General Comments

I flew on Swiss International Air Lines back in March, with an infant, and they couldn't even give me a basinet on my return flight. They blamed their problem on the travel agent, they did not even make an effort at their very own Swissair terminal to get a basinet installed for the infant. We were also moved 2 times for no reason - can you imagine how hard that was with an infant?

The seats were very uncomfortable, both on my way out and back, I was suffering from a neck pain for several days after this flight...

Aircrafts were very old, toilets weren't working, the monitors had big cracks on them. the cabin did not pressurise properly, and also had ear problems...

Food was terrible; I can't believe they could give us such cheap food on this aircraft...

That's the last time I fly with them.

    I cant understand why the planes were falling apart. SWISS have one of the youngest fleets in the business. In fact the oldest aircraft in their A330 long haul fleet is only about 4 years old while the oldest aircraft in the A340 long haul fleet was received new from the manufacturer about 18 months ago. They are also among the most generous of airlines as far as legroom in economy goes and the seats were designed by Recaro to provide maximum support. As for the bassinet - was it possible that there were several young children on the flight? There are only so many bassinets you can fit in any aircraft. As for the food... well... tell me an airline that serves good food in economy and I'll show you an airline that will be bankrupt next year. I realise this must have been a bad experience but ultimately you can't expect business class standards for an economy ticket. My view of SWISS remains unchanged - I travel frequently (in economy) to the Far East and either of the main UK airlines flying that route, British Airways or Virgin Atlantic, have a long way to go before they could hold a candle to SWISS.
