Where we are based

Our home: Zurich

A lakeside old town with the Alps on the horizon, and the city where every one of our journeys begins or ends.

Every week, 201 VELA flights leave Zurich Airport, nonstop to 22 destinations. The city centre is a short train ride from the terminal, so a long connection leaves time for a walk along the river.
