It was really nice of you to say thank you to the less mentioned aviation workers, the de-icer guy, fuellers and the bag handlers. You're so right, nail on the head. Without these hardworking people, we wouldn't be flying anywhere.
Support staff mean everything to an airport. I know that Dallas Fort Worth Airport (DFW) has so many staff that they outnumber the populations of small towns near and around the airport. Seriously. The airports is a major stopping point for people crossing the country. When British Airways resumed A380 service earlier this year, they chose DFW as the stopping point. It has given the airport security small problems: the guards have to drive around the runways frequently to keep photographers and bloggers away. They simply access British Airways' website so they know when the A380 comes/goes and are at the runway fence all the time. I would NOT want to be within even 20 meters of the runway when the A380 takes off. The jet blast from the engines can throw a pickup truck in the air!
I always enjoy your reviews Jeb but I especially appreciated your thoughtful shoutout to the ground crews today. They DO keep us flying safely & most people don’t even give all that hard work a second thought. Bravo!
Swiss definitely has potential. Although they might have some very small flaws I think their still one of the best airlines in Europe without a doubt. Thinks a lot for the great video Jeb and cya in the sky!👍🇨🇭🛫
As a former de-icer and fueler, when we de-ice, once you push back 10ft, in order for us to get the truck in, you technically have departed and the de-icing won't cause a "delay".
Man, Jeb. You’ve got the best job in the world, traveling all over the world on all of these awesome planes and airlines. Hope to be just like you one day.
I gotta love Swiss airlines. Although their A330 economy cabin is outdated, some of my best flights were on the Swiss A330, and I really want to try their 777 sometime.
I flew them once on their cute little Avro jets between Switzerland and Germany once or twice. They're a good airline but landing in Zurich is a mixed bag. It was heartbreaking looking out and seeing the remnants of Swiss Air. It was an overwhelming sea of red and white planes that were either sold off cheap or scrapped. My father still blames the management for the fall of the airline. Probably because of contract agreements with them, the airline Sabena also collapsed with Swiss Air. A sad day in aviation. And it didn't help that tragically, it happened only months after Sept. 11...
As a Swiss guy I never went to the lounge in GVA, and it's my home airport x) Now that I've finished the video, I can tell that yes Zurich is far more better than Geneva airport but that the same in every things in Switzerland... The Swiss-German get all the fancy new thing and us we just recycle the old stuff they don't want 🤷♂
Hello from Lausanne! I do agree that we don’t get as great things as the Swiss-Germans. But at the end of the day, it’s still not bad at all (pretty neat, even!), in my personal opinion and expert. And I must be one of the rare persons who prefers GVA airport rather than ZRH airport (which is a nice airport nonetheless)… 😅
Great video again Jeb! You are really unlike a lot of flight reviewers. You are always grateful for what you have received and not complain about the smallest little things. This is why you are my favourite reviewer. I hope you fly Singapore Airlines soon! Their regional business class product on their 787-10s and A350s are worth the money!
I flew Swiss Air from Zurich to Bangkok back in April 2021 in Business. It was my first time in Swiss Air long haul, and even though the massive and famous lounge in Zurich Airport was basically dead (no food/drink service, so we just literally just sat down and looked at each other? I did take a lot of the Soeder mini hand creams from the bathroom… haha). Had some pandemic related issues getting ON the flight because of documentation mix ups that were common back then, but we were finally bussed onto the plane a few minutes before the doors closed. The flight itself was fantastic and it was a lovely farewell to Switzerland after being there for 6 months. The cabin was empty, but I didn’t shift to the thrown seat cos I like having an empty seat next to me to dump all my stuff. The service was very friendly, the food was fantastic and the Swiss wines were a treat. The IFE was enough to keep me entertained for that long overnight flight - even ordered the fantastic tomato soup off the snack menu for a late night snack.
We did Cleveland-Chicago-Zurich-Dubai and back on Swiss several years ago. 2 young kids in tow during Christmas. We were in Swiss economy on a combination of A330 and A340. Loved them. We were booked into a small mini cabin just behind business for all legs. Felt like something special.
Swiss is a good treat over the Atlantic...had the pleasure several times in C...but long before I became a frequent flyer and a LH SEN I earned my bucks during my studies at the VIE airport by loading and unloading planes with luggage and freight 😃 was a well paid but pretty sweaty job...also helped to turn into an airline nerd...
I flew Swiss from SIN to ZRH in Feb 2022, all said, the flight was great. The seat while narrower than SQ's was still plenty comfortable for a business class offering. Catering was good.
Since I am in Economy on most flights, United has been my preferred airline. As a UA Gold or Platinum the E+ section is usually not full. Extra room is appreciated on long hauls. For those times I was upgraded, ANY airline is a treat!
Swiss is definitely the best European Airline. After a Long time of pandemic they are not on the same level since before. I am optimistic for the future! The service and food in the Lounges, the First and Business is very very Good!
Was just in Geneva for the first time earlier this month for work--it was my first international trip in over a decade and I had such a good time. Loved the international terminal.
I generally fly to Europe out of LAX and the long flights give a great experience in most any business class. Turkish is my #1, then Austrian and Swiss tied for #2. Thanks for another nice review, Jeb.
Back in july last year I flew from Zurich to JFK and it was amazing! Many empty seats due to covid, food was amazing for economy passenger! Definitely my favorite for flying for my first time ever!
Thanks for the shouout to us rampies. I work at PER and BME and we are on and in those planes in almost all conditions. Not always a fun time but certainly a unique view we get
Forget about the planes Jeb, we need a watches channel for your personal collection too! That meteorite dial GMT master 2 is 🔥.. who is your AD and do they need more customers? 😂
I really like you reports, not too long and you are so positive. I worked for Swissport during my time as a student, I know how hard work the loading of luggage is. If it is 30 Celsius, the Tarmac can reach more than 40. All the beste to you !
As a previous frequent Lufthansa flyer, your experience is spot on. There’s no real discernible difference between the lounges. Sometimes the food offering is slightly better in the Senator lounge, but the only tangible benefit I’ve found is that the Senator lounge can be lees busy sometimes.
SWISS's business class is definitely lovely and almost the best among the ones I have flown. The last time I flew it was on its A340-300 on Zurich - Hong Kong in Aug 2020 at the height of the first COVID wave when the world still didn't know what it was really. The flight was practically empty. There were at most 30 passengers on the flight, in which 5 were in business class. I got one of those premium private seats but there was no need to pay extra. The flight was originally scheduled with 777-300ER, in which they charge extra for those seats, but when the flight schedule changed and the equipment was changed to A340, they did not charge extra for those seats any more. The cheese and the cappuccino on board were amazing. The FAs were very attentive. It's the only time I asked for extra food during a regular meal on a plane. They provided a full meal with full services even during the height of COVID, which was much appreciated.
Based on what Jeb mentioned, this sounds like they are beginning to up-charge for certain business class seats? Disgusting if so. The airlines only know which seats are better because of passenger reviews. They should down-charge for some of the crappy seats. I haven't seen an up-charge on any other carriers and I've booked two business class trips recently.
@@Originalman144 My guess is that LX has always been charging extra for those "better" seats, but somehow not doing that on the older A340-300 aircraft, because, as I mentioned, they were charging for those seat on my flight back in 2020 as well when it was scheduled with the 77W, just that it was dropped when they switched the equipment to the 340. In any case, I would fly LX long range business class any time.
love how you filmed all the buildings with the amazing swiss brand and then flex on us with your pepsi GMT, great taste in watches and airline my friend :)
My favorite Star Alliance carrier to Europe is Lufthansa. I have siblings in Zurich and Stockholm and I’m in L.A. The flights are long so outbound, it’s always Lufthansa and a 2.5 hour layover in FRA so I can enjoy the amenities of a shower and sit down lunch in the separate First Class Terminal so as to arrive fresh when I’m picked up. Back to L.A., it’s always either Swiss or SAS nonstop (depending which sibling I’m visiting) because I just want to get home to my own bed straight away. 👍🏻😉
This is great! I'm trying British Airways new Business Class this month between NY and Geneva, can't wait to compare notes. As always, thanks for the inspiration Jeb!
Thanks for the review Jeb. I'm flying LX22 in business June 2023 (my outbound is SQ25 to FRA). I'm excited about the food! I will say the IFE really looks dated but that certainly isn't a deal breaker. This route happens to begin in Switzerland for you but I feel like all of your videos have Swiss easter eggs...most people saw that Pinot Noir, I saw the Pepsi....bezel;)!
Thank you, Jeb! You give a first class experience to us, the fans. I’m very proud to work for an industry leading fractional jet ownership provider, which you have flown on and reviewed. Cheers from KCGF!
great one Jeb!!! I recommended this in last weeks video (I don't think you took my advice) but still its great to see!!! Your content is great and keep going!!!
LX, LH and OS are part of the same family - you will see the same type of lounge set-up where the "nicer" lounge is next to the other lounge, with a kitchen in between, and really no difference in anything, except exclusivity of entry requirements.
Another nice video review of an airline I would hopefully fly on in the future and fly with them in business or first class. I like how you thanked and acknowledged all the other airport workers. I know it is your video, but if I made a video, I would say baggage loaders and unloaders instead of throwers even though that is what some may do 😂.
Fun facts: This is the only long haul flight operated by SWISS out of Geneva with the only other flights being short and medium haul flights across mostly Central and Southern Europe as well as Marrskesh, Djerba and Hurghada in Northern Africa. Also of note: That flight to JFK also offers the only non-Zurich departing First Class for SWISS in their entire network, which is why Geneva even has a First Class lounge. I was in the Biz lounge at GVA back in September and it's about average with most Lufthansa-Group lounges these days but it's still solid enough for a decent, relaxing wait in the Mezzanine before your flight. Other airlines with long haul operations out of Star Alliance include: Air Canada (Montreal, little bit of French Connection here) United (Newark and Washington-Dulles) Ethiopian (Addis Ababa of course) Air China (Beijing Capital) Additionally, Emirates, Etihad, Qatar, Saudia with both hubs and seasonally Delta from JFK also offer long haul services. British Airways run a lounge here too for the Oneworld airlines (Finnair, British Airways, Iberia and Qatar) departing here that you walk by as you head to the SWISS Biz lounge while SkyTeam customers have a joint Air France-KLM lounge you saw right next to the SWISS lounge. Hoping to go back to Geneva some time as it has a very wild selection of airlines including Kuwait and Mauritius national airlines both departing here too!
As a Canadian living in Air Canada's main hub (Montreal). I'd have to say Air Canada is my favourite Star Alliance Carrier. I've flown Delta most my life though. Hopping on United for the first time in 3 weeks to fly to HNL. Looking forward to the experience.
Only time I've been been in plane was in museum was at Hill Air Base . The planes from world War 1 and 2 , my dad used to work there went to the Air shows every summer. BTW how's Suzanne doing miss her.
The only European airlines that I’ve flown on are Air France and KLM. Thanks for letting all of us know how good Swiss is! I’m definitely impressed with the airline.
I appreciate your kindness for the hard workers in airports and on flights, not many would take the time to say thank you to them.
As a ramp worker, it makes me feel good getting that recognition. Thank you Jeb!
Definitely appreciate the shoutout Jeb, as always!
This mans commentary and kindness is very heartwarming. Genuinely
I have never flown in first or business class but after watching your videos I feel like I have. Thanks for lifting the veil for me!
Same here! I’ve been in Delta comfort as the highest and am grateful that Jeb Brooks shares the experiences
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE MISSING, YOU SHOULD TRY IT!
@@seanp7dc that he is impressed with himself?
Thanks for watching! Hope you will make your way onboard someday!!

I always enjoy your reviews Jeb but I especially appreciated your thoughtful shoutout to the ground crews today. They DO keep us flying safely & most people don’t even give all that hard work a second thought. Bravo!
Thanks for the shoutout to the outside employees. I worked inside (PI/US) but my dad was a mechanic (UR/PI/US) and now my son works outside for DL.
Swiss definitely has potential. Although they might have some very small flaws I think their still one of the best airlines in Europe without a doubt. Thinks a lot for the great video Jeb and cya in the sky!👍🇨🇭🛫

As you rightly mentioned, the airport ground staff and associated personnel have to be appreciated and thanked big time !!
Great flight, food, ect. Noticed the Patek Phillip store in town. Can't believe there is snow in Europe this late in the season. Another A+ video.
My wife and me recently tested positive for covid. Your videos have been a huge part of our entertainment. Thank you for that.
Hopefully you guys feel better soon

Hi I seen you before on discord
Loved the Economy Premium on 777-300ER. Love flying Swiss anyway-always my first choice. Best experience yet

Swiss is bliss.
Geneva is so underrated, i have been there! loved it!
Swiss air is so elegant, their attention to detail is very good
Even better when the flight attendants are attractive. Many won't say it but I will. It definitely enhances the experience.
Flown swiss to Europe 3 times in the last 7 yrs never an issue excellent service my go to airline when I travel to Switzerland
Stunning BA Better World livery at 6:22

I had a parmesan mousse in Swiss business class that pretty much rocked my world.
@Jeb - Great review, thanks! Quick hack for future reference: Swiss Throne seats typically become available for free 24h prior to departure.
Props to you for heralding the hard work done by the staff on the tarmac, not many reviewers do that.
Oh great, NOW I want to travel somewhere by plane and in first class. Gee, thanks. :D
Yea another video! One of the things I look forward to every Saturday.

They do not go unnoticed. Nor did the shot of Patek Philippe!
@@brownmcpherson5724 you’re not wrong! He’s worn a couple really nice Rolex’s in the last couple of videos including this video
He's worn some nice non-Rolex, too.
@@brownmcpherson5724 very true!

Hi Jeb glad you liked Geneva, looking forward to next week's video.
I'm from geneva and I love swiss, it has an amazing buisness and first class

Love each and every video you make, helps me dream when I can travel again. Keep up the fantastic work. Singapore is my favourite.
My last flight was between Swiss or Air France, had no idea which cabins were on route but assumed AF would be better, it was the A350-1000, stunning!

I flew their 777-300ER from Zurich to SFO a couple months ago and it was AMAZING… SWISS really is a luxury airline in business.
Oh Jeb, the suffering you do for us fans! :) Thanks for another great video!
I love flying Singapore from JFK-FRA, and especially sitting upstairs on the A380!
Such a servant leader and flyer Jeb!
Switzerland Is A Beautiful Country
Love those throne seats. Old but very compfy. Just flew on one 3 weeks ago
After watching a couple of your videos, I have enjoyed them all.😊

Yes! Thanks for Giving detail on Swiss! I want to fly their A340 Edit: Favorite Star Alliance member United

My favorite Star Alliance carrier to Europe is Lufthansa. I have siblings in Zurich and Stockholm and I’m in L.A. The flights are long so outbound, it’s always Lufthansa and a 2.5 hour layover in FRA so I can enjoy the amenities of a shower and sit down lunch in the separate First Class Terminal so as to arrive fresh when I’m picked up. Back to L.A., it’s always either Swiss or SAS nonstop (depending which sibling I’m visiting) because I just want to get home to my own bed straight away. 👍🏻😉
This is great! I'm trying British Airways new Business Class this month between NY and Geneva, can't wait to compare notes. As always, thanks for the inspiration Jeb!
Ive been watching your videos for the past month and havent been on a plane since 2009 lmao. Definitely something calming about air travel.
I figured you’d have to bring out the Big Guns for a time in the city that builds pieces. And you did!
Thats a beautiful video Jeb! Liked!
Passed right over cape cod at the end! I was down there somewhere when you showed it haha
What another great video. I just flew BAs club world long haul from LHR to the US and I have to say I used he Jeb score and I ranked it a 22/25.
I couldn't believe they serve Lindt chocolate not Laderach. Love you, Jeb.

Great vlog as always! LX in owned by LH like OS is too. Looking forward to the next one.
I love your videos! You always add a little humor into these reviews
Swiss business is the best way to cross the pond.
My go-to content creator for now!
Excellent trip report Jeb! I’d have to say that this Swiss A330 was far better than the party you had on the A330 from Nairobi to Zurich.😸
This is so cool! Because I have flown HB-JHI on the ZRH-DEL and DEL-ZRH route, I even tracked your flight!
great one Jeb!!! I recommended this in last weeks video (I don't think you took my advice) but still its great to see!!! Your content is great and keep going!!!

Pre-pandemic, I travel to Europ a couple times a year and have always had good experiences with Lufthansa.
My first flight was Swiss in 2005 BOM to ZRH was as an amazing experience.
Fun facts: This is the only long haul flight operated by SWISS out of Geneva with the only other flights being short and medium haul flights across mostly Central and Southern Europe as well as Marrskesh, Djerba and Hurghada in Northern Africa.
Also of note: That flight to JFK also offers the only non-Zurich departing First Class for SWISS in their entire network, which is why Geneva even has a First Class lounge.
I was in the Biz lounge at GVA back in September and it's about average with most Lufthansa-Group lounges these days but it's still solid enough for a decent, relaxing wait in the Mezzanine before your flight.
Other airlines with long haul operations out of Star Alliance include:
Air Canada (Montreal, little bit of French Connection here)
United (Newark and Washington-Dulles)
Ethiopian (Addis Ababa of course)
Air China (Beijing Capital)
Additionally, Emirates, Etihad, Qatar, Saudia with both hubs and seasonally Delta from JFK also offer long haul services.
British Airways run a lounge here too for the Oneworld airlines (Finnair, British Airways, Iberia and Qatar) departing here that you walk by as you head to the SWISS Biz lounge while SkyTeam customers have a joint Air France-KLM lounge you saw right next to the SWISS lounge.
Hoping to go back to Geneva some time as it has a very wild selection of airlines including Kuwait and Mauritius national airlines both departing here too!
As a Canadian living in Air Canada's main hub (Montreal). I'd have to say Air Canada is my favourite Star Alliance Carrier. I've flown Delta most my life though. Hopping on United for the first time in 3 weeks to fly to HNL. Looking forward to the experience.
My favorite is Swiss air!
I love Swiss Air! I enjoy this video
That’s an insane watch. A meteorite gmt 🔥
Flew their 777 in January and it s definitely a more new and nicer product.
That breakfast in the lounge, served on prison food trays looks particularly appetising.
Only time I've been been in plane was in museum was at Hill Air Base . The planes from world War 1 and 2 , my dad used to work there went to the Air shows every summer. BTW how's Suzanne doing miss her.

Great video Jeb, I really want to go to Switzerland one day!
