Summer holiday travels on SWISS

With progress on the COVID-19 vaccination front and easings of international travel restrictions, SWISS has seen a recent rise in bookings for the coming summer season, and is confident that its range of flights on offer will be well received by the market. In June and July SWISS will newly fly or resume services to 49 destinations from Zurich and Geneva; and in high summer the company will operate a total of 125 routes, 85 from Zurich and 40 from Geneva, with a particular focus on leisure and visiting-friends-and-relatives travellers. In structural terms, though, this overall capacity is still substantially below the volumes offered before the present pandemic, and even in high summer will only rise to some 50 to 55 per cent of its 2019 levels. SWISS continues to offer its customers full rebooking flexibility. The company is also lobbying strongly for the adoption of internationally recognized digital health certificates that will help bring simplicity and reliability to the travel experience.
