Nordic Aviation Capital (NAC) has confirmed that it has delivered one Embraer E190, MSN 19000265, to Helvetic Airways on lease.
Helvetic Airways is a Swiss airline based at Zurich Airport. Established in 2003, the entirely Swiss airline offers European destinations in the short and medium-haul sectors and operates from Zurich and Bern-Belp airports.
Helvetic Airways AG currently operates a fleet of seven Embraer E190-E1 and five Fokker 100 aircraft. The latter will be withdrawn in the first half of 2019 and replaced with a further four Embraer E190-E1 aircraft. Additionally, new Embraer E190-E2 aircraft will enter into service from September 2019 onwards. Up to eight of the company’s Embraer E190s will be operated in 2019 on behalf of Swiss International Air Lines under a long-term ACMI lease agreement. The remaining aircraft in the Helvetic Airways fleet are operated under other ACMI leases or perform the company’s own scheduled and charter flights.
