Zurich flights increased from London City

Swiss has added an early morning flight from London City to Zurich. The 7am departure starts on April 10 with an additional 8pm return, giving the airline flights between the two financial centres at roughly two-hour intervals.

Swiss also now offer daily UK connections to and from Tokyo via Zurich after increasing its weekly frequencies from six to seven in February.

From mid-July, the carrier will also provide daily flights to Los Angeles, Santiago (Chile) and Johannesburg via Zurich. All these destinations were previously served six times a week. Swiss' UK and Ireland marketing manager, Iwan Kip, said: "The UK and Ireland is an extremely important market for Swiss, especially given the significance of the connection between the financial hubs of London and Zurich.'
