Now Switzerland goes one step further. Soon there will be a first flight that leaves no choice but can only be booked with emissions offset: a domestic flight from Zurich to Geneva; The only one Switzerland has in its range. According to insider information, Swiss CEO Dieter Vranckx forced this decision against internal resistance.
Passengers from French-speaking Switzerland like to use this flight as a feed for long-haul flights to Switzerland departing from Zurich. Swiss serves only a few long-distance destinations directly from Geneva. And SBB connects both airports in just over three hours without changing trains – so there is an alternative. If you still want to fly: The price increase should stay within the limits. The full compensation for the return flight from Zurich to Geneva is currently 78.50 francs, the midrange is less than 25 francs.
