The USA has always been the most popular overseas travel destination for the Swiss. This year, after the weak Corona years, demand has boomed again.

This has led Switzerland to add Washington DC and Toronto in Canada to its flight schedule from summer 2024. Its sibling Edelweiss Air will increase flights to Tampa, Florida, as well as Canadian destinations Vancouver and Calgary in summer 2024.

Atlanta is back

American rival Delta is not sitting idle. Starting from June 1, a seasonal uninterrupted connection will be provided between Zurich and Atlanta.

We will go to the metropolis of Georgia four times a week. Hartsfield-Jackson Airport is one of the busiest airports in the world and has the most connections in North America. This will enable 200 connecting flights from Zurich.

A 216-seat Boeing 767 is used on this route.

No price relaxation yet

This significantly expands the flight range to North America. The overall good thing in terms of prices: competition stimulates the market!

But right now we are still far from the low prices of previous years. The new Atlanta flight is currently on sale for 1,200 francs on the Delta website.

Important business goal

The Zurich-Atlanta route had been on Delta’s flight schedule for years, but was gradually abandoned in 2014 in favor of the more lucrative New York route, which Delta now offers from Zurich and Geneva.

Atlanta is also interesting for business travelers. The city is home to major companies such as Coca-Cola, Home Depot, NCR and CNN.
