Swiss WorldCargo expands network to Toronto

Swiss WorldCargo announced the launch of a new route between Zurich and Toronto, Canada as part of the expansion of its long-haul network with the new destination being served by SWISS and Swiss WorldCargo.

"The new route will connect Zurich to Toronto with five weekly flights, employing the same Airbus model – the A333 aircraft – that has served another SWISS’ and Swiss WorldCargo’s recently announced destination, Washington D.C.," says an official release.

The expansion not only adds to the airfreight division’s current network in North America, which includes Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Montreal, New York, Newark and San Francisco but also serves diverse industries in the Ontario region such as manufacturing, technology, automotive and pharmaceutical and healthcare, the release added.

“Toronto has emerged as a critical hub in technology, automotive, and healthcare," says Lorenzo Stoll, Head of Cargo, SWISS. "By linking this city with our extensive network, we aim to nurture strong economic ties with the Ontario region by providing our customers in the area with seamless logistics solutions for the transport of their care-intensive and temperature-sensitive cargo."
