Swiss holiday regions take off

"Braunwald" and "Schatzalp" are now flying through lofty heights to the world's most beautiful destinations. Leading leisure airline Edelweiss has christened two of its aircraft. Since this morning, they bear the names of Swiss holiday regions.

Two names are better than one – that's what leading holiday airline Edelweiss thought, and today, February 9, it named two of its aircraft after the Swiss holiday regions of Braunwald and Schatzalp. With this, the airline continues its naming concept "Where Edelweiss is at home."

Tradition meets adventure
Both Braunwald and Schatzalp are home to the queen of alpine flowers. The latter boasts the world's largest collection of the plant in its botanical garden. "That's why we're particularly pleased to be working with Edelweiss," says Mark Linder, director of the Schatzalp Hotel. "By flying in, we're one more Edelweiss richer." Fridolin Hösli, managing director of Braunwald-Klausenpass Tourismus AG, also welcomes the new connection: "Edelweiss and Braunwald represent Switzerland's rich traditions and a thirst for adventure."

Schatzalp and Braunwald had already prepared the traditional part: women in traditional costume and Trychler entertained with plenty of Swissness during the baptism. The adventures can now be experienced in the exciting holiday regions that Braunwald and Schatzalp will now serve. After all, Edelweiss is at home all over the world.
