Helvetic Airways continues to grow

Helvetic Airways is expanding the fast growing areas of charter and special charter flights. As the current fleet of six Fokker 100s is already used to capacity, the airline will also be operating an Airbus A319 from April 2013. This type of aircraft will cover the 130 - 140 seat market. In addition, it will allow us to fly to destinations that lie beyond the range of the Fokker 100.

We will be recruiting 25 new airline staff in the course of the fleet expansion, raising the number of Helvetic Airways staff to over 225.

In summer 2013, our Airbus A319 will fly to the following destinations for Kuoni:

From Bern: Heraklion From Geneva: Heraklion
Kos Kos
Rhodes Rhodes
Fuerteventura/Arrecife
Larnaca
Las Palmas/Tenerife
Hurghada/Sharm el-Sheikh


Swiss regional airline Helvetic Airways provides a range of short- and medium-haul air services from various Swiss airports. The carrier deploys its Embraer E190-E2, E195-E2 and E190-E1 aircraft on scheduled, charter and wet-lease flights. At least six Helvetic Airways Embraer E190-E2s and E195-E2s are being operated in winter 2023/24 and summer 2024 on behalf of Swiss International Air Lines in summer 2023 under a long-term wet-lease agreement.

The Helvetic Airways workforce numbers over 510 employees. The company also has its own maintenance hangar and operation at Zurich Airport, which is further home to its corporate head office. The airline offers innovative part-time employment models to its cockpit and cabin personnel. For its cabin attendants these include ‘Ski&Fly’, ‘Fly&Study’ and the fully flexible ‘Fly your way’ model. Details of current vacancies at Helvetic will be found at career.helvetic.com.

Helvetic Airways has been working closely with Horizon Swiss Flight Academy AG (www.horizon-sfa.ch), which is based in Kloten, Switzerland, since 2008. Both companies are part of the Helvetic Airways Group, which is domiciled in Freienbach, Switzerland.
