Edelweiss Turns 30 Serving New Routes

Edelweiss Turns 30 Serving New Routes
Who says turning 30 has to be a crisis? Edelweiss Air is here to prove that 30 is the new 20—complete with shiny new Airbus A350s, exotic new destinations, and over 350 fresh job openings. Forget the quiet dinner party; this is a mile-high birthday bash, and everyone’s invited!

Introducing the A350s: Trading Vintage for Eco-Chic
Edelweiss is saying Auf Wiedersehen to its trusty but tired Airbus A340s and rolling out six sparkling, eco-friendly Airbus A350s. First destination? Sunny Tenerife—because even planes deserve a warm-up lap in paradise before they start racking up those long-haul miles. It’s a fleet glow-up we can all get behind!
Starting April 1 (no joke), Zurich to Las Vegas gets the honor of being the A350’s maiden long-haul voyage. From July, the second A350 will be jetting daily between Zurich and Vancouver. Swiss precision, now with a side of maple syrup.
Jobs, Jobs, Jobs!
Not only is Edelweiss getting fancy new planes, but it’s also adding over 300 cabin crew and 40 cockpit crew to the mix. So, if your dream is to serve fondue at cruising altitude, now’s your chance.
New Destinations: Something for Everyone
Edelweiss isn’t just adding planes; it’s adding places. Whether you’re after maple leaves or mild Mediterranean vibes, they’ve got you covered:
- Long-haul: Halifax and Seattle. (Because who doesn’t want a mix of maritime charm and coffee-fueled techies?)
- Short/Medium-haul: Bristol (UK), Calvi (France), Tbilisi (Georgia), Terceira (Portugal), and Zadar (Croatia). Perfect for everything from sipping cider to exploring Croatia’s stunning coastline.
The Future of Swiss Leisure Travel
With all these upgrades, Edelweiss is flexing its muscles as Switzerland’s go-to leisure airline. They’re doubling down on sustainability, comfort, and more travel options—because nothing says "Swiss efficiency" like making sure your beach holiday starts with a smooth, eco-friendly flight.
Ready to Celebrate?
So, whether you’re heading to Vancouver for poutine or Zadar for sun-soaked islands, Edelweiss has a seat for you.

Cheers to 30 years, Edelweiss—keep climbing high (and please save us a window seat)!
