NEW! Two weekly non-stop flights to Jerez de la Frontera
Jerez de la Frontera – flights to Andalusia every Wednesday and Saturday
From April 2008, Helvetic Airways will offer two weekly non-stop flights from Zurich to Jerez in Andalusia. Jerez is located just a few kilometres from the Spanish Atlantic coast and is an ideal starting point for journeys to the Costa de la Luz and for tours in Andalusia. Seville is only about an hour away by car.
Non-stop to Sicily – five times a week
Helvetic Airways will be operating non-stop flights to Sicilian destinations Catania on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays and Palermo on Mondays and Fridays. These two Sicilian cities can be ideally combined, meaning that Sicily can be reached non-stop from Zurich practically every day.
Lamezia Terme – flights to Calabria every Monday, Friday and Sunday
The Monday flight to Lamezia Terme can now also be booked, meaning that there will be non-stop flights to Lamezia Terme from Zurich on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays. Ideal for a weekend in the Southern Italian sunshine!
Brindisi – flights to Apulia every Monday, Thursday and Sunday
Effective immediately, the third weekly flight to Brindisi on Sundays is also on offer. Apulia can thus be reached non-stop on Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays.
