Pick your dates and the button carries them into the live rate page; leave them empty and it still works.

Is the rate at Baur au Lac higher when you book through FlyBest?

No. The live rate comes from the hotel's own inventory; we add no mark-up and charge no service fee. A rate carrying the Virtuoso amenities is normally the same price as the public rate for the same room, though different rate codes can differ in price, breakfast and cancellation terms, so the live rate page is what to go by before you book.

Is the room upgrade at Baur au Lac guaranteed?

No. The directory line reads “Upgrade on arrival, subject to availability Daily Buffet breakfast for up to two guests per bedroom, served in the restaurant”: the hotel arranges it from whatever is unsold that day, so it cannot be locked in beforehand and a particular room type cannot be promised. If the upgrade matters for this trip, say so when you book and we will put the request to the hotel.

Can the credit at Baur au Lac be used against the room rate?

The directory line reads “$100 USD equivalent Food & Beverage credit utilized during stay (not combinable, not valid on room rate, no cash value if not redeemed in full)”. The credit is for on-property spending during the stay, settled on the room account at check-out, and cannot be applied to the room rate. It cannot be combined with other offers. Anything left unused has no cash value.
