Noise cancelling headphones in F?

Hi

I have F award tickets for LAX-ZRH flights 41/40. We have never flown on Swiss before (award tickest from AA miles). Do they provide noise cancelling headphones in First?

Also, does anyone know which lounge Swiss now (flights are after April 1 if it matters) uses at LAX?

Thanks

In answer to your questions:- Yes they provide noise cancelling hedphones in F - but they are not particularly good - I always bring my own Etymotics.

For F passengers, LX contracts to use the QF J lounge - it's fine, not great. finger food, open bar, newspapers. The LX F agent comes to the lounge to escort you to the gate when it's time - and you will likely be one of the last to board. LX also provides F pasengers with security line express passes - yellow plastic tags which get you into the express lane (just to the right of the normal line at the northern security entrance - usually when I have been on that flight at that time of day in TBIT it was not needed - but last time on mar 25 it actually got me around a line of approx 30 - and I was the only one in the express line.

Overall as an AA flyer, you will be blown away by LX F - I think it is superb - from ground services, onboard service, food, the seat, IFE, amenities. On the way back ZRH-LAX you will get a ride from the F lounge in a black mercedes or the like to the E terminal and through a special security line - nice touch!

Enjoy and post your thoughts. I am next flying the route Apr 1/7 - and as always looking forward to it.
