SWISS Fleet Boeing 777-300ER Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

This configuration shows the newest configuration of the 777-300ER with First Class and a staggered Business Class product.

A new Economy Class is also featured on this version.

Swiss Connect WiFi internet access is available on this aircraft.

Swiss calls their first class product “La Premiere.”

Each of the first class suites on the 777-300ER has sliding doors, giving guests plenty of privacy.

The first class chairs are 22 inches wide and 80-83 inches long in bed mode.

It’s important to note that the width is with the armrests up.

There are a total of 8 first class seats spread out across 2 rows in a 1-2-1 configuration.

The 777-300ER has 62 fully lie-flat business class seats spread out in a quirky configuration.

There’s always 5 seats in a row, alternating between 1-2-2 and 2-2-1.

Each seat is 20.5 inches wide and 60 inches in pitch.

Most, but not all business class seats have direct aisle access.

The best business class seats on Swiss Air Lines are known as throne seats.

These seats have more space and provide you with easy aisle access.

You’ll have 2 side tables to use, as opposed to the normal 1 side table.

Here’s the important thing to know: throne seats are located at 4A, 5K, 7A, 8K, 9A, 10K, 11A, 12K, 14A, 15K, 16A, and 17K.

The throne seats provide you with more room and convenient aisle access, making these the best seats in business class.

Typically Swiss International Air Lines charges a nominal fee of $200 for throne seats.

The best seat, hands down, is 4K because it’s in the private mini-cabin and far away from the lavatories.

The runner up is probably 5K as it’s not terribly close to the lavatories due to the exit row.

The SWISS 777-300ER economy class cabin consists of 270 seats in a 3-4-3 configuration.

Undoubtedly, the best economy seats on the Swiss 777-300ER are 23B, 23C, 23H, 23J, and 22D/E/F/G.

These are the bulkhead economy class seats and come with tons of extra legroom.

Seat Map and Seating Chart Boeing 777-300ER SWISS

Boeing 777-300ER operated by SWISS may transport 340 passengers in three classes.

First class consists of 8 open suites that have 180 degrees recline.

These suites are located in 2 rows per 4 in each. All of them are standard.

Behind the first class seats of business class are located.

There are totally 62 flat bed seats here that also have 180 degrees recline.

These seats are divided into 2 sections.

First section contains 2 rows of seats that per 5 in each.

Extra legroom makes the seats of the 4th row good seats.

The only disadvantage of the seats 5A and 5K are misaligned windows.

The second section of business class seats is located behind the exit row.

There are 11 rows of seats here.

Passengers tend to gather while waiting to use lavatories and this may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 6DG, 7A and 7JK.

Missing windows are the main disadvantage of the seats 8A, 8K and 11A, 11K.

Economy class may accommodate 270 passengers in two sections.

Most of the seats in the economy class have 3-4-3 configuration.

The best seats in the economy class are considered the seats 22DEFG, 23BC and 23HJ.

These seats offer extra legroom to passengers.

However, these seats are narrower than standard as the tray tables are in the armrests making them immovable and have no floor storage during take-off and landing.

Missing windows, reduced width of the seats and lack of floor storage during take-off and landing make the seats 23A and 23K bad seats.

On the other hand these seats have extra space for passengers’ legs.

The noise that is coming from the lavatories and galleys will represent problem to passengers of the seats of the 36th row – the last row of the first section.

The second section of economy class seats contains 14 rows of seats.

Passengers of the seats of the 39th row and 40DEFG will feel comfortable thanks to extra legroom.

Among disadvantages of these seats: reduced width as the tray tables are built-in the armrests making them immovable, lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and close location of the galley and lavatories.

The seats 50AB and 50JK have limited legroom, reduced width as the tray tables are in the armrests.

At the same time these seats have extra storage space.

Proximity of the lavatories may represent problem to passengers of the seats 51AB, 51D, 51G, 51JK and 52DEFG.

Also the seats 51AB and 51JK are less reclining than standard.

That is why these seats and the seats of the last 52nd row are considered bad seats.

Swiss Airbus A340 313 HB JMH Chur at Zurich International Airport ZRH

SWISS Fleet Airbus A340-300 Details and Pictures. On current fleet, SWISS operated 5 wide-body aircraft Airbus A340-300.

With a range of about 11,000 km, the Airbus A340-300 serves all SWISS destinations around the world non-stop and with a full payload.

The modernised version of the jet provides maximum comfort in SWISS Business thanks to the innovative pneumatic seat technology.

The A340-300 has the endurance of a marathon runner, and holds several long-distance records.

The winglets on the tips of the wings reduce wing vibration, which saves a tremendous amount of kerosene.

The winglets also give the Airbus an elegant appearance.

Qualified pilots can transfer to the A340 in three days from the A330, or seven days from the A320.

SWISS Fleet Airbus A340-300 Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

The Airbus A340-300 is Swiss International Air Lines’ flagship aircraft.

This configuration shows the newest configuration of the A340-300 with First Class and a staggered Business Class product.

A new Economy Class is also featured on this version.

All Economy Class seats A,D,G and K may have restricted under seat storage or legroom due to the presence of an entertainment equipment box.

The A340’s first class cabin is exactly the same as the 777-300ER and A330.

You may want to avoid seats 1A and 1D in this seat map due to the uncomfortable proximity to the lavatories.

Generally speaking, seats 2G and 2K will be the most private on the A340.

The A340 is inconsistently flown by Swiss, seemingly as a substitute aircraft in place of aircraft being serviced, but it’s still has a great business class cabin.

To select throne seats, choose seat 4A first, then 12A, followed by 10A, and lastly 6A or 8A.

Just like the A330, the Swiss International Air Lines A340 economy cabin is arranged in a 2-4-2 configuration with a tapered 2-3-2 configuration toward the back of the cabin.

Row 23 is the absolute best on the A340.

It’s at the front of the cabin, has tons of extra legroom due to the bulkhead, and is far away from the lavatories.

Other options include 29 D/E/F/G, 30A/B, and 30J/K, which are situated in the exit row but are close to the lavatories.

For families of 3 traveling together, it might be a wise idea to take the entire middle row in rows 42-45.

Seat Map and Seating Chart Airbus A340-300 SWISS

Airbus A340-300 operated by SWISS may transport 219 passengers in 3 classes.

First class consists of 8 flat bed seats that have 180 degrees recline.

Business class may accommodate 47 passengers on its fat bed seats.

These seats are located in 2 sections.

First section contains 2 rows of seats.

All these seats are standard.

There are 9 rows of flat bed seats in the second section of business class.

Only the seats 8A and 8K have such a small disadvantage as missing windows.

Economy class seats are also located in two sections.

These two sections have 164 standard seats.

First section has 5 rows of seats that have 2-4-2 configuration.

The seats of the 23rd row are considered good seats as they have extra space for passengers’ legs.

However, as the tray tables are built-in the armrests the width of these seats is slightly reduced.

Also there is no floor storage for these seats during take-off and landing.

As the seats of the 27th row are located in the last row of the section, these seats are less reclining.

Close location of the lavatories will cause discomfort to passengers of these seats.

The seats 27A and 27K have less legroom because of entertainment equipment stored under the seats located in front.

Passengers of the seats 29DEFG, 30AB and 30JK will take advantage of extra legroom due to exit row located in front.

Among disadvantages of these seats: lack of floor storage during take-off and landing, restricted width of the seats as the tray tables are in the armrests, also other passengers tend to gather in this area while waiting to use lavatories.

The main disadvantage of the seats 41D and 41G is that these seats are often bumped by crew members and other passengers passing by as there are no seats behind.

The seats 42DEG have less space for passengers’ legs.

Because of misalignment of the seats the TV screens are not located directly in front of these seats which may be uncomfortable.

The seats 44AB, 44JK and the seats of the 45th row may be less reclining, close location of the lavatory and galley may be also bothersome.

In addition, the seats 44A and 44K have limited legroom because of entertainment equipment located under these seats.

Swiss Airbus A330 300 HB JHL Sarnen at Zurich International Airport ZRH

SWISS Fleet Airbus A330-300 Details and Pictures. SWISS operated 14 wide-body aircraft Airbus A330-300 during the long-haul flights.

These aircraft can carry a maximum of 236 passengers.

The capacity is divided into 183 Economy seats, 45 Business seats and 8 First-Class armchairs.

Following the introduction of the A330-300, SWISS was the first airline in the world to offer First Class tickets on all long haul flights.

The innovative pneumatic seat technology provides maximum comfort in First and Business Class.

The jet is powered by two Rolls-Royce 772B-EP (enhanced performance) engines.

The new SWISS Business seat on the A330-300 is probably the lightest of its kind.

The air cushion alone makes the seat four kilograms lighter than the conventional version with foam padding.

This weight reduction by itself will help SWISS to save over 650 tonnes of kerosene a year, and reduce the company’s annual CO2 emissions by over 2000 tonnes.

SWISS Fleet Airbus A330-300 Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

This A330-300 is used on long-haul routes and Swiss is one of the only airlines in the world to offer a First Class product on long-haul flights.

The A330-300 reflects Swiss’ newest First, Business and Economy Class products.

Business Class features a staggered lie flat seat.

In Business Class, the single A seats in the even numbered rows feel more spacious than the A, B seats in the odd rows.

All Economy Class seats B,D,G and J may have restricted under seat storage or legroom due to the presence of an entertainment equipment box.

Swiss Connect WiFi internet access is available on this aircraft.

Although the entire first class cabin is identical in design and configuration as the 777-300ER, the seats are generally a bit older.

The 8 first class suites on the A330 are arranged in a 1-2-1 configuration across 2 rows with a total of 4 seats per row.

The best seats are also going to be in row 2 due to the distance from the lavatories at the front of the plane.

On business class cabin, instead of 62 lie-flat seats like on the 777-300ER, the A330 has 45 lie-flat seats

As we mentioned, the best seats are throne seats on all Swiss business class flights.

Notice, however, that on the A330, all throne seats are located on the left side of the cabin.

In other words, there are fewer throne seats, so booking one is highly competitive.

Pick 4A as the best seat, followed by 12A. 12A is great because it minimizes lavatory and galley noise by being at the back of the business class cabin.

If both of those are taken, consider throne seats 6A, 8A, or 10A.

The A330 economy class cabin has 183 seats and is arranged in a 2-4-2 configuration.

The single best economy class seat on the Swiss Air Lines A330 is probably 23D, which doesn’t have a seat in front of it, giving you a lot of legroom to stretch out.

You can also sit in the exit row seats in row 29, but the proximity to lavatories and galleys may be unpleasant.

Other options are the remaining seats in row 23 and row 22, which are baby bassinet seats, thus affording you more legroom.

In the back of the airplane, the seat configuration tapers to a 2-3-2 design.
