  • While Lufthansa got a 5-star rating from Skytrax, Swiss only has a 4-star rating. The reason? Nobody knows. Because Swiss is certainly a much better choice when flying long-haul. Fantastic catering including a massive self-service snack bar, comfortable and modern seats and they're often not even too expensive to fly on!

  • @HS-PGX
    @HS-PGX Před 5 lety +10

    Haven't flown SWISS for a year, but their business class is simply the best I have flown. Or at least the best in Europe once I fly Qsuite in July.
    The thing I don't get with European carriers: Their service seems to be behind all the other carriers.
    8 hours on Egyptair. Full meal was served after departure and hot breakfast before landing in biz and economy.
    12 hours on Thai Airways. 1 am departure and they still had to rush through with meal service. I asked why they chose to serve supper so late (At least they did it quickly) they said so that people don't complain they're hungry. Sandwiches available throughout the flight and hot breakfast (admittedly only one choice) was served.
    10 hours on SWISS business? Full meal service after takeoff from Bangkok, starter, main course, cheese, desert, chocolates (of course) Small, rectangular sandwiches handed out mid-flight (Choice of parma ham or cheese on sourdough) then this was the menu before landing:
    Chicken caesar salad or
    Macaroni with tomato sauce (hot)
    Fresh fruit
    What did I do? I asked the flight attendant to put some chicken into my pasta.
    I think that if you've watched the video, you can see my point here.

    Nice video, as usual! I really like how you capture the sights and sounds of the cabin and the plane engine, something most other flight reporters don't do in their videos. It makes the viewer feel like as if they are actually flying, which I believe would really help the people watching know what to expect on certain flights. Keep the awesome videos up, and I hope you have a great time wherever you go.
    P.S. You should fly from Frankfurt to Seattle on Lufthansa sometime :).

    Having just watched your Newark-Vienna trip on Austrian, I'd say this was a better experience. While the legroom wasn't generous on either flight, the food on Swiss was vastly better. The Swiss IFE looked more responsive and they had wifi available (for a price).

    Try business class on Swiss Air next time. I did ZRH to SFO. Service was amazing. Food better than most restaurants even in San Francisco.
    Now the seats in business are a bit different than other 777’s.
    It’s a lie flat seat but as it is reclining you notice that it’s lowering to a point where if you are the least bit claustrophobic you are going to freak out as the space for your lower body is entering a coffin like space!
    . For the single seat in its own row, in business the fee is an extra $200.00.

    I saw many videos, starting to be big fan but, I am still missing 3 important things. 1.How tall and big/fat is David/Felix or anybody else shooting report, for example, I have 189cm and 110kg so it is nice that you measure legroom by your palm, but something more precise would be nice. 2.Wi-Fi availability and cost(not in that particulary video), 3. Pricing (at least ticket cost and how in advance you book it etc) and miles collection if you collect, what I expect. Thumbs up for coach reports and easy format of reports. Best regards from Prague
