Switzerland has two main airports – Zurich and Geneva where most of the international traffic lands. Samedan is also quite nice for photography during wintertimes with a spectacular scenery.

For some people, the grounding of Swissair on 2 October 2001 was the worst moment of Swiss civil aviation. This event not only meant a new start in a – then – unknown future, but it also affected in particular Zurich Airport, where Swissair was the dominant carrier.
