Booked 2 round trip unrestricted business class flights (Chicago to Zurich and return). Since tickets are unrestricted, there is ample time to change arrangements; therefore, would appreciate any comments from those of you who have flown this airline recently in business class. Also, what are the chances for an upgrade to first class when checking in at the airport?
Thanks

Have you checked the two threads in the SWISS sub-forum mentioned in response to your post in the Star Alliance forum?

Many people who post here have flown in SWISS Business recently. If you have specific questions I'm sure they will be happy to answer.
I flew ORD-ZRH a couple of weeks ago and Business Class was completely full but First Class wasn't and I believe there were a few last-minute upgrades to F. You might have a chance of an upgrade if you offer eVouchers, miles or cash.
I was in F (my first time in the new F :)) and my only complaint was the flight was too short!
