Electrical outlets on Oneworld planes (also Swiss)
I was wondering what the outlets are on foreign planes. Are they still the cig lighter adapter like AA, similar to Delta's outlet, or something else entirely?
Our flights are DFW-ORD-ZRH on AA, ZRH-JNB Swiss, JNB-PLZ on BA, JNB-MAD on IB, and return to DFW on AA. Thanks for the help |
Some are Empower, some are cigarette lighter. You really have to have both if you want broad coverage. Some airlines are now installing 110V plugs (US 3-prong) perhaps in response to people complaining about the various power point styles and the need to plug non-PC gear in, such as medical gear (LH for example).

ZHR-JNB on LX is on a 343, which has 110V 50Hz accepting European and US plugs in First and Business (I believe nothing in economy). BA has empower, nothing in economy (but yes on economy plus). I flew on an IB 340 (which is what they have on your route) in business not too long ago, and I thought it had power, but can't remember what kind (empower?) -- was a night flight in a stressful situation.
If I were in you, I'd check the airlines' websites. |
