“The response we have already seen on social media shows the kind of interest people have in the area and regular, scheduled flights into Sion are long overdue.

“Every winter sports enthusiast knows about the sheer quality of ski resorts in the Valais region and we are proud to be able to help our customers reach those resorts faster than any other available option.”
