The Swiss leisure airline Edelweiss celebrated its inaugural flight to Colombia this Wednesday morning.

Francisco Javier Echeverri Lara, Ambassador of the Republic of Colombia to Switzerland, and Bernd Bauer, CEO of Edelweiss, joined the crew in cutting the ribbon. Following the ceremony, the Edelweiss Airbus A340 took off for Colombia.
Edelweiss will now fly nonstop from Zurich to Bogotá, then on to Cartagena, and then nonstop to Zurich again every Wednesday and Sunday until the end of May.
