Swiss has launched daily Boeing 777-300ER
flights between Zurich and Bangkok, replacing the Airbus A340-300 which previously
operated the route.
The new Swiss Boeing 777-300ER features 340
seats: 8 in First Class, 62 in Business Class and 270 in Economy
Class.
Mr. Dirk Grossmann, General Manager Passenger
Sales Thailand and the Mekong Region for Lufthansa Group said,
“Again, it is great news for the group in Thailand with Swiss
bringing in the flagship Boeing B777-300ER after we successfully
introduced Eurowings into the Thai market late last year. This has proven that we have a strong and steady growth
and demand in this region and Bangkok continues to be the
important Asian hub for the Lufthansa Group.”
The Swiss First Class seat is transformable into
the occupant’s own private suite that includes a 32-inch screen. Swiss First Class
passengers also get electrically-adjustable window blinds and their own personal
wardrobe.
In Swiss Business Class, the seat cushion’s firmness can be
individually regulated, while Swiss Economy Class passengers can
make use of a self-service kiosk that offers a range of drinks and
snacks.
To ensure that passengers remain connected, Swiss
offers three data packages for its inflight internet option. The
20MB Swiss Connect data package, costing CHF 9; the 50MB
package at CHF 19; and the 120MB package
at CHF 39.
