London City to Bern

Swiss carrier Sky Work Airlines is to launch a daily flight (except Saturday) from Bern to London City Airport from the start of the summer timetable (Sunday March 27).  Operated by a Dornier 328 turboprop, and taking 1hr 40mins, the timings of the flight have been set to allow for an overnight followed by a full working day at either end.  Departure Berne is 1815 and departure at the London end 19:20.  When launched it will be the only service between London and Bern.

Sky Work’s history goes back to 1983 when it was founded as a flying school and has expanded over the years as firstly an executive aviation and charter company and latterly operating scheduled services.

The German speaking city of Bern is the federal capital of Switzerland with a population of 131,000.  The metropolitan area supports 660,000.  In 1983 the historic old town centre became a UNESCO World Heritage Sites and Bern is ranked among the world’s top 10 cities for the best quality of life. www.flyskywork.com
