Voyager base: LSZS Samedan Airport

This is a virtual airline achievement created by Voyager Aviation.

Get this achievement simply by flying out of one of our home bases: LSZS.

At the end of World War II, Swiss authorities identified existing locations that were to be modernized with new regional airports, as second tiers of infrastructure to support the primary urban airports, with Samedan being one of the five.

At an elevation of 1,707 metres (5,600 ft), it is the second highest airliner airport in Europe (with Courchevel being the highest). It is also considered one of the most challenging airports in the world by non voyager pilots because of its difficult topography and winds, and because of the thinness of the air at its altitude. Voyager has a base there because we laugh at the face of danger.
