With Edelweiss into the autumn and winter vacations
This autumn and winter, Edelweiss will again fly to popular beach holiday classics in the Caribbean and Indian Ocean. Also Egypt and Turkey as well as other vacation destinations in the Mediterranean area are in the program. Edelweiss now also flies directly from Zurich to Muscat in Oman.
Right on time for the autumn vacations, Edelweiss will once again be serving the seaside holiday classic on the Maldives from Zurich. There are also weekly connections to the Seychelles, Cancún and Punta Cana.
In the short and medium-haul segment, Egypt is already particularly popular; especially the diving paradises of Marsa Alam and Hurghada; and the new destination of Sharm El Sheikh. The Greek Islands, Italy and Kosovo are also very well booked for the coming vacations.
Additional destinations are planned for the winter flight schedule, both long-haul and short- and medium-haul. The safety and health of the guests and crews are the top priority for Edelweiss. For this reason, Edelweiss constantly monitors the current situation and adapts the route network to suit the situation. Appropriate information is communicated on flyedelweiss.com.
New destination: Muscat in Oman
As soon as the current situation allows, but from November 2020 at the earliest, Edelweiss will offer a direct flight to Muscat in Oman as a special highlight. Oman is particularly popular with the Swiss because of its cultural diversity and its beautiful beaches. Furthermore, Muscat is the perfect starting point for a round trip in Oman.
Further flexible and free rebooking possibilities
The Covid-19 regulations of the individual countries as well as of Switzerland are different from each other and sometimes change at very short notice. To ensure that you can still plan your trip without worries, Edelweiss continues to guarantee flexible and free rebooking options.
