A group of between 80 and 100 environmental activists pushed through security gates at Geneva International Airport in Switzerland today (May 23) to protest the ongoing European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE). Wearing yellow high-visibility vests that resembled those worn by security personnel, protestors breached the gates surrounding the EBACE static display ramp at around 11:30 a.m. local time. Some handcuffed themselves to aircraft and chanted anti-business aviation slogans. Some carried banners reading "#BanPrivateJets" and "WARNING: Private jets drown our hope."
