About this airline
Upside
Some interesting destinations are served out of Zurich and Geneva. Flights are generally on time.
Downside
Not really a low-cost airline.
About
Swiss carrier Helvetic's fares only traipse into budget territory on occasion. The airline flies from Zurich to destinations in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Macedonia, Hungary, and Tunisia; one route (between Geneva and Monastir) supplements the route map. Like Flybaboo, another Swiss "budget" airline, Helvetic is a small airline with a limited route map that isn't by rights a low-cost carrier. We include it here because some of its fares sometimes dip into low-cost territory.
