    If it’s right across the street, why are there signs pointing to the different terminals in the building

    I don’t know what you think you’re seeing, but the airport is on the other side of the street.

    Now I’m kinda glad it’s mostly just a bunch of travelers waiting at an airport that would otherwise miss the game

    It isn’t a bunch of people inside an airport, it’s across the street from the airport. These are locals watching.

      I’ll let you know what I was seeing:

      That’s an airport sign pointing the The Circle and they Hyatt airport hotels at Zurich airport. The whole complex is part of the Zurich airport, so I really have no idea what you are talking about. I mean, that’s literally how The Circle advertises itself:

      I don’t doubt that there are also locals present, that’s how an airport works, after all. Honestly, we might just have a different opinion what constitutes being part of the airport though.

        You know what, if the Circle is owned by the airport then you’ve got me in regards to it being owned by the airport. However the terminals are across the street, the Circle is open to simply walk into from the street.

        To get to the Circle from the airport terminals you must take your bags and can not reenter. Nobody in the photo stuck on a layover is here unless they are willing to leave the airport and go through security again.

        There were locals because as soon as the game ended, they dispersed down the street and also I took the picture while being invited by locals to watch.
