Touchdown at one of the most famously sketchy airport runways in the world!! Also known as Cristiano Ronaldo International Airport, Madeira's airport is located in Santa Cruz, about 20 mins from Funchal. It's perched on a foreland jutting out to sea, making for a visually stunning but challenging landing experience for pilots. The airport's runway is like a tabletop with steep drop-offs at either end, requiring pilots to make a 180-degree turn before landing. Despite its quirks, the airport serves as a vital hub for European flights and cargo transport in and out of the archipelago. Plus, it's named after the legendary soccer player/footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, adding a touch of star power to this already fascinating airport.
