Flying West (No. 1)
Lake Constance (German: Bodensee) refers to three bodies of water on the Rhine at the northern foot of the Alps: Upper Lake Constance (Obersee), Lower Lake Constance (Untersee), and a connecting stretch of the Rhine, called the Lake Rhine (Seerhein). These waterbodies lie within the Lake Constance Basin (Bodenseebecken) in the Alpine Foreland through which the Rhine flows. The nearby Mindelsee is not considered part of Lake Constance.
The lake is situated where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet. Its shorelines lie in the German states of Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria; the Swiss cantons of St. Gallen, Thurgau, and Schaffhausen; and the Austrian state of Vorarlberg. The actual locations of the country borders within the lake are disputed.

Switzerland to cease checking passports of passengers flying from Bulgaria and Romania
The Swiss Federal Council has approved a decision that will facilitate travelling between Switzerland, Bulgaria and Romania, according to SchengenVisaInfo.com.
According to the Federal Council, the government decided to stop checking passports at its airports for people departing from Bulgaria and Romania from March 31, 2024. The move followed the EU Council’s decision to abolish air and sea border controls with the two countries.
“At its meeting on January 24, the Federal Council approved Switzerland’s response. For Switzerland, the adoption means, in particular, that from March 31, there will be no more checks at airports for people travelling to and from Bulgaria and Romania.”
However, the Council warned the public not to expect a significant increase in migration due to the decision, based on the experience of Croatia’s accession to the Schengen area early last year. However, it also emphasised that existing measures would be used to combat irregular and cross-border migration if necessary.
