About Moov Airways

Moov Airways is a startup airline, set to operate long-haul flights out of Basel airport in Switzerland. Moov Airways will operate as a low-cost carrier, and has ambitious targets to operate direct, non-stop services to North American destinations from its main hub in Basel, as well as bases in other European destinations.

Moov Airways is the rebranded name of Swiss Skies, which was initially launched in 2018. However, after a year, in 2018 the startup was permanently stalled after failing to generate enough investment. What changed for Swiss Skies was the Coronavirus outbreak, enabling the airline to take advantage of the unforeseen availability of routes, airport slots, staff, and all other aspects of supply and distribution.

A revised launch date for Moov Airways has not been specified, and more information, including the onboard experience and ticket fares, has yet to be announced.

Destinations

The airline hopes to operate long-haul flights to eastern areas of the United States (including New York), as well as Canada, South America, the Caribbean, the Middle East and, possibly, India. Moov Airways will operate flights from its primary base at Basel, as well as from other European destinations.
