| Summering in Switzerland just got easier with the new seasonal nonstop Edelweiss Air service to Zurich from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA). Yesterday, SEA welcomed the new route and airline partner with a ribbon cutting and gate celebration as it kicked off the airport’s busiest travel season. The twice-weekly service makes Seattle the airline’s fourth destination in the U.S.
“We want to extend a very warm welcome to our newest airline partner, Edelweiss Air,”said Port of Seattle Commissioner Hamdi Mohamed. “Travelers in our region are thrilled to have a direct connection to the world-class city of Zurich and cultural hub of Switzerland. Zurich’s scenic backdrop and proximity to nature and water will speak to Pacific Northwesterners, and we’re just as excited to welcome Swiss travelers here. This partnership supports good local jobs and contributes to a strong regional economy, while SEA continues to prioritize safety in meeting demand for global connectivity.” |
