Flight Operations to the World Economic Forum, Davos
After a two-year hiatus, the World Economic Forum will return to Davos from May 22-26.
Under the theme of, “Working Together, Restoring Trust”, topics up for discussion will include economic recovery in the wake of the pandemic, tackling climate change, harnessing new technologies, and achieving peace.
WEF 2022 will be the first physical leadership event since the COVID-19 pandemic and will bring a lot of business jet traffic to Switzerland.
Parking at airports in the region is likely to be limited so operators are urged to plan ahead and reserve spots early.
Zurich is the nearest big international airport, but ground time may be restricted; Dübendorf (LSMD) and Friedrichshafen (EDNY) are good alternatives.
