Summer flight schedule 2024: Edelweiss with more flights on short and medium-haul routes

Edelweiss is optimizing its short- and medium-haul network and, in some cases, significantly increasing the number of flights. Edelweiss is also offering an even more attractive flight schedule on weekends and during the spring holidays. The Canary Islands, for example, will benefit from more flights, particularly in spring and autumn. Gran Canaria will now be served up to eleven times a week, Tenerife will have up to ten weekly flights, and Fuerteventura will have up to five. Services to Lanzarote will remain stable with three weekly flights, and La Palma will once again offer non-stop flights in the spring.

Services to popular city destinations on the Spanish mainland will also be expanded, enabling attractive weekend stays: Seville will be served with up to six weekly flights, Bilbao with up to five, and Santiago de Compostela with three. Flights to Menorca in the Balearic Islands will be increased to four to five weekly, and Palma de Mallorca and Ibiza will each be served up to nine times weekly.

Significantly more flights to the north
Those who prefer northern climes can look forward to up to ten weekly flights to Edinburgh, Scotland; the frequency to Newquay, Cornwall, will double to two weekly flights. The number of weekly flights to Keflavík will increase to five, and Akureyri will now be served continuously from June to August. Norway is also among the most popular destinations. As previously announced, Edelweiss will now fly once a week to Evenes in the Lofoten Islands starting in June. The number of weekly flights to Bergen will remain at two, and the number of flights to Tromsø will increase from two to three per week.

Greece continues to see very high demand
Greece will experience the most significant expansion in the 2024 summer flight schedule. There will be up to 17 new flights per week to Heraklion on Crete. That's five more frequencies than before. In addition, there will be three weekly connections to Chania instead of two. Corfu will be increased from four to five flights, and Zakynthos from three to four. Daily flights to Kos and Rhodes will finally be added to the schedule, and Kalamata will be expanded by one frequency to three in the spring. The number of flights to Skiathos and Preveza/Lefkada will be increased.

North Africa with strong expansion
Services to Morocco are being significantly expanded: For the first time, Agadir will be served non-stop up to two times a week, and Marrakech up to five times a week. In the spring, additional flights will be offered to Djerba in Tunisia, now a total of three per week. Egyptian destinations are also being expanded: Sharm El Sheik and Marsa Alam will now be served up to four times a week, Hurghada up to 16 times, and Luxor will continue to be served once a week in the spring.

Further destinations with expanded offerings
With up to nine weekly flights to Antalya, three to Bodrum, and one to Dalaman, Edelweiss also offers a comprehensive flight program to destinations in Turkey. Cyprus is looking forward to up to two new daily flights to Larnaca.

The Italian destinations Bari with five new flights, Catania with up to eight, Lamezia Terme and Olbia with up to six, and Cagliari with up to five weekly flights also offer an attractive offer.
