Does LCC flybaboo Have the Silliest Name?
We've heard some pretty funny budget airline names in our time, with Central Europe's Wizz Air sitting on top of the pile. Then we stumbled across a Swiss carrier called flybaboo.
We can't seem to uncover the origin of a name like flybaboo, but we can tell you that their motto is "a breath of Swiss air;" good, if that's the kind of air you're after. Flybaboo is based in Geneva and flies to coastal destinations like Nice, Ibiza, Sardinia and Venice.
Like many new airlines in Europe--flybaboo started up in late 2003--this one is flying on the tails of budget airlines without offering extremely low prices. Look up a Geneva to Lugano flight for January and a return trip will come in at around 230 Swiss francs (including taxes and charges); that's just over $200, which, while certainly reasonable for two flights, doesn't have the excitement of a $10 fare. Then again, you'll be able to say you flew with an airline called flybaboo.
