New destination for passengers flying from Sion Airport

November 14, 2017 by Rachel Beacher 2 Comments

Swiss International Air Lines will offer travellers the option to fly from Sion to Portugal this winter. The company is testing the route with two round-trip journeys to Porto, Portugal’s second largest city, on 23 December and 6 January.

Swiss did a similar thing last winter, with two taster flights to London Heathrow. This year, it will be expanding its services to the UK and has scheduled eight return journeys between Heathrow and Sion. For all these flights to and from Sion, the company will lease planes and crew from Helvetic Airways.

The journey from Sion to Porto takes around 2 hours and 20 minutes. Tickets are available to book now from Swiss International Air Lines.
