SMS flight info

Never miss a plane again with our SMS service!


You'll be told about changes in real time by SMS: if a flight is early, delayed or cancelled, you’ll be the first to know.

Want to know when a flight lands, takes off or is delayed?

Just SMS your request with the airport code and flight number. For example: if you are waiting for flight LX443 from London, send "GVA LX443" to 9889. The service will automatically recognise whether the flight is an arrival or a departure.

If you prefer to receive information in a language other than French (the default), simply add a letter to the airport code:

  • D for Deutsch,
  • I for Italian,
  • E for English

For example: for English, send "GVAE LX443" to 9889.


Cost of the SMS flight info service


The service costs CHF 0.90 per SMS received. To ensure the accuracy of the information, several messages may be sent.

To stop the subscription before it expires, send an SMS with "GVA STOP" to 9889.
