My favorite airport. And my favorite aircraft in business class. What could possibly go wrong? Join me on the SWISS Airbus A220 in business class from Zurich, Switzerland to Gothenburg, Sweden. Many would say Turkish Airlines has the best intra-European business class, but in this video, you will learn where SWISS shines. Watch the complete business class experience from the airport and the lounge to the seat, the food and the service.

I was on an A220 from LHR > ZRH and enjoyed the mini screen with the flight map. Also, some sort of a chocolate mousse for desert. Review on my channel 😉

I love the mini screen! So cute! I'll have a look at your video. Despite the scary SkyTeam association! 8-)

I think that Swiss are the best airline in Lufthansa group, the airport in Zurich is amazing even better then Munich wich I like. By the you have live cooking in Istanbul lounge to.

@MarkusTravels 2 ай бұрын

Agree on both points! Though I miss the TK lounge at the old Istanbul airport. That was a cool place.

The Swiss A220 offers the best Economy class in Europe as well. The most comfortable seats, plenty of leg room, and very professional cabin crew

I agree with this. Though airBaltric, with an all-A220 fleet, is also lovely in Economy.

what's all those drops in the lavatory? another reason to always wear SHOES

@MarkusTravels 2 ай бұрын

I didn't even notice the drops until you pointed them out. I'll make sure to have dry floors in future videos! Unless the condition was nasty when I entered (foreshadowing a train video I worked on today).
