London City Airport reconnects to Zurich with Swiss flights

Thursday, May 13, 2021

London City Airport has recently welcomed the restoration of connections to Zurich (ZRH), with Swiss resuming flights to Switzerland’s largest city. The carrier will initially operate two rotations per week. The schedule will increase in line with the anticipated surges in demand for leisure and business travel as travel restrictions are relaxed in the UK and Europe this summer.

As the vaccination programme continues and international travel restrictions are relaxed further in the coming weeks, it is expected that more passengers will return to flying from London to destinations across Europe. Swiss will gradually scale up their routes and schedules from London City ahead of the autumn as leisure and business traffic picks up. The Swiss national carrier also expects to restore its route from LCY to Geneva (GVA) in August.

Anne Doyere, Head of Aviation, London City Airport said in a statement that authorities are delighted to see that Swiss has returned to the airport to restore an important business and leisure connection between London City and Zurich. She mentioned that Zurich is a key centre for international business, finance and tourism, so it is a positive news for passengers who can once again enjoy safe and speedy journeys to Zurich direct from the heart of London.
