SWISS has dropped plans to introduce Swiss Express and is now to offer ”on sale” sandwiches, salads and crisps for its European economy class from October with fares that are said to be ”very competitive”.
In the meantime a cloud continues to hover over the former Swissair as it announced a slightly smaller loss of £60m for the second quarter and persistent rumours of a tie-up with either British Airways or Lufthansa.
Erstwhile the seven Cantons of Switzerland have set up a committee to urgently consider the situation for the regional airports when SWISS cuts its services at the end of October. http://www.swiss.com
