Welcome to another Flight Experience! Today we're flying on SWISS International Airlines across the Atlantic ocean from Zurich to New York JFK onboard an Airbus A330-300.
I had a very pleasant time onboard flight LX 16 to New York. The cabin crew were friendly and seemed to be enjoying their job, delivering a professional and attentive service throughout the flight, from the moment of boarding in Zurich until the arrival in New York. During the 8h+ flight, a hot meal (lunch), with two options for the main course, and a pre-arrival snack were served. A nice snack & drink bar was set in the rear galley during the central hours of the flight. In addition, the crew did frequent rounds with drinks keeping the passengers well hydrated. I also liked the traditional Swiss chocolate they offered towards the end of the flight. The hot towel service was also a nice and distinctive touch. The flight was fully booked and I couldn't get a window seat this time. I was disappointed to see that the fee for reserving a window seat was 30EUR anyway. That's not something you would expect from a full-service carrier like SWISS... Nevertheless, I tried my best to get a few shots from the window. The inflight entertainment seemed to have some nice selection of movies and TV Programmes, even though there could be more choices. The USB Port next to the entertainment screen is well appreciated. The seat was quite comfortable and the legroom was nice for a flight this long. Swiss provides a pillow and a blanket as well as some headphones for the IFE.
