For all those watching this video I'm a swiss cabin crew member and the interior design of the Airbus 340 has been changed like the Boeing 777. Just to let you know :) great video by the way!
Did you know there is another Swiss First Class lounge near the E gates? That one even has private hotel style bedrooms. I think you went to the one near the A gates. Tip: Once you get to the lounge near the A gates, ask for a ride to the E gates so you can use the lounge there instead. That way you won't have to wait until the last minute before boarding to get your ride over. The Swiss First Class lounge near the A gates is mainly for passengers connecting from an international first class flight to a Schengen flight or for HON members travelling within the Schengen area.
They have changed their cabins now. And to be honest I they had more food to serve but I couldn’t eat as I was full from the lounge food. It wasn’t as good as Lufthansa’s first class but it was still very good
Very nice report. I transited Kloten on two trips between the U.S. and Tanzania a few years back. United and SWISS are great partners and ZUR is now my choice as a European transfer stop.
Was there a choice for lunch? It was a strange assortment of foods (another commenter called it chaotic) but I'd probably try most of it except the sushi. The breakfast looked quite good. Some commenters carped about the seating, but since I can only afford to fly economy I though it looked good! On an 11 hour flight you need some pampering, and I guess you got it here.
Nice video! Swiss should really update their FC seats on the A340 though, for 11,000 $ round trip, those are not good seats by any. means Thanks for sharing
Thank you for your positive feedback! The Purser did come to me and apologise for the ageing cabin. She said they are in the process of refurbishing their entire fleet soon like they did with their B777s. Maybe they have already done it! Let’s hope so because as you said this cabin was outdated!
Wonderful video as always..thank you for sharing. They way of getting you on board from the lounge i thought was extremely poor for First Class, compared to how LH or Thai dos it. Its really a pity you did not show the menue card and the wine list.And the menue toally confused me. You started with the sushi and then had the Balik salmon as a main? But this cannot be the real menue sequence on Swiss. The salmon is usually the appetizer, isnt it? And the sushi was a main or an alternative appetizer? And this (hot?) course with vegetables and meat (just a slice of sausage and ham) looked extremely poor again. Wasn´t there a real decent main dish???? Totally disappointing. Would have been more clear with the menue:)))
Wow thank you for that amazing compliment. It really means a lot to me. I do this as a hobby but positive comments like yours make me want to do this full time. Thank you 😊
To answer your question...check in 3/2/1, concourse A/B and then from the airside center to concourse E by sky train (undergroud actually). My question...when did you shoot the video? It is still the old Swiss First class.
Very good video. I was disappointed with the Swiss FC product at all stages and would not choose it for luxury travel based on this video. It is definitely incomparable to the JAL FC neither to other airlines services even under the pandemic.
Thanks for the video - it showed me that its not worth to spend that much money for a Swiss First Class ticket. You could get this kind of service traveling United Polaris for far less.
Thanks Arno for pointing out the error. Yes you are right. It is a twin engine A340. It’s not an A330 as I first mentioned. I was almost half asleep when I finished uploading the video so didn’t see the mistake. Thank you for the positive feedback as well. I really appreciate it!

In addition to the flight , the Swiss public transportation system is SO amazing!

Wow, definitely a cabin to avoid, in case they still have this old design around.
Plus, the food looks VERY subpar.

Love it!!🔥😍
nice video, but boarding at Swiss is disappointing for first class I think as is the cabin and the luncheon which seamed to me a quite chaotic mixture
food looks appalling
Really a very nice and a smooth journey. So runway 05 when you are coming to INDIA. May your further journeys be safe and smooth.
Thank you very much
We truly 🙌 ❤ 💜 ♥ 🙏 love 💘 the A340 as well as the rest of the Airbus planes.
I really liked this video. Thank you! I bet you didn’t want that flight to end! 😀😀
Oh absolutely! I wished it was at least 20 hours long 😝 thank you very much for your support and compliment:)

Levon Alyanakian actually from now they refurbished all their a340 which I flew it in business class last summer. It's was awesome 😎
It is amazing how much food people are able tom consume

Other than the larger seat and seating area, it looked like a throughly Business Class product...hardly worth double the price.
Great video
Excellent

how do you get from check-in to terminal E? Thank you very mich for the Report?
You are welcome. To be honest, I won’t be able to help you with that question because I have no idea.

what an amazing experience. I love videos like this and that observation area in zurich seems fantastic

Was that the Grindr notification tone heard at 10:12? :p
Honestly most Asian business class are far better. And surely cheaper
I’m pretty sure this is a 4 engine airplane... apart from that small mistake, very nice video!!
Arno EK 2 engines
Sorry title says 330 which has 2 You are correct this a 340!

RUNWAY 05 no problem! I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work :D
Thank you 😊
Hi!
For a first class ticket the food wasn't that good
They served a lot of food!
For First not really spectacular, neither the lounge, nor the boarding or the inflight experience.
