Helvetic expects strong demand

Swiss uses all 16 aircraft from Helvetic in winter. The airline itself expects strong demand in the summer of 2023 - and will use its largest aircraft in Zurich.

Non-stop to Cyprus, Crete and Hurghada: Helvetic is bringing the start of the 2023 summer season forward to the beginning of April. The airline will offer its own program from Zurich and Bern. "Due to the expected high demand, Helvetic Airways is using its larger Embraer E195-E2 aircraft with 134 seats on the routes from Zurich," the airline said. In the current winter season, Helvetic has placed its entire fleet of 16 aircraft with Swiss. The Swiss Lufthansa subsidiary has promised Helvetic a wet lease of at least six aircraft in a new cooperation agreement, according to the online portal Aero.
