New Swiss airline FlyBair partners with Helvetic
A partially crowdfunded Swiss airline named “FlyBair”, to be headquartered in Switzerland’s capital Bern, says that it has partnered with regional carrier Helvetic Airways ahead of beginning service to European vacation destinations from May 2020. FlyBair made headlines last November when it launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for a carrier that would connect the Swiss capital to several holiday destinations in Spain, Italy and Greece during the peak summer travel season. No commercial airlines serve the airport in the Swiss capital. Passengers must travel to the airports at Geneva, 93mi to the southwest, or Zurich, 75mi to the northeast, in order to reach any other destination by air. All FlyBair flights will be carried out by a Helvetic Airways’ Embraer E190 aircraft, the new airline says. <br/>
