Mayday Bar

Salzburg


Peer down at the Flying Bulls aviation enthusiasts’ rare historical aircraft through the glass walls at this crystalline bar, part of the airport’s futuristic Hangar-7 complex. Strikingly illuminated by night, it’s a unique place for signature cocktails such as Hendrick's heaven (Red Bull, gin, cucumber and lime).
