iOS - Displaying all annotations

I am currently working on a piece of functionality using the MapKit. I have ran into a slight problem. Currently I have all my annotations on my map and are displaying when you move the map around.

However, I am trying to get all my pins to be displayed at the same time. I know this isn't possible due to the below link and the limitations of the zoom - my pins can spread across the entire world.

Now I know this is outside of our control but in this scenario the map can sometimes centre between annotations. For example:

Pin in Antartica
Pin in Artic Ocean above Russia.

It will focus the centre of the map roughly on India - 1/2 point between the two pins.

Is there a way of forcing at least one or more pins to be visible if none are visible?

All Annotation is not visible to user in MKMapView

You can try this to zoom out and show all annotations

func zoomToFitMapAnnotations(aMapView:MKMapView)
{
    if(aMapView.annotations.count == 0)
    {
          return
    }

    var topLeftCoord = CLLocationCoordinate2D.init(latitude: -90, longitude: 180)

    var bottomRightCoord = CLLocationCoordinate2D.init(latitude: 90, longitude: -180)

    for i in 0..<myMapView.annotations.count
    {
        let annotation = myMapView.annotations[i]

        topLeftCoord.longitude = fmin(topLeftCoord.longitude, annotation.coordinate.longitude);
        topLeftCoord.latitude = fmax(topLeftCoord.latitude, annotation.coordinate.latitude);
        bottomRightCoord.longitude = fmax(bottomRightCoord.longitude, annotation.coordinate.longitude);
        bottomRightCoord.latitude = fmin(bottomRightCoord.latitude, annotation.coordinate.latitude);
    }

    let resd = CLLocationCoordinate2D.init(latitude: topLeftCoord.latitude - (topLeftCoord.latitude - bottomRightCoord.latitude) * 0.5, longitude: topLeftCoord.longitude + (bottomRightCoord.longitude - topLeftCoord.longitude) * 0.5)

    let span = MKCoordinateSpan.init(latitudeDelta: fabs(topLeftCoord.latitude - bottomRightCoord.latitude) * 1.3, longitudeDelta: fabs(bottomRightCoord.longitude - topLeftCoord.longitude) * 1.3)       

    var region = MKCoordinateRegion.init(center: resd, span: span);

    region = aMapView.regionThatFits(region)

    aMapView.setRegion(region, animated: true)

}
