SWISS has strengthened its partnership with the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). In light of the current circumstances and the reduced flight service between Geneva and Zurich Airport, SWISS has introduced additional airtrain connections on this route. By doing so, SWISS ensures that guests from Western Switzerland continue to benefit from optimal connections to SWISS’s extensive route network from Zurich.
Starting on 18 August 2020, SWISS will offer guests from Western Switzerland up to ten daily airtrain connections between Geneva Cornavin SBB train station and Zurich Airport as part of their ticket.
Airtrain connections will be issued with a SWISS flight number and are also valid for journeys starting from Geneva Airport.
This gives guests the option to either fly with SWISS to Zurich or take advantage of one of several connections by train, thus providing them with even more flexibility and choice when planning their itinerary. And while the view above Lac Leman from inside an aircraft remains unrivalled, the train journey along one of Switzerland’s most scenic routes will prove nearly as memorable. SWISS First and SWISS Business passengers with an airtrain connection from Geneva to Zurich Airport (and vice versa) can look forward to a comfortable and convenient train connection and will be seated in 1st Class. Following their arrival in Zurich, premium passengers continue to benefit from priority services such as expedited check-in and fast-track security lanes.
Besides Basel and Lugano, Geneva Cornavin – Zurich Airport marks the third airtrain route that SWISS and the Swiss Federal Railways have launched and is a reflection of their commitment to further expand intermodal forms of transportation.
The airtrain connection between Geneva Cornavin station and Zurich Airport can be booked starting 18 August on swiss.com and through travel agencies. The airtrain can also be booked for SWISS codeshare flights that are operated by Edelweiss.
