THE WORLD’S MOST DANGEROUS AIRPORT
Those with a fear of flying and a ticket to Lukla Airport will want to look away now. This airport boasts the unwanted honour of being known as the world’s most dangerous airport and one look at its unique airstrip will explain why. With a fall of 9,200 ft awaiting passengers at the end of the runaway, flying to or from this Asian destination is not for the faint of heart. Tenzing-Hillary Airport, also known as Lukla Airport, is a small airport in the town of Lukla, in Khumbu, eastern Nepal, and has been named by the History Channel and many seasoned travellers as being the most dangerous airport in the world. These photographs, captured by photographer Wojciech Zwierzynski, 34, capture the petrifying landing at Lukla Airport, Nepal. ‘It was a very scary experience flying in the airship, mainly because two days before my flight, the plane from the same company had crashed and 14 people died,’ said Wojciech
