[19th November, 05-2330z] Geneva Real Operating Hours
Have you ever wished for an event that offered more than just typical evening coverage? Longed for the excitement of a fully staffed day of plentiful flight opportunities? Hoped for a chance to enjoy Alpine sights at dawn and lakeside views at dusk?
Well we have exactly what you are looking for; our iconic "Geneva Real Operating Hours" event is back for a 2023 edition on the 19th of November where you can expect ATC from the early hours of 05:00z until the height of midnight at 23:30z!
Start your day early with a morning walk-around of your aircraft and welcome your passengers just as the sun starts casting its warm reddish hue over the mountains. Brave the morning fog as you de-ice your wings and prepare for a full day of excitement and anticipation just as the hustle and bustle of this packed and busy airport begins to fill the air. Part the clouds with your take-off and with it pave the way for hundreds of aircraft throughout the day to tackle this challenging and dense airspace.
Or is the excitement of busy frequencies handling stacked holding patterns more your cup of tea? Then excuse yourself from the dining room table and plan your arrival into Geneva during the lunchtime or dinner rush, where our sectors will be at capacity handling complex situations and high traffic efficiently, creating the perfect sequence onto the long ILS. And with only one runway to handle all movements, keep your eyes on the target, your charts at hand and your ears peeled for that late landing clearance you're waiting for.
Perhaps a leisurely sightseeing flight is more your interest; fly VFR in some of Switzerland's most scenic environments, an experience that will be sure to keep your cameras full and your fuel tanks empty. Stop off for a croissant in Sion, a coffee in Gstaad, a fondue in Gruyère or perhaps a Sunday brunch in Lausanne - with a number of stunning airports just a stone's throw away, the options for your pleasant stroll around the lake are endless.
We are eager to welcome you into this jewel of the Swiss Romandy during an entire day jam packed with beautiful views, busy frequencies and high-intensity operations! The stage is set and Geneva is ready to spend a day in the lights; so get yourself a front row seat and join us on the 19th of November for a day bound for the history books.
