Observation Deck B

Observation Deck B is one of the most popular excursion destinations in Switzerland and unique in the world. Visitors to the terrace are a mere 100 meters away from aircraft departing or landing and are therefore in the middle of all the aviation action. The terrace is ideal for large public events, exhibitions or summer parties. Sections of the terrace or the entire area can be rented exclusively.

Due to the proximity to flight movements as well as the open design, all visitors to the terrace must pass through security. Guests can then move freely on the terrace and leave independently.
