Geneva
About 4 km from the city centre. Private flights use the separate business aviation terminal (T3). The airport is slot-coordinated. Under Swiss rules it is closed to departures after midnight (until 06:00) and to arrivals (until 05:00). The ski resorts are reached by road or helicopter.
Airport and terminal use depends on the operator, the date and slot availability, and is confirmed with every quote.
