Partnership between Swiss and Helvetic Airways to be extended
The ACMI cooperation between Swiss International Air Lines and Helvetic Airways, in existence since 2006, is to be extended: As of the 2013/2014 winter flight schedule, an additional Helvetic Airways Fokker 100 (including crew) will be in operation for Swiss.
The renewed, long-term cooperation contract regulates the use of a total of 4 Fokker 100s and is effective until spring 2017.
Helvetic Airways and its employees are very proud to know that Swiss values the dedication and the Swiss quality of Helvetic Airways and is honouring it with a long-term cooperation.
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. Up to 15 Helvetic Airways aircraft are being operated on behalf of Swiss International Air Lines under a long-term wet-lease agreement.
The Helvetic Airways workforce numbers over 560 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.
