I've always been very supprised that Swiss stopped flying to Jersey and Guernsey with the Saab 2000 as the pax loads were generally very good. Always lot's of business class passengers in expensive suits and briefcases. Surely they must have paid a lot for their ticket, one wonders?
In hindsight it was all part of the political move (inspired by the ex-Swissair maffia) to label all remaining ex-Crossair routes as expensive and unprofitable in the new airline called S.w.i.s.s. (So What It's Still Swissair) and provide the necesary excuse to cut in the ex-Crossair network.
Let's hope someone else will have the common sence to link Zurich with Jersey and Guernsey. What about FlyBE and their Q400's?
One more nail into the coffin of S.w.i.s.s.
