SWISS and Helvetic Airways are to extend and deepen their proven and long-standing partnership for a further five years. Helvetic Airways will operate up to 15 aircraft throughout the SWISS European network on SWISS’s behalf under the continued wet-lease agreement. 

Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) and Helvetic Airways are to extend their long-standing partnership for a further five years. Under the wet-lease agreement between the two airlines, Swiss regional carrier Helvetic operates up to 15 advanced and carbon-efficient Embraer E190-E2 and E195-E2 aircraft and their predecessor E190s and E195s on the SWISS European route network on SWISS’s behalf. All these aircraft are leased-in together with their crews.

“Helvetic Airways fully and consistently meets all our high safety standards and all our premium aspirations, and is well liked by our customers” explains SWISS Chief Commercial Officer Heike Birlenbach. “I’m delighted that we can now extend our successful partnership. Our collaboration not only enables us to cover our operating peaks: with Helvetic’s smaller aircraft, we can also serve destinations for which our own SWISS aircraft would be too big.”

“We are proud that the partnership which SWISS and Helvetic Airways have cultivated since 2007 will now be further extended and expanded,” adds Helvetic Airways CEO Tobias Pogorevc. “This confirms to us that we consistently meet SWISS’s high quality and reliability standards, and that our advanced regional twinjets ideally supplement the SWISS aircraft fleet.”

Helvetic Airways will operate up to nine aircraft on SWISS’s behalf in the coming winter timetable period, while up to 15 Helvetic aircraft are expected to be in service on SWISS routes in the busier 2025 summer schedules.
