I work in the industry, believe me that's facts.
I have a reasonable bit of insight into this industry as well, and what I know very much supports Fly-Swiss here.

As for new residents moving to Switzerland, the best way to initially get a credit card is to get it through the bank where you will deposit your funds (i.e. income). That bank will be most likely to grant you a higher credit limit. So, if you really want the Swisscard AECS Miles & More card, consider banking with Credit Suisse.
