Edelweiss celebrated its maiden flight to Amman and Aqaba in Jordan this Thursday. Edelweiss marked this special occasion with the traditional ribbon-cutting ceremony. Patrick Heymann, Chief Commercial Officer of Edelweiss, Rolf Hancock, Vice President of Aviation Development at Zurich Airport, and Michael Schmidli, Operations Manager at Swissport, joined the crew in cutting the ribbon. Patrick Heymann commented: "I'm delighted that we've added Jordan to our flight schedule. Jordan is a unique holiday destination and an ideal destination if you're looking for historic sites like the rock city of Petra, tranquil natural beauty, and attractive diving spots."
The Airbus A320 took off on time for its maiden flight. Until the end of June and again from autumn onwards, Edelweiss will fly to Amman and then on to Aqaba every Thursday and Sunday. Edelweiss flies to 68 short- and medium-haul destinations and 21 long-haul destinations.
