Air Berlin - German (and UK) Low Cost Airline The German low cost behemoth flies from its Swiss hub at Zurich to Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Hannover and Düsseldorf in Germany as well as to destinations in Spain, Portugal, Italy and the Balearic Islands. The airline also connects Zurich to Vienna, Budapest and Warsaw in Central Europe and to London Stansted and Manchester in the UK.
Atlas Blue - Moroccan Low Cost Airline Operates no-frills flights to Marrakech in Morocco. See entry at Morocco
bmi baby - UK Low Cost Airline Straightforward, medium priced, low cost flights from Geneva to Birmingham, Cardiff, Nottingham East Midlands and Teesside airports in the UK. If bmi baby's promotional 25% discount applies, flights are available for as little as 83.12 Swiss Francs - about £37 or €54 - one-way, including taxes.
Cimber Air - Danish Low Cost Airline A Danish airline which operates flights between Basel and Copenhagen in Denmark for a cheapest tax-inclusive fare of 883 Danish Kroner, equivalent to 180 Swiss Francs or €119. Not the cheapest low cost airline around, but worth a glance if all the best Maersk Air deals have gone. Cimber Air's user-friendly booking engine will help you locate the lowest available fares quickly and easily.
Discovery - Czech Low Cost Airline A relatively little-known Czech airline which operates low fare routes from Geneva and Sion to Prague on a yield management basis for a cheapest one-way price of €66 including taxes - about 102 Swiss Francs or 2081 Czech Koruna. That's more expensive than flying to Prague with Smart Wings but still cheaper than either helvetic or fly baboo.
easyJet - European Low Cost Airline Europe's largest no-frills airline provides low cost connections from Zurich to London Luton, from Basel to Luton, Stansted, Liverpool and Berlin Schönefeld in Germany and from Geneva to a large number of destinations across Europe including Paris, Berlin, Rome, Budapest, Madrid, Barcelona and Amsterdam.
FlyBaboo.com - Swiss Low Cost Airline serves Czech Republic, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland. Operates flights from its hub at Geneva to the Swiss town of Lugano, to Venice and Florence in Italy, Valencia in Spain and to Prague in the Czech Republic. Fly Baboo has a very stylish image, but for all that it can often compete on price with Switzerland's other principal budget operator, helvetic.
germanwings - German Low Cost Airline Flies from Zurich to Cologne-Bonn airport on the Rhineland in western Germany. germanwings regularly holds Crazy Night and Crazy Weekend promotions during which hundreds of extra one-way flights are sold at very low fares. However, even outside promotional periods, if you can find the cheapest Flight 4U tariff - 1 Swiss Franc before taxes - you can fly one-way from Zurich for the staggeringly low price of 29 Swiss Francs - just under €19.
helvetic - Swiss Low Cost Airline Another fixed price airline which operates out of Zurich. Even if you book at the last minute, helvetic will fly you from Zurich to destinations including London Gatwick, Prague, Barcelona, Rome, Madrid and Vienna for €132 including taxes. The Swiss budget carrier has also just introduced flights to two new Macedonian destinations, Skopje and Ohrid, for a fixed one-way price of €231 including taxes, though this seems like less of a bargain.
InterSky - Austrian Low Cost Airline Though an Austrian low fare airline, InterSky runs a couple of routes from Switzerland: from Bern to Berlin Tempelhof and Vienna. Fares start at 94 Swiss Francs including taxes to both the German and Austrian capitals.
Maersk Air - Danish Low Cost Airline
Flies low cost routes from both Geneva and Zurich to Copenhagen in Denmark. Fares start at around 95 Swiss Francs, 455 Danish Kroner or €62 including taxes.
Maersk Air was a Danish low-fare airline, based in Copenhagen, which was part of the A.P. Moller-Maersk Group. It operated from 1969 to 2005, when it was bought by Icelandic investment group Fons Eignarhaldsfélag and then merged with their other Danish acquisition the same year, Sterling European Airlines.
The new company changed name to Sterling Airlines and one month later it was sold to the Icelandic FL Group, which owns Icelandair as well as 16.8% of Europe's largest low-fare airline, easyJet. A merger of easyJet and Sterling is/was a possibility. See http://www.sterling.dk/flight . UK-Denmark for under £40 excl.
Sky Europe - Central European Low Cost Airline Operates connections from Zurich to Bratislava and Kosice in Slovakia. Low cost flights to the Slovakian capital start at around 84 Swiss Francs. For an additional 60 Swiss Francs you can take advantage of Sky Europe's Skylink service from Bratislava on to Kosice in eastern Slovakia.
Smart Wings - Czech Low Cost Airline Provides a simple low cost service from Zurich to Prague for which the cheapest one-way flights are available for 88 Swiss Francs or 1800 Czech Koruna including taxes - about €57. The cheapest way to fly to Prague from Switzerland without exception.
Virgin Express - Belgian Low Cost Airline Branson's low cost airline flies direct from Geneva to Brussels Zaventem International for a cheapest one-way fare of 62 Swiss Francs including taxes which equates to €41. As with most low cost airlines, booking as far ahead as possible is the best way to guarantee finding the cheapest flights.
