I love this connection, and often would go for petite lunch with the OS crew to the pizzeria at the tennis club. Loved the fast track on both sides , and the lady in the gift shop was a gem beyond imagination. The espresso made you feel right home like in Italy. Load capacity was certainly averaging 60%. Walking out to the airplane in that scenery was such a superb feeling of awe each time. Some of the dives during landing were tremendously dynamic, and I'm sure not according to all regulations for landing approaches .

It's quite unfortunate I get sick on the SBB train to Lugano (not sure why: breaking fluid and/or tilting train), but in the future I'll have to go by car. R.I.P. LUG, if I found the necessary investors, I'd definitely buy this historic place.
