Edelweiss is probably better known as a charter operator and having bagged many awards over the years so it goes without saying that they are a quality airline. What else would you expect from the Swiss !! The scheduled side of Edelweiss has now joined the party having won the prestigious Gold Star Award for Short Haul Flights in 2007. The airlines motto is "Flying the Swiss Way" and they stake their reputation on reliability, punctuality, friendly and attentive employees and premium service in every respect.
