Swiss International Airlines

*** Introduction *** Swiss International Airlines has a total of 28 flights daily from the UK and Ireland to Zurich, Basel and Geneva, as well as to 90 other destinations worldwide. It's a Star Alliance Member and won the Skytrax 2009 Award for Best European Airline. *** Where they fly *** Obviously the airline specialises in air travel to Switzerland, but since Zurich Airport is a pretty large hub and the country itself is very centrally-located within Europe, I find them useful for getting connecting flights to other places on the Continent or further afield. I travel fairly regularly between Germany and Spain, and Swiss ...  Read the complete review

Leather seats, fab service and great food... what more do you want! I first flew with Swiss International Airlines on my first trip to Istanbul from Birmingham International Airport. My Journey was more than I expected in fact as I'm used to flying with 'no frills' airlines such as Ryanair and Fly Thomas Cook to various other destinations, including Turkey. The aircraft was very roomy...I didnt feel squashed at all on my journey and staff were very attentive to my needs. The aircraft was full of fairly affluent people mainly what seemed like people on buisness travelling to Istanbul itself and the aircraft was also NOT full on my ...  Read the complete review

Swiss International Air Lines, is, not surprisingly, the national airline of Switzerland. I have flown with this airline twice, and I was absolutely delighted with the service both times. Let me tell you why. Firstly, the staff were so helpful and friendly it´s hard to describe. They always had a smile on their faces, they were polite, and whenever you had a question they would be only to pleased to try to help you. Secondly, the aircraft was very clean. I know that airlines are on tight timelines and often an aircraft is given a quick clean after a flight, and then turned around and flown again. I don´t know how long the staff spent ...  Read the complete review

Firstly, I would like to introduce myself and why I was flying on SWISS. I am writing this review after four flights with Swiss, which were London-Zurich-Moscow and back again. I had to go to Moscow to visit my family, and flying on Swiss wasn't a hard choice to make. A direct flight with a British Airline such as BA or BMI can be expensive, whereas Aeroflot is renown for poor customer service. Anyway, lets get on with the review. PRE FLIGHT I arrived at Heathrow early in the morning, and proceeded to the Swiss check-in desk. The staff were very helpful, however at Heathrow most Swiss duties are performed by Lufthansa staff as Lufthansa ...  Read the complete review

The first point about this airline that i want to make is why SWISSAIR, its old name/company went bankrupt. It is such a good airline! I have flown with them twice now, just on short distances from London City to Zurich but I thoughtit was of such a high standard. Swiss serves many destinations across the globe from it's Swiss hub of Zurich. With regular flights from many local UK airports, the opportunity of worldwide travel is huge! Many of their offers are for long distance destinations such as Tokyo, Johannesburg and Los Angeles but it also appeals to the Buiness travel market with its short distance business deals. I have found the prices to be ...  Read the complete review
