34 European Airports That Turn Layovers Into a Mini-Vacation

34. Geneva Airport (GVA): Lakeside Serenity & Global Hub

A 5-7 hour layover at Geneva Airport allows for a refreshing encounter with Swiss precision and natural beauty. The train from the airport to the city center (Cornavin station) takes less than 10 minutes! From there, a short walk brings you to Lake Geneva. Marvel at the Jet d'Eau, one of the city's most famous landmarks, stroll along the quays, or enjoy a quick boat trip. You can also visit the Jardin Anglais with its Flower Clock. It’s a compact, elegant taste of international Switzerland and serene lakeside landscapes.
