SWISS to launch Nice Geneva service

SWISS airlines is further expanding its services from Geneva, adding Nice to the network and increasing frequencies to Madrid, Moscow and London (City) Airport.
Nice will join the SWISS Geneva-based network on 10 February 2012. The new flights will be operated using Airbus A319 equipment. Service will initially consist of two daily flights, rising to a thrice-daily operation in the 2012 summer schedules. SWISS will also be adding a third daily frequency to its Geneva-Madrid route from 10 February 2012. The new operations will see a tenth SWISS aircraft stationed in Geneva.

In the nearer future, SWISS will be adding a second daily flight to its Geneva-Moscow route from 16 December. And service between Geneva and London (City) will be raised from four to five daily flights with the start of the 2011/12 winter schedules on 31 October. Services on the current Geneva-Budapest route will be withdrawn from the same date, though travellers from Geneva will still be able to reach Hungary’s capital with a choice of three connections a day via SWISS’s Zurich hub.
