It was a nice surprise being able to walk to our hotel directly from the airport on well maintained side walks and cross walks.

    I’m biking to the Zürich airport tomorrow on a national cycle route. According to Komoot there is a cycle path leading to the airport entrance. When I get there i’m going to purchase a bicycle box and pack my bike.

    Why can’t this be a thing in more airports?

      I tried to do this on a local airport and I didn’t find any place to park my bike despite the big parking lot, then I locked it in a random light post and kept praying the whole time so it would be there when I come back

    They’ll never know the freedom and priviledge of jumping fences and sprinting across 8 lane highways to get to the airport.

      Here in the US, airports aren’t car or pedestrian friendly… No parking, crazy traffic, etc … they aren’t even airplane friendly… Planes are late at least 25% of the time

    This is pedestrian friendly? Surely out of all places, an airport should be pedestrian friendly. You can’t bring your car on the plane.
