An 8 minutes flight between Germany and Switzerland, the shortest international commercial flight of the world, will soon come to an end. The 20 km route between St. Gallen-Altenrhein (ACH) in Switzerland and Friedichshafen (FDH) in Germany was launched in November 2016 by People’s ViennaLine and flies over the Lake Constance (Bodensee) and was heavily criticised by environmentalists.
A weak demand eventually compelled the operator to stop the twice-daily flights operated by one of its two Embraer 170s: it is possible to drive the 65 km between the two cities in less than one hour.
