There you go

If you look at the timer on the website, the reveal will be on Feb 4 @ 11.52 am (if my math skills still work).
Odd timing...

Those are typically carnaval schedules

So, let's guess then. Swiss will open the Geneva Rio route.

no chances... they don't even fly GIG with own metal from Zurich. They prefer to send the insipid Edelweiss... which means i cheated and flew AF on my 2 trips there last year.

Fantastic LH 747 flying to GIG, enjoy C on upper deck. I also avoid Edelweiss like the pest.

Correct, and I received it by email - but the counter on the website still says that something will be revealed in 3 days and 15 hours !
What is it ???

Or are they just poorly linked (which wouldn't surprise me either)

Like a bad mixture of the former "Heidi jumbolino" and one of the QF "dreaming" liveries.

Dear Mr Viennafly,You recently registered on avion-swiss.ch to follow SWISS's adventures in French-speaking Switzerland.
Now is the time to unveil the first of many surprises. We have been preparing this for months, and can’t wait to share it with you.
Curious to find out what we have in store for you? Join us on a visual journey and help shape the next episodes of the story.

.... so let's see what other surprises there will be in the future ...
maybe LX will serve Tarte raisinée as desert in C on the GVA-JFK flights in March
or all lavatory doors on the B777 will be painted in the same ugly graffiti than the CS300

So it appears a new silly painting is still seen as avant-garde marketing deserving a video, news release, etc...
