TRAVEL BY AIR IS A NECESSARY EVIL

Voordelen: No other way to get there in 10 hours The on crew are very nice.

Nadelen: Air travel is the most uncomfortable way to travel and airlines are working to make it worse ...according to news reports. On board: Cramped in too tight especially for a 10 hour flight. You have to be athletic to eat from the tray table. Though only 5ft 8in, I had no knee room, -especially when the person in front lowered his seat. Airport terminals inconvenient: Frankfurt AM and Zurich were lacking in people movers which made getting from one gate to the next a severe pain. I am not looking forward to traveling through either of these airports in the future... though others are just as bad.

Voordelen: service was polite & good. meals seemed good quality - I had forgotten to order a special meal to accommodate my food allergies so I brought my own food and didn't actually eat on the plane, but it looked & smelled good!

Nadelen: There were too many announcements, especially in the first few hours of the flight - constant interruptions, at one point the pilot came on and told us how much the plane weighed when we took off...... had to tell us in multiple languages, so it took a few minutes. Very cramped in economy class - I'm 5'6" - not so tall.... and when the seat in front of me reclined, it was touching my knees. For the whole 13+ hour flight it was ON my knees! It was uncomfortable and made it very hard to get in and out of my seat.

Return Flight to USA

Voordelen: For our return flight home from Cyprus, though we went on line to select our seats as we had been told, we were not allowed to do so. We were 5 passengers in my family and were put on the very last seats. When we asked at the airport in Zurich if we could be switched to different seats they told us that we had to pay a significant amount per person to do so. Therefore there were extra seats available. The people were also not the friendliest.

Nadelen: My experience with Swiss Air was poor from the very start. I purchased 5 tickets for this trip for my family. Our flight from USA to Cyprus on July 13 was cancelled. We had to take an extra day off from work and leave on July 12. Our flight back home from Cyprus July 28, was changed to 5:00am from 11:25am. Therefore we had to get a taxi at 2:00am for the airport. Instead of trying to make it up to us by giving us at least good seats, they punished us further and gave us the worst seats possible. That showed no curtesy whatsoever. Very disappointed:( I thought Swiss Air had higher standards than that.

Voordelen: Nothing...the flight was cancelled THAT MORNING

Nadelen: Flight cancelled...not so nice

Nadelen: Late take off. Delayed landing due to heavy air traffic around Zurich. Bus transfers to the terminal.
