Experience the variety of travel classes at Edelweiss
The holidays are approaching, and anticipation is rising. But which travel class is best for different needs and budgets? We'll show you the differences between Economy, Premium Economy and Business Class.
Edelweiss flies to over 100 destinations worldwide. Starting in 2027, the new Airbus A350 will enter service for the first time, featuring a completely redesigned cabin interior. The fleet will be gradually modernised over the coming months. For Edelweiss passengers, this means one thing above all else: more comfort, complemented by new seating options in all travel classes.
Travel classes at a glance
Edelweiss Economy: everything you need for relaxed travel
The brand-new Edelweiss Economy experience starting in 2027: step into a well-lit cabin and start your journey completely relaxed. Seats in the new Economy Class are characterised by their timeless design and comfort, with a backrest that can be tilted up to 120 degrees, four-way adjustable headrests and plenty of legroom. The visual concept aims to offer more peace and well-being through a deliberately stripped-back and harmonious design. A few purposefully chosen elements leave room for the truly essential, creating a high-quality, relaxed travel experience. On the seat itself, functional details such as cup holders and separate storage compartments ensure a well-organised personal space. The technological modernisation is evident in the high-resolution entertainment screen and integrated charging stations, which meet the modern needs of passengers on long-haul flights.
The best of both worlds: Edelweiss Premium Economy
Edelweiss Premium Economy with unique hard-shell seats is now available on selected long-haul flights. These have the advantage of allowing you to sit back comfortably without restricting the person behind you. Passengers also benefit from 20 cm more legroom, a larger entertainment screen and an extended menu including alcoholic beverages. An upgrade from Edelweiss Economy to Premium Economy Class can be booked from CHF 399 and is suitable for anyone who would like to treat themselves to additional comfort on their holiday flight.
Edelweiss Business: the most exclusive travel experience on board
Edelweiss Business offers what is probably the most unusual feature of all: at the touch of a button, the seat can be converted into a proper bed of around two metres in length. With a seat reservation, guests in Edelweiss Business can also book one of the coveted seats in the suite. With a mattress topper and dividers, it is ideal for two passengers travelling together in search of even more privacy. The finishing touch is the versatile culinary selection from the Business Class menu — with Swiss classics and internationally inspired dishes. If you would like to treat yourself to this special travel experience, you can reserve the new Edelweiss Business Suite from CHF 460 in addition to your Business Class airline ticket.
New seating options in all classes
No matter which class you travel in, your seat comfort can be adapted to your personal needs. In Economy Class, for example, Extra Legroom Seats provide noticeably more space for your legs. Alternatively, the Preferred Seats at the front of the cabin allow passengers to board and disembark more quickly. These seating options take existing offerings and develop them further. In addition to more legroom, thoughtful details ensure that the flight is even more relaxed.
Conclusion
Your long-awaited holiday doesn't begin at your destination, it begins the moment you step on board. Choosing the right travel class ensures you arrive at your dream destination with a smile.
