Edelweiss Air to resume services connecting Zurich with Puerto Plata
The Swiss airline Edelweiss announced the restart of operations of its Zurich, Puerto Plata route, from July 2nd, making a weekly flight every Friday.
This flight expanded the existing tourist offer of Edelweiss in the Caribbean, which takes passengers to Cancun in Mexico; Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic; Havana in Cuba; Montego Bay in Jamaica and in Central America in San José in Costa Rica, a region that has proven to be of great interest to European tourists.
Edelweiss will fly directly from Zurich to Puerto Plata every Friday starting July 2, 2021, landing at 5:30 pm at the Gregorio Luperón International Airport.
Puerto Plata is considered the vacation paradise on the north coast of the Dominican Republic, preferred by both young people and European families, who enjoy the sun, water sports, and nature in the area.
The nearby beaches of Sosúa and Cabarete not only allow you to enjoy sun and beach vacations but are also a magnet for those who want to dive, kitesurf and windsurf. Puerto Plata is also the ideal starting point for excursions to the impressive nature of the surroundings.
“At this time, we have noticed that more and more people want to enjoy a vacation by the sea. We are pleased to be able to offer our passengers another safe vacation destination, just as the summer vacation begins”, said Patrick Heymann, Director Edelweiss commercial.
The safety and well-being of tourists and local employees are an absolute priority for the Dominican Republic.
Petra Cruz, European director of the Dominican Republic Tourism Board, expressed that the Dominican Republic is successfully facing the COVID 19 situation, thanks to its quick response and that it has certified protocols.
This is Switzerland’s leading leisure travel airline and flies to the most beautiful destinations in the world. The airline guarantees a pleasant and carefree trip to various vacation destinations and ensures the safety and well-being of its passengers with commitment and cordiality.
