About the airport
Zurich airport saw its first flights take off in 1948 and it has been growing ever since. In 2015 it was named the Number 1 Airport in Europe by the World Travel Awards and the winner in the 20-30 million passengers category at the Skytrax World Airport Awards thanks to regular improvements and innovations.
The airport is constantly improving the experience of its passengers with new facilities, new routes and new carriers. Impressively, as well as the usual airside facilities, there is also the Airport Centre, — a landside shopping centre that’s open to the general public, even those not flying.
