After the comfortable flight, you can attend your meetings refreshed and energized. Starting in 2009, we offer best-in-class sleeping comfort on the Airbus A330 and more.

Between the SWISS Quality offensive that we started 3 years ago and our growth in the premium segment, we were inspired to enlist several hundred of SWISS customers to raise the bar in seating and resting facilities. As a result, we have visibly improved SWISS Premium services, achieved milestones for further investment and attained a high quality standard that will be available to all SWISS Business Class customers.
