Thanks for the kind words. I am not sure about this. The new F in swiss looks quite nice, especially with the huge AVOD. One day, I would like to fly it. Newbierunner, who is very active on the LH and LX forums, would probably know the answer to your question, though. Thanks!

Hilarious! Hilarious! You have such nice literary ways of describing the plane! I love the "hairdryers" and "curvature of the earth" expressions! ^

Swiss has no plan to retrofit the F cabins on the 343 so for the time being they will only be found on the new 333's.

Thanks. I hope that this video will help him get an idea of what his flight will be like!

Did you find out if F was also new configuration? I'm curious trying their F product on that route.

As stated above, F on the A340 is not scheduled for a redo. Swiss runs their 330s with the new F from the east cost mostly.
