About SWISS (from Wikipedia):
Swiss International Air Lines AG (short for Aktiengesellschaft), colloquially known as SWISS, is the flag carrier of Switzerland, operating scheduled services in Europe and to North America, South America, Africa and Asia. Zurich Airport serves as its sole hub and Geneva Airport as a focus city. The airline was formed following the bankruptcy in 2002 of Swissair, Switzerland's then flag carrier. The new airline was built around what had been Swissair's regional subsidiary, Crossair. Swiss retains Crossair's IATA code LX (Swissair's code was SR). It assumed Swissair's old ICAO code of SWR (Crossair's was CRX), to maintain international traffic rights. It is a member of Star Alliance and a subsidiary of the Lufthansa Group. Its headquarters are at EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg near Basel, Switzerland, and an office at Zurich Airport in Kloten, Switzerland.
About Airbus A330 (from Wikipedia):
The Airbus A330 is a wide-body aircraft developed and produced by Airbus. Airbus conceived several derivatives of the A300, its first airliner in the mid-1970s. Then the company began development on the A330 twinjet in parallel with the A340 quadjet and launched both designs with their first orders in June 1987. The A330-300, the first variant, took its maiden flight in November 1992 and entered service with Air Inter in January 1994. The slightly shorter A330-200 variant followed in 1998.
The A330 shares its airframe with the early A340 variants, having two main landing gear legs instead of three, lower weights, and slightly different lengths. Both airliners have fly-by-wire controls as well as a similar glass cockpit to increase the commonality. The A330 was Airbus's first airliner to offer a choice of three engines: the General Electric CF6, Pratt & Whitney PW4000, or the Rolls-Royce Trent 700. The A330-300 has a range of 11,750 km or 6,350 nmi with 277 passengers, while the shorter A330-200 can cover 13,450 km or 7,250 nmi with 247 passengers.

Hi Dan
Swiss First is nice😊
Is art liquid? Is it hard to sell?
Your virtue signalling here deprived us to see what this kitchen in the first class lounge really had to offer. Most people do not get the falafel. There were a dozen far more interesting menu options the audience wanted to see, than watching you eat balls of sustainably raised and fried chickpeas on a bed of polenta.
And then you blow it for the inflight meal as well. Which incidentally isn't even on the menus you showed.
That “Australian” guy was definitely a kiwi
Kiwi?
@@jacksycz NZ 🙂
@@jacksycz New Zealander
that was my initial thought, when he repeated how he said "deck"
Because New Zealanders have bigger "decks" 🤭
I think, the „extra special thing“ with swiss is exactly the understatement and the normally extremely professional and personalized service, the way you don‘t have to care about anything, they just got the feeling for what is appropriate for you and what not! a thing, I‘ve never ever experienced in other first class products!
As a flight attendant in the US, I love seeing your travel videos! It’s very interesting to see how other airlines do service and what type of aircraft they use. Great video! Also, I love Dubai! Have fun there 😃
Thanks so much - so glad to hear that🙏
Have you ever had a passenger or pilot flirt with you
@@phantomjosh2148 lol. Yes I have 😂 I’m pretty sure every flight attendant has stories about that!
@@Thehealthyflightattendant lol I have a funny story. I was flying from NC to Boston and I was waiting to use the bathroom with my grandpa and the flight attendant complimented my grandpas shirt and I thought she was talking to me so I said thanks and that lead to a really awkward moment 😂😂
@@phantomjosh2148 hahaha it’s ok! Don’t feel bad, at least you were being friendly. That’s all we really ask for as flight attendants.
Got to fly SWISS business and I got to agree, the food is their best asset. A great variety of options and they just taste so creative. It’s really the hard product that needs some sprucing up for sure
It sounds like the man behind you was from New Zealand! They say their 'e' vowels like an 'i'! People often confuse our accents but the vowels are what you need to listen out for!
(from an Aussie speech pathologist haha)!
I came to the comments just to say this! Us Aussies don't speak that way - that's our NZ cousins over the sea who say things like "Fush n Chups" (fish and chips) and "yiss" (yes)...
Swiss International Airlines is one of my favorite! It’s so classic and perfect. Love your video. Congratulations.
I flew with SR (now LX) ZRH TYO in Business call as a tour leader, the most amazing experience in my life. Most of the crew in Business were Japanese and they changed their Japanese traditional dress frequently, and before we landed, I got a call from the captain, there was a tlx from the station manager to inform me that the cherry blossoms bloomed the day of our arrival!
I've walked by that HON/First door hundreds of times and wondered if the hallway would immediately scream first class or not - thanks for solving that mystery!
Also, yeah, even with short flights SWISS tends to have decent catering on intra-Europe business from my experience, so it seems to be an issue with the caterer. I recently had two SWISS business flights and there was considerable difference between a flight coming from ZRH and a return flight coming from somewhere else. Not just the food but also what came with the food (tray size, cloth napkin vs paper napkin, etc.). That said there was a difference in the plane as well, though minor (A321 vs A321neo). I'll keep an eye next time I'm on SWISS business RT with the same plane.
And lastly, that complaint about their selection in the entertainment system is spot on, as well as the internet connection. Even if I expensed the WiFi, I had to limit it as I don't think I could've easily justify having to pay CHF 120 for two of the CHF 60 sessions.
Thanks for watching Travin!
I had their kosher meal on a flight from ZRH to ORD, and it was top notch! Even had wine to go with it. Also, their service is great. The flight attendants were always right around the corner for anything you needed. Also a great selection on Scotch.
Great video Dan. I love Aviation myself and the fact your self funded you don't have to justify the price :D Your videos are a great way to help people get deals. And also show the rest of us mortals who may not ever get to experience it what its like.
Big thanks for all the work you do for us, Stay safe Dan.
It sounds like it was wonderful flight. The presentation and taste of the cuisine is essential to a first class experience.
Of all the reviewers of first class and business class, I love yours. The timbre of your voice and your positive spirit resounds in your reviews. Thank you.
My experience was the polar opposite. Swiss was a nightmare. I flew from SFO to ZRH roundtrip and it was worse than the worst experience on any US airline. As a qualifier, I fly every 2 weeks. For many years. Sometimes 2 legs for 6 hours, sometimes 4 legs for 34 hours. I go all over the world. The experience on Swiss was horrible.
I'm stuffed just watching you eat all that food! 😀 Love, love, love Zurich airport, and Switzerland.
As always, I enjoy your perspective, content, and humor!
Editing on point! Beautiful review of the Lounge and all the flights. Another great review. 🙏🏻
Your video is so well planned, shot and edited with very detailed info , it's so lovely to watch. Thank you !!!
I tried first class on LX back in July 2019 from Bkk to zrh on their 777 and oh my… such an amazing experience and I agree with you the cabin was bit overheated as well. Your video makes me wanna try again Dan ;) thanks a lot for your. I e content once again
Wow - this is SUCH a gorgeous First product - I'm so impressed at this one!
By the way I really enjoy your videos and how they benefit me when I'm trying to find a good airline to fly with. I'm just as obsessed as you are for planes and hope one day I can have my own adventures. Thanks for the great content.
That light really gives different ambience , would love to fly with them while reading Harry Potter
Fun to fly along with you. Thank you for the wonderful video experience.
As an American southerner, I appreciate hospitality (i.e. Morocco) and wouldn't expect that from the officious Swiss.
I love your videos. As always, you are unpretentious and honest..and delightful! Keep up the greatness ☺️
What a great video ! Thank you Daniel !
Very nice review!! Thank you so much!
Always a quality video from Dan. Thanks for sharing ❤👍✈️
Wow amazing quality 💓 thanks for the effort you put in this video really enjoyed watching 👍
How wonderful is the lounge ❤. Another great video Dan.
What a wonderful flight experience and a fantastic video as always.
Lovely SWISS flight, one of my favourite airlines, they have a very respectable international economy product too. I would have preferred more visual privacy from other passengers in First Class, to max the experience. That is a beautiful outdoor area at the lounge, I enjoyed KLM's outdoor terrace at Schiphol this past September. Excellent service in their Business Class AMS-YVR. Seat 1K was a great pick because they leave the basket of treats right there, stroopwafels forever.
Nice flight footage, the inflight service looks good.
Looks very nice, great shots of the lounge
The lamp rocks! Just amazing.
Thank you Dan for sharing. You sure know how to travel
I love watching your flight experience.
Great videos! Love it! Love it! Love it! I really enjoy them. Keep on with it. Thankx.
just watched you for the first time and i love your vibe
I enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for making them :D
Nice one, didn’t expect it from Swiss. And great review Dan
Videos like these makes me really exited to travel with Swiss for the first time this july, tho in economy but considering their good rumor I'm really hoping for a good experience with them.
I've just discovered your channel, I really love your presentation style, it's nice and relaxed and easy going, just perfect
At least the Swiss Air First Class Lounge does not have arcane layover timing requirements for its bedrooms the way Turkish Airlines does (which somehow, my layovers always end up being too short, or too long, or my flight not sufficiently long-haul...) 😅
Loved the video - looks like an experience worth every penny. Lovely laptop by the way 👍
6:52 girl in the background clearly loves planes as much as Dan does
Great Vid thanks Dan
I literally could spend all day in that lounge on the Terrace. That was awesome!
The plain spotting is excellent
Great review! Keep it up
Sir I have been watching your videos for a long and the quality keeps increasing every vidoe thank you so much
I love Swiss! I traveled business and economy class, and they were excellent. Meals in the economy flight from HKG to ZRH had metal cutlery, better than the plastic ones you got in Lufthansa. For the first time snce 911 economy class felt like you were an adult at mealtime. Swiss is the jewel inthe Lufthansa group and I hope their quality remains high and enjoyable.
And I thought my fellow Americans were the only ones who can't control their loud voices. 😆You deserve a good splurge, you are living the dream! I love how you still review these experiences with so much joy while pointing out the things that could be improved, it is one of the many reasons that I have always felt that you put together the best flight reviews on RUclips. ✌
Honestly Dan great presentation loved it you are one of the few bloggers with such skills and voice lastly i would say Thank you ✌️😄
Great video! The terrace is a winner, have to try that soon! Also, love the part at 6mins 55, you enjoying your food Dan - and the lady in front of you pretending she’s a plane! Haha
swiss first was one of my favorite flights
Great review.
More importantly, for me, though … excellent production! Super smooth shots, editing, rhythm, everything. Very well done!
Have a happy day! And thank you!
Enjoyable SWISS Airlines review. I did miss not seeing Oskar, john xoxo
Great video Dan!
This looks like a really Good seat; keep the good work up Dan
Thanks for the video, greetings from Serbia.
Another fantastic video. Love your sense of humor Dan. Keep up the good work 😃😃
U know I had that exact same experience on my Swiss Air Flight from SFO-Zurich and they looked like they didn’t want to be there. But the rest of the time was amazing
OMG, your impressions are beyond hilarious, Dan!
The food looked amazing 😋
You sure like layovers for being a “no stop” fella. Cheers! Love you Dan
Another great video !
I don't know what it is but there is something I love about the A220
Some day maybe.... in the meantime, my first class flights experiences come via your videos :D thanks for sharing
Yep kiwi thanks Dan ❤
Makes me wanna fly SWISS right about now,
the car is so sweet (:
thanks for the video I flew once with swis from Shanghai to Zurich
I understand your frustration about the Swiss Business flight but I believe you should give it another go! Swiss is my favorite airline by far as their soft product is great. Their hard product is simple but elegant in my opinion. It’s not as competitive but being from Switzerland I’m proud to be my go to!
Airport lounge looked the nuts ❤
I’ve just discovered your channel Dan. It’s a delight: quirky, informative, interesting and superbly edited. 🙏🏻
15:54 Sprite and apple juice is a common drink in Switzerland, it's called Apfelschorle
Hello bonjour just thanks for your job on thèse vidéos ! From a regular french viewver in indian ocean !
Beautiful Travelogue ❤
Nice aviation footage.
Beautifully edited!
Watching this is a guilty pleasure
Great video as always. 2K is the only seat in First on the A330 that has a personal overhead air vent. I asked the crew about this on a recent flight, and they didn't know why - maybe crew rest on longer sectors?
Amazing video as always1
Awesome job dan so what s next next country will be .
Best vlogger ever
love you
I look forward to your reviews 🎉
I think there should be somewhere a spiral staircase that leads to the first lounge.
At least it was before the renovation.
still is ;-)
Thank you for your great review 👍 maybe Swiss will be one of the best first class to North America, also they could upgrade the seat and can I asked what phone you where using for the Wi-Fi scene. Thanks for the first class deals 🙏🏼
Hi Dan, great video I really enjoyed it, do you have any plans to review Emirates redesigned a380 business class or OmanAirs Apex suite after Covid times as I am very interested to see if OmanAir still offers all it’s normal services
Totally worth it
looks pretty good
One day…. Nice to see the extras
Hey Dan. Could you do a report on how to find, when paying cash, good value First and Business cabin airfares?
honestly google flights is the best. I live in NJ so I have many international airports within a 3hr drive of me, and just in NJ/NY I can fly out to nearly any European city nonstop. google will suggest flying other dates/airports for cheaper prices.
as for F, you're not really going to find many deals. first is rarely, if ever discounted. it will only go up around holidays like Christmas, new years etc. for J you can certainly find deals you just often need to be flexible with your travel dates and book 4-8 weeks in advance, assuming you mean international flights. domestic flights fluctuate much more often but generally speaking if you find a good deal take it as their pricing models aggressively change rates.
your best bet is to find your nearest airport that has good premium cabin availability (usually LA/SF, CHI, NY/NJ, MIA) and pick an airline you'd like to fly. out of USA you're really only getting LX, LF, and AF. each with their own benefits and drawbacks but it really just comes down to what part of Europe youre going to. LX can be found for US$5-7k, AF/LH often is $6-9k depending on which/how many countries you're visiting.
edit; BA is a very reasonable option if youre going anywhere in the UK area. it is often looked down upon compared to other airlines that fly first but it is also often nearly half the price so certainly not a bad option.
I would definitely not have been able to finish all that First Class food O.O
It is truly impressive that you managed to finish it, even if it was stretched over 2 hours.
thank you for the upload dan you were missed =)
Aussie represent... we do love our big woody deck
6:51 That girl is enjoying her life
This channel is so underrated. Keep up the amazing work Dan 👍🏻 👍🏻
Hey Dan, I’ve seen that you put July 22 into the description but this is actually the 2nd of July 😁✌️
I usually fly Lufthansa First outbound from America to Europe via FRA so I can enjoy the First Class Terminal and refresh myself before continuing on to visit family in other parts of Europe. On the return, though, it’s always Swiss First nonstop back home because I can’t wait to sleep in my own bed. I can’t fault either experience but then again I’m not the type of passenger that looks for faults. 😉👍🏻🤣
Just as I watch this video I look out my window to see a plane drawing a heart in the sky
