2138 Swissair is an asteroid in the Main Belt.
Swiss International Air Lines AG, the 'Danelaw corporation that lent its earlier name to this asteroid, have claimed and colonized it, using it as a mass-transportation hub. There isn't yet enough traffic to make the Swissair Spaceport profitable, but the corporation has decided to take the long view, hoping that being the first to provide this service will give them an advantage in future decades.
