A twice daily service from London City Airport to Geneva starts this weekend with connections to Venice and Florence.
Geneva-based airline Baboo starts the flights on Sunday (October 25) using 74-seat Q400 aircraft, with fares starting at £51 one way including taxes.
Airport chief executive Richard Gooding said: “The timing of the departures are perfectly scheduled for London City’s passengers to maximise their day in Geneva.
“The on-board product of the airline is excellent and we know it will be well-received by our passengers who demand a high level of service.”
He added: “Take out the lengthy surface travel time to other airports, long security procedures and the even longer walk to the gates, Baboo will get passengers to Venice or Florence faster than any other carrier out of London when flying from London City Airport.”
The airline’s CEO Jacques Bankir said: “These flights also reinforce our partnerships and will be part of the near 600 weekly flight system offered by Cityjet, the London City specialist airlines of Air France-KLM.”
