Edelweiss, the Swiss holiday airline, celebrated with a beautiful cake at the departure gate and later on the traditional ribbon cutting their first flight to Namibia. From now on they will fly nonstop from Zurich to the capital Windhoek -using their new Airbus A350. 
Namibia thrills with endless desert landscapes, fascinating safari experiences and a starlit sky that is among the most impressive in the world. Whether the red dunes of Sossusvlei, the expanses of the Namib Desert or the impressive wildlife of Etosha National Park – here adventures and unforgettable moments await behind every horizon line.
Until the end of October Edelweiss will be taking you straight to the heart of South Africa, up to three times a week.
ATCNews wishes happy landings to passengers and crews, always!
