It was confirmed that the long haul opration will be done by the Volare Group and Swissair togather with Crossair will concentrate on the european routes.
Swissair will stay a swiss company with the good and very well known service but it may be possible that the headquater of SairGroup will move to Thiene, to the Volare Group headquater, by end of the year
