Advantages: Some things are still Swissair Disadvantages: Swissair Don't exist any more
...The first thing to say is that Swissair collapsed in late 2001 and have not existed since.
In a rare example of the subsidiary taking over the parent, the regional airline Crossair which was 70% owned by Swissair took over most of the aircraft and routes, was renamed "Swiss International Airlines", and carried on where Swissair left off. Since then they see to have found out why Swissair collapsed, and are finding it tough going; they have recently announced route cuts, staff cuts and the like.
So - this review is about a Swiss Internatinal Airlines, rather than the late, great Swissair.
There is a joke that S.W.I.S.S. is an acronym for "So What, It's Still Swissair". Well, is it?
I was lucky to fly Swissair several times when they were still around. On my recent trip on Swiss, my first, I could not help comparing...

Advantages: Real Bargain fares to be had . Good customer support Disadvantages: Limited online Check in
...Firstly, let me know assure you in my ability to compare ;-)
I am 31 years old and I started travelling at the age of 11. Since the age of 20 due to my profession I have flown all over the world. My minimum amount of flights per month is about 4 and there is no limits. The record so far is 8 flights in 10 days
As someone who lives in London, I often find myself spoiled for choice of different airlines flying to the same destination.
And in this case it's all comes down to value for money, customer service and convinience offered by competitors.
I have flown Swiss on numerous occasions. I have used it's services when it was Swissair few years back.
This airline went through lots of troubles and successes.
My most recent travel experience with Swiss happened just over a week ago.
In few words, I have no hesitation at all...
