The airline Swiss flew several planes to Amman in Jordan on Sunday. Swiss airplane fans are very excited: What does the Swiss caravan to Amman mean, which can be seen on tracking sites like Flightradar24?
–
A Swiss spokeswoman explains across from “srf.ch »: “Today we are transferring five A320 aircraft and two A330 aircraft to Amman in the so-called” Storage “. The storage of aircraft is particularly recommended in situations in which the aircraft are no longer required for operational use for more than three months. »

An eighth aircraft will fly the aircraft crews back to Zurich in the afternoon, according to the spokeswoman.
–
Almost the entire fleet stands still
Swiss had to shut down almost the entire fleet due to the corona crisis. The aircraft were previously parked at Zurich and Geneva airports and at Dübendorf military airfield.
–
According to «srf.ch», some planes have been moved to Jordan for the following reasons: First, the stand fees in Zurich are relatively high. Flying over to a cheaper airport is therefore worthwhile for a long time. On the other hand, the climate in Jordan is much better for parked planes: In Switzerland, the machines are exposed to changing weather conditions. The lower humidity in Jordan is less of an issue for aircraft during the grounding time.
–
Swiss is also working with a maintenance company in Jordan, which is now looking after the parked jets.
–
Mini flight plan until the end of May
The airline extended its mini-flight plan due to the corona virus in late April to May 31. Until then, the Lufthansa subsidiary will continue to operate only around 28 weekly flights.
–
The Federal Council wants to support aviation in the corona crisis with CHF 1.875 billion. The finance commissions of the National Council and the Council of States agree. However, they want to tie the financial aid to social and environmental requirements. (noo)
