Wet lease partnerships

Wet lease means that a partner airline operates a flight on behalf of SWISS using its own aircraft and crew. This enables us to offer you a reliable and attractive flight offer, even during periods of high demand. The partner airlines meet our high quality and safety standards. In addition, you can expect reliable service as well as SWISS’ renowned culinary offerings.

Codeshare partnerships

Our codeshare partnerships with selected airlines make Lufthansa Group’s global route network even more extensive. You can conveniently book your flight through SWISS and travel on selected routes with a partner airline, all without making an additional booking. These are the benefits that await you:

  • More destinations worldwide
  • More flexible flight times
  • Seamless services, including checked baggage through to your final destination
