Helvetic Airways is starting the summer season with new flight destinations
However, there will be no more flights to Naples, which will be removed from the flight schedule at the end of April 2007.
16 flight destinations in 7 countries
Since it started offering flights in November 2003, more than 1.4 million passengers have put their trust in Helvetic Airways. The Swiss airline, which has 130 employees, operates four 100-seat Fokker 100 jets on its route network. In the summer flight schedule for 2007, Helvetic Airways will fly non-stop to 16 destinations in 7 countries. The airline has a strong focus on Italy, Spain and Morocco. In cooperation with various tour operators, there are also flights to a number of additional destinations in charter traffic. Helvetic Airways flies to several travel destinations in every region. This enables passengers to combine the individual destinations with each other, which is ideal for spending a long weekend or short holiday with family and friends.
