Two Swiss International Air Lines Airbus A320 aircraft are visible at Zurich Airport, Switzerland's largest international airport. The aircraft, identified by their red and white tails featuring the Swiss cross, are part of the national carrier's fleet. One aircraft, registration HB-IJD, is being towed by a ground vehicle, a common operation for repositioning aircraft on the tarmac. Zurich Airport, opened in 1948, serves as a major hub for air travel in Europe and is known for its efficient operations and modern architecture, exemplified by the terminal building's glass facade.
