Fleet
Zimex Aviation (IATA: C4, ICAO: IMX) is a Swiss carrier established in 1969 with over five decades of experience in regional aviation. The airline maintains two operational hubs: Zurich Airport, Switzerland's largest aviation hub, and Krim Belkacem Airport, extending its network reach across diverse markets.
The airline's network is built on regional connectivity and specialized operations. Zimex Aviation operates from these strategic hubs to serve smaller airports and regional destinations that require tailored aviation solutions. Its presence at both Zurich and Krim Belkacem positions it to serve business travelers, regional communities, and specialized charter operations across its service area.
Zimex Aviation's fleet comprises specialized turboprop aircraft: the Beechcraft 1900, De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, and Pilatus PC-6 Porter. These aircraft are selected for their capability to operate from short, unprepared, or challenging airfields, making Zimex well-suited for regional routes, mountain operations, and remote destinations where conventional jet operations are impractical.
