Fleet renewal still on track
Despite the tough market conditions, SWISS continued to consistently pursue its present
Fleet modernization Programme throughout the first-half period. A total of six new Boeing
777-300ERs are now in operation. The new long-haul twinjets also offer SWISS travelers
The innovation of inflight internet and telephone connectivity. On the short- and medium haul
Network, the new Bombardier C Series began to supersede the present Avro RJ100
Fleet in July. Nine of the 30 C Series aircraft on order will be delivered this year.
SWISS has also been further expanding and refining its ground product for its premium
Customers, opening new First Class, Business Class and Senator Lounges at its Zurich
Airport hub.
