From beaches to golf courses: The world’s most unusual airport runways
???? ????
When it comes to travel, wherever you are in the world, some things never change. McDonald’s is always McDonald’s. A hotel lobby is always a hotel lobby. An inflight safety demonstration is always a safety demonstration, and an airport runway is an airport runway: a long, clean-lined strip of asphalt free of all external interference; a sterile environment that could be anywhere on the planet.

Or maybe not. Because when it comes to airport runways, once the safety side is taken care of, in a few parts of the world, things get a little inventive. Maybe you’ll land on a manmade island in the middle of the sea. Maybe you’ll wave at golfers on the 18-hole course between the two runways. Or maybe you’ll hit the beach faster than expected — by stepping off the airplane onto the sand.

From runways you can drive across to weird and wonderful airport locations, here are 12 of our favorite out-there runways.

Barra Airport, Scotland (BRR)
If nothing comes between you and your beach break, then Barra, in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, is your kind of airport. This is the only place in the world where the runway is on the beach itself.

Just one flight route operates here: Loganair’s 140-mile connection with Glasgow, using 19-seater de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft. Pilots heading to Barra — an island just eight miles long — must line up and touch down on Traigh Mhor, a wide bay in the north of the island (if Barra is shaped like a turtle, Traigh Mhor is its neck), landing straight onto the sand. Flights must be timed with the tides to allow as much space to land and take off as possible.

Passengers walk across the beach to the terminal on the other side of the dunes, then get a last bit of sand underfoot as they board the aircraft for the flight back to the mainland. With these conditions, it’s little wonder that flights are canceled with a fair amount of regularity — so you may want to build in extra time before planning onward connections.

But even a delayed return is worth it for avgeeks. On this tiny plane, passengers experience the flight in close proximity to the pilots — when CNN took a spin on the flight in 2019, they could even see the pilot’s GPS instruments from their seat.

Hong Kong International Airport (HKG)
In Hong Kong, the islet of Chek Lap Kok was massively extended to create an island big enough to house a major international airport.

For the busiest cargo airport in the world, you need space. Luckily, Hong Kong created an entire island for its airport which, when it opened, had the world’s largest passenger terminal, too. Built to replace its predecessor (a single runway in crowded Kowloon, which was notorious for its violent turns on take-off and landing), HKG sits over the original islet of Chek Lap Kok, which was quadrupled in size with reclaimed land to house the two-runway airport. President Bill Clinton was among the first foreigners to touch down after the airport opened in 1998.

Located next to Lantau Island, the airport has views for days — the sides of the terminals are largely glass, built to shatter (and therefore preserve the building) during potential typhoons. Even getting there is a treat — the 1.4-mile Tsing Ma bridge, which connects HKG to Ma Wan island, heading towards the city, debuted as the longest road-and-rail suspension bridge in the world.

Disney made a smart choice’
Despite the comparisons, Abu Dhabi isn’t positioning itself as a direct rival to Orlando — it’s aiming to be something more. The emirate sees its theme parks as part of a bigger portfolio of attractions, alongside cultural landmarks, luxury hotels, pristine beaches, and desert adventures.

A 15-minute drive from Yas Island, Saadiyat Island is home to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, a franchised outpost of the famous Paris art museum, which welcomed 1.4 million visitors last year, 84% from abroad. The Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and Zayed National Museum are both under construction, adding to a cultural district that will be one of the region’s most concentrated hubs of art and heritage.

“Abu Dhabi’s unique appeal lies in the diversity of our tourism offering,” Al Geziry added. “For thrill-seekers, we have record-breaking roller coasters and dune bashing in the desert. For culture lovers, historic sites like Al Ain Oasis and institutions like the Saadiyat museums. And for luxury travelers, world-class dining, private island resorts, and high-end shopping.

“Where else can you start your day under the Louvre’s iconic rain-of-light dome and end it in the immersive, story-driven worlds of Warner Bros. World or Ferrari World?”

Still, not everyone is convinced that Disney’s expansion into the Middle East is a sure bet.

“The region has seen its share of false starts,” says Dennis Speigel, founder of the International Theme Park Services consultancy, comparing it to neighboring Dubai’s patchy record with theme park expansion ambitions in the mid-2010s. “Several of them struggled for profitability in their first decade.”

Spiegel believes Abu Dhabi is different. “Disney made a smart choice. The infrastructure, safety, and existing leisure developments create an ideal entry point,” he told CNN earlier this year. “It’s a much more controlled and calculated move.”

Under its Tourism Strategy 2030, Abu Dhabi aims to grow annual visitors from 24 million in 2023 to more than 39 million by the end of the decade. With Disneyland as a centerpiece, those targets may well be surpassed. The city’s population has already grown from 2.7 million in 2014 to more than 4.1 million today, a reflection of its rising profile as a regional hub.

Yas Island alone has been transformed in the space of a decade from a largely undeveloped stretch of sand to a self-contained resort destination, complete with golf courses, marinas, a mall, more than 160 restaurants, and a cluster of high-end hotels.

Orlando’s head start remains formidable — it still offers multiple Disney and Universal parks, has decades of brand loyalty, and an infrastructure built to handle tens of millions of tourists annually.

But Abu Dhabi is catching up fast. Its combination of frictionless travel, year-round comfort, cutting-edge attractions, and a cultural scene that adds depth to the experience gives Abu Dhabi its own unique selling point, potentially offering a model for the next generation of theme park capital.

Holzdekoration fur Terrassen in Berlin

Berlin ist eine Stadt, die sich durch ihre vielfaltigen Architekturstile auszeichnet. Besonders attraktiv sind dabei Terrassen, die ein schones Ambiente bieten und den Au?enbereich zu einem begehrten Aufenthaltsort machen. In diesem Artikel werden verschiedene Arten von Gehobelten Brettern sowie Bangkirai und Merbau, zwei tropische Holzer, vorgestellt, die haufig fur Terrassendielen verwendet werden.
Bangkirai und Merbau in Aachen
¦ Gehobelte Bretter - Larche in Berlin kaufen

Dieses Material findet man hauptsachlich bei Spezialisten fur Holzprodukte oder Baumarkten wie Hornbach und Bauhaus. Es gibt jedoch auch Online-Anbieter, die liefern lassen. Larchenholz zeichnet sich durch seine hohe Dauerhaftigkeit und Wetterbestandigkeit aus, was es besonders geeignet macht fur au?entragende Flachen wie Terrassen.

¦ Preise & Qualitat
Bangkirai und Merbau in Berlin
Preislich variiert das Angebot je nach Herkunft des Materials. Eine qualitativ hochwertige Larche kann leicht uber €10 pro Quadratmeter kosten. Wer auf Budget achtet, sollte auf Markenartikel achten, die oft im Rahmen von Sonderangeboten erhaltlich sind.

¦ Bangkirai und Merbau in Berlin

Fur Kunden, die etwas Exotischeres suchen, stehen tropische Holzer wie Bangkirai und Merbau zur Verfugung. Diese beiden Sorten sind bekannt fur ihre asthetischen Eigenschaften sowie ihre Bestandigkeit gegen Schimmel und Insektenbefall. Obwohl sie mehr kosten als traditionelle Holzer wie Eiche oder Fichte, lohnt sich der Zukauf aufgrund ihrer langen Lebensdauer.

¦ Verarbeitung & Pflege
Bangkirai und Merbau in Berlin
Beide Holzer sollten regelma?ig geolt werden, um ihr Aussehen zu erhalten und vor Feuchtigkeitsschaden zu schutzen. Hierzu empfehlen Experten spezielle Ole, die fur Tropenholzer entwickelt wurden.

¦ Bangkirai und Merbau in Aachen

Auch au?erhalb Berlins sind diese exotischen Holzer beliebt. So findet man sie zum Beispiel in Aachen, wo sie ebenfalls in Baumarkten und Online-Shops angeboten werden. Die Preise entsprechen denen in Berlin und liegen abhangig vom Anbieter zwischen €15 und €30 pro Quadratmeter.

¦ Terrassendielen mit dunnen Nuten konnen in Berlin erworben werden

Neben klassischen Brettern sind auch Dielen mit dunnen Nuten sehr gefragt. Sie ermoglichen eine schnelle Montage und sorgen fur einen modernen Look. Fur solche Produkte ist insbesondere der Online-Handel interessant, da hier eine gro?e Auswahl an Formaten und Farben verfugbar ist.

¦ Vorteile dieser Terrassendielen

Ein besonderer Vorteil dieser Systeme liegt darin, dass sie nicht nur optisch anspruchsvoll sind, sondern auch robust und wetterfest sind. Durch die dunne Nut lasst sich das Wasser besser ableiten, was vor Algenbildung schutzt.

¦ Holz Bangkirai Berlin

In Berlin hat sich Bangkirai mittlerweile etabliert als eines der bevorzugten Holzer fur Terrassenbelag. Seine rotliche Farbe passt hervorragend zu modernen Wohnungsarchitekturen und unterstreicht den Naturcharakter des Materials. Auch wenn Bangkirai anfangs teurer erscheinen mag, so zahlen sich seine Vorteile wie Dauerhaftigkeit und Robustheit schnell wieder aus.

¦ Terrassendielen glatt Berlin

Zuruckhaltender und klassischer wirken hingegen glatte Terrassendielen. Dieser Typ wird ebenfalls gerne eingesetzt, vor allem dann, wenn man einen ruhigeren Stil wunscht. Mit einer guten Abriebfestigkeit eignen sie sich ideal fur Familien mit Kindern oder Haustieren.

¦ Schlussfolgerung

Ob klassisches Larchenholz, exotische Sorten wie Bangkirai und Merbau oder moderne Diensysteme mit dunnen Nuten - jeder Geschmack findet sein passendes Material in Berlin. Unabhangig davon, welches Holz gewahlt wird, sollte immer darauf geachtet werden, dass es ordnungsgema? behandelt und gepflegt wird, damit es lange Freude bereitet.

The scale of these recent attacks means Ukraine needs any help it can get to minimize the impacts – and volunteers are playing an increasingly important role in the defensive mix.

Civilians are forming units tasked with shooting down smaller drones with machine guns or, most recently, specially developed interceptor drones.
kra46 cc
The chief of staff of one of Kyiv’s volunteer formation legions, Andriy, whose call-sign is Stolyar, said his unit is composed of people from all walks of life – from construction workers to businessmen to poets.

He told CNN the training for his legion lasts for about six weeks and includes basic knowledge, simulator practice and topography lessons. Andriy asked for his last name not to be published for security reasons.

“A person must understand how to operate an aircraft. Drones are becoming increasingly complex – this is aviation, and it requires constant attention, knowledge, and skills,” he said.

About us
The Customer Value Finance (CVF) Fund is a specialized financing entity designed for series A and series B startups. We provide non-collateralised financing. We focuse specifically on optimizing customer acquisition spending by treating Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) as capital expenditures (CapEx), rather than operating expenses. The Fund introduces a financial metric called EBITCAC (EBITDA plus CAC), providing clearer visibility into true profitability and growth potential.

What CVF Fund Offers:
/01
Structured CAC Financing
Treats customer acquisition expenses as predictable, asset-like investments, funding them through structured, revenue-based financing separate from equity

/02
Capital Efficiency
Frees up equity capital for essential activities like product development, R&D, and innovation

/03
Long-Term Value Creation
Allows businesses to maintain aggressive growth strategies without being constrained by short-term EBITDA targets, thus driving higher long-term equity value

/04
Enhanced Profit Visibility
Uses EBITCAC, a metric reflecting genuine cash generation capabilities after CAC returns, demonstrating the true growth and profitability profile of a company
