Zurich : private jet rental

Zurich : Introduction

Zurich Airport, also known as Kloten, is Switzerland’s main international airport and the gateway to the region for a large number of domestic and international flights. With no fewer than four terminals reserved for private jets, it is also one of the country’s largest business airports.

It serves as a hub for Swiss International Air Lines and, since the takeover of Swiss by Lufthansa, as the latter’s third hub. A great deal of investment was made in the airport before the bankruptcy of Swissair, for which it was the main (and then almost the only) home base.

Choosing AEROAFFAIRES is the assurance of renting the private jet best suited to your needs, saving you time and money.
