Hi all,
This TR is about my flight from Boston to Zurich with Swiss last December.
Boston Airport
I really liked the check in hall, it was very spacious and nice with high ceilings
Going towards security
However the airside part of the airport is a simple rectangle and looked a bit dated and with not much to do,
Below is the map of the airside part:
Our plane to Zurich
Swiss Frank- looks very nice and colourful
Boarding
I did not like the overall colours used in the cabin. The seats look a bit old fashioned and I did not like the black back seat since it made the cabin very dark and I don't believe black is a nice colour to choose for back seats. Grey would be so much better
Push back
Downtown Boston visible from runways
Take Off
Meal service
I ordered chicken but unfortunately it did not taste good at all so I just ate the other things
Pre arrival snack, which was tasty
And the famous Swiss chocolate right when descend into Zurich started
Flying above Basel
Beautiful views around Zurich area
Zurich and its lake in the distance
We landed close to the International terminal, which made our taxi very short
Disembarking
Beautiful welcome message
A tour of the International Pier E
Map of the Terminal
Singapore ready to take off
There it goes
More around the terminal
Going down towards taking the train that takes people to the main terminal's passport control
Here we go
Up towards immigration
Baggage claim hall
Some touristic bonus pix of Zurich

So beautiful
Views from the church
Some aerial pix of Zurich when I was flying out
Hope you enjoyed this TR :)
Thanks for your phenomenal report with exquisite pictures. I loved the extra bonus of Zurich - one of my favorite cities in Europe.
Good to hear that you had a nice crew. The catering is just like the ones offered by U.S. carriers. Salads as appetizers and wrapped brownies turn me off. I thought LX had printed menus in Y. Did they stop that?
ZRH is a pretty neat airport.
Thank you Jetsetpanda. I'm glad you liked the pictures. Actually I don't remember if there was a menu, maybe there was one but I did not notice it.
Thank you for this really good FR with beautiful pictures. BOS is a really beautiful airport. It seems like there is kind of a japonese atmosphere with all this wood. Aahaha we really don't share our tastes. I consider the CHF banknotes to be old fashioned but I really like the colors chosen by LX it's elegant. AZ chose to have grey backseats and for me it gives a really cheap aspect. Thank you again .
Thank you Kottok, yes, you are right, the check in hall of BOS has a Japanese feel to it for sure :)
Thanks for sharing this experience . A good flight , even if i agree with you the cabin is a bit dated and looks crowded. The catering looks good for economy i am surprised the chicken did not taste good as usually it´s easy to prepare .good to read that you had à good crew. A lot of very nice pictures make this FR enjoyable !
Thanks very much Skyteamchc, I'm glad you liked the pictures :)
*A330-300
Yes, corrected. Thanks for letting me know :)
Thanks for this FR.
Great pics of the approach and of the city of Zurich.
I find the main meal pretty poor, with a plain salad and pre packaged dessert.
If the main wasn't good in addition...
Unlike you I like the brownish color of the seats, though I agree a brighter color on the back of the seat would be better.
Thanks KL651. I'm glad you liked the pictures. Yes, you are right the colors depend on taste of individuals. I totally agree that some people prefer the darker cabin :)
Hi there. Very very nice report with a lot of good details and plenty of gorgeous pictures--I love the great cabin shots and aerial pics! I like the way the seats look from the front, but, like you, I don't like the look from behind. Awesome pics of Switzerland...really beautiful.
Very cool, thanks so much Kevin. I'm glad you liked the pictures :)
BOS Terminal E looks like a bummer, nice landside, disappointing airside. The rest of the airport terminals didn't look as bad when I went there.
I beg to differ regarding the seats, I think they look more elegant than other airlines'. The black is better IMO, considering they are less prone to look messy.
I loved the pictures and views when arriving in Switzerland and the Zurich tourist extra!
Thanks for the great FR, Saludos!
Thank you Chibcha and I'm glad you liked the pictures. Yes, you are right the colors depend on taste of individuals. I totally agree that some people prefer the darker cabin :)
