Fleet and Business Areas

Chair Airlines operates a fleet of three Airbus A319 aircraft with 150 economy class seats each at Zurich Airport. The average age of the aircraft is ten years.

As a charter airlineā€š we offer our passengers flight connections for beach holidays in warm-water destinations and short city trips. We also build bridgesā€š connecting passengers living in Switzerland with their homeland. Chair Airlines is a reliable partner for special flights and ad-hoc charter flightsā€š for example for sports clubsā€š special eventsā€š and companies.

Trusting partnerships with tour operators and travel agencies form the basis of our business concept. Furthermoreā€š our close collaboration with tourist information offices enables us to move with the times and recognize travelers’ needs.
