Swiss to start handing out New amenity kits.

Swiss will start to hand out new kits to its long haul business class flights for the next three years. Swiss with Victorinox will feature a range of a few designs.

These are welcome news. It's about time! Not that amenity kits are that important, but the ones Swiss has been distributing in J in the last few years have been almost embarrassing.

Victorinox is not great except for Swiss knifes. For when is the rollout forecasted?

And here is a little contest, that comes with launch of the Victorinox Amenitiy kits: https://flyswiss.victorinox.com/
Wish I could take part in this... but working for Victorinox I'm not allowed to :-) Looking forward to get my hands on one of the kits soonish!

Hmm... does this mean the same metal tin on inbound flights for the next 3 years? That will be a lot of pencil cases!

I received a darker graphite colored Victorinox amenity kit on my flight this week. The internal contents are similar to the previous kits, however new toothpaste and toothbrush, and new packaging for the lip balm and ear plugs (now inside a paper tube which meant that mine were squashed when I took them out).

But a definite improvement in terms of design.

Fine, I have a lot of old metal tins (with the planes on them) to replace after a couple of years...

I would like to see some pictures of the new amenity kit taken by FTers, not by the LX marketing department. How does the quality of the tins, passport holders and pouches feel?
