My friend and I experienced SWISS First Class from Zurich to San Francisco a few weeks ago and the entire experience was a bit disappointing. We didn’t get a limousine transfer, the lounge experience was “meh”, and while the flight itself was okay, the food wasn’t the best and there were a few flaws with the seat. I usually don’t send in complaints because I… Read More
Lufthansa First Class is the way to fly. Period. End of story. In my eyes, Lufthansa surpasses all expectations a First Class passenger can have – from the incredible First Class Terminal to the Porsche Transfer to the actual First Class cabin. Sadly the same cannot be said about SWISS International Air Lines First Class, which I’ve flown a number of times… and I’m never overly… Read More
Here’s my happiness in a picture… actually more like in a screenshot: I was lucky to book two seats for myself and a friend next month from Zurich to San Francisco using Miles & More miles (I’m a Senator so I can bring along a companion even if they’re not a Senator).

SWISS First Class is awesome – while it isn’t as amazing and incredible as Lufthansa First Class, SWISS First Class is still definitely in my top five. I’ve flown SWISS First Class a few times already on all of their long-haul aircraft (Airbus A330, Airbus A340, and Boeing 777) and because SWISS First awards are restricted to Miles & More Senators and HON Circle Members,… Read More
Hello from Zurich! I just had the pleasure of flying the SWISS Bombardier CS100 aircraft from Kraków to Zurich. While the flight time was only one hour, it was truly amazing to fly the new aircraft SWISS is operating on European routes. The SWISS Bombardier CS100 has been gradually introduced into the fleet meanwhile the Avro RJ100 has been retired. The new CS100 aircraft is… Read More
I love SWISS. They’re an awesome airline with a great First and Business Class product and stunning lounges at their hubs in Zurich and Geneva. Yesterday I had the pleasure of booking a SWISS Business Class error fare ticket from Zurich to San Francisco, round trip, for less than $800 USD. SWISS wasn’t the only airline involved in the error fare from Munich to San… Read More
I’m flying in a few days and naturally, I haven’t booked anything yet. As I explained yesterday, I love to book last minute because I literally have a wide selection of airlines to select from. Should I fly Lufthansa First or SWISS Business Class? I’ve flown Lufthansa First Class more times than I can count, but I’ve only flown SWISS Business Class once a few… Read More
Grüezi! Last Thursday I had the privilege of flying SWISS First Class from Zurich to Los Angeles on HB-JND, one of SWISS’ brand new Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. The flight was absolutely incredible and the new First Class product is miles ahead of SWISS’ A340 First Class, and also even a bit better than SWISS’ A330 First Class. I redeemed 85k Miles and More miles two days… Read More
Happy 2017! Should I fly Lufthansa or SWISS First Class? The first major question of the year… We are less than a day into the new year and the future so far is looking bright! As I mentioned before, 2017 will be a y-u-u-g-e year for me as I plan to move back to Europe in less than six months (after finishing university in Seattle)…. Read More
SWISS has recently opened a brand new First Class/HON Circle Lounge in Zurich in the “Dock E” concourse, which I’ve been wanting to visit since the opening day as the lounge is truly spectacular. Like all other SWISS First Lounges, the new SWISS First Lounge Zurich Dock E is only accessible if flying SWISS or Lufthansa First Class (or connecting from a First Class flight)…. Read More
