My SWISS Airbus A220-300 flight from London to Zurich was pleasant enough, but it left me asking a simple question: what exactly are you paying a premium for to fly SWISS versus a budget carrier?
There was no Wi-Fi or in-seat power, two things that should be standard on a so-called full-service airline in 2026.
By contrast, British Airways manages to offer both on similar routes, with USB outlets and reasonably-priced Wi-Fi (and Starlink on the way).
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
