But Swiss Air isn't on it. Checked out their web site at www.swissair.com but it does not work. Did find a link that got through , so try this one:


Swiss International Airlines - English

I used to fly swiss to Equatorial Guinea a few years back, it was by far the best airline going there, others were Iberia, span, KLM, the swiss plane also had the best IFE.

I personally could not give a shit about which airline i travel with, as long as it gets me there safe and cheap(if i am paying), recent example of this being Ethiopian Airlines, not exactly the first airline i would choose but got me here quickest and will hopefully get me back safe

Not many Ethiopian airline aircraft around.......Must be a bit thin on the ground!

Cough!

Swiss Air is no more. After the grounding in 2001 Swiss Air went bankrupt. they build up a new company with same planes and staff. the name is now only Swiss.

Wondered why I couldn't find them.

The second link I posted is the "English" site for Swiss.

Actually Mike I did not mean that - but it is a good sticky.

The link from Torn covers all airlines and is the one I was thinking of:

i traveled with swiss about 2001 when they had just changed from swiss air.
plane from london to zurich was excellent but the long flight from ZUR-BKK was the worst flight i have ever been on,leg room was so small i could not even get the tray down if the person in front put his seat back anyway.

Yeah, but I'm only a little fella

Read on the airlinequality site and the recent reviews of the Zurich-BKK leg are now more positive.

Why not look at Austrian and their non stop Vienna/Phuket flights

Just checked the Heathrow to Phuket (via Vienna) with Austrian. Had to put in several dates before they showed up. Cost is £1893.10, compared to around £500 (to BKK) with the Middle Eastern airlines. Thai do BKK direct from Heathrow for a few quid short of £600.

I'll probably start my holiday in Pattaya and end up in Phuket, so flights to BKK are OK.

Boss at work on Friday has asked (i.e. told) me to take my 6 week break in Feb, rather than Jan.

Austrian are are not very good, the flight from Londonto Vienna was fine but the Rest of the flight to Bangkok was crap Tvs would not work, changed seats 3 times as would not adjust lights on plane all switched off so could not even read. Had to ask for some water 6 times before i got some
