Pneumatic seats for SWISS




First Class Bed
 Here at TLTB we love any seat that really can go totally flat. Forget all those 'ergonomically designed' seats at a slight angle; we all know that's just about fitting more high paying passengers into biz class (you know who you are airlines..). Zurich to Hong Kong is the first route on the SWISS far east network to have the new Business Class seat and we're loving our first look at its sleek fully horizontal lines.The seat has been installed in the Airbus 330s and is currently being rolled out across the A340 fleet. After those on the Hong Kong route get to asleep in style the rest of Asia will get the goods by mid 2011 and then the entire long-haul fleet of SWISS will offer the new seat. Those 74 percent who voted against getting rid of first class in our recent Luxe Poll SWISS will also offer First Class on every long haul flight - we always said this was a true premium airline. The Luxury Travel Bible is especially fond of the pneumatic air cushion 'whose firmness or softness can be set to individual tastes''. The Business Class cabinc layout ( a 1-2-1 or 1-2-2 configuration in alternate aisles) meaning that eight out of every nine seats has direct access to an aisle . We like.
