Zurich International Airport also called '''Kloten Airport''', is located at in Kloten , Canton Of Zurich , Switzerland and managed by Unique Airport. It is Switzerland's largest international flight gateway and hub to Swiss International Air Lines (soon to be a Lufthansa hub).

In 2003 , Zurich International completed a major expansion project in which it built a new parking garage, a new midfield terminal, and an automated underground train to move passengers between the existing terminal complex and the new terminal.

Zurich International lost traffic when Swissair shut down its operations. When Crossair swallowed Swissair and emerged as Swiss International Air Lines , traffic grew again.
