Edelweiss Air Business Class

Airline overview

Edelweiss Air is Swiss International Air Lines' leisure subsidiary flying A340s from Zurich to sun and long-haul holiday destinations. Miles & More earning and Swiss lounge access, with a relaxed vacation-oriented atmosphere.

The business class experience

Business Class features Lie-flat 2-2-2 layout (A340). Seat width is 20 inches and fully extended bed length is 76 inches — comfortable for passengers up to about 6'3" (190cm) to sleep fully flat. The seat layout on Edelweiss Air's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.

In-flight entertainment is delivered via 12-inch touchscreen. Dining on Edelweiss Air: Swiss cuisine with destination-inspired dishes. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 23kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.

Lounges and ground experience

At the home hub: Swiss Business Lounge access (ZRH). At other airports worldwide: Lufthansa Group partner lounges. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.

On the ground at departure, Edelweiss Air business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.

What travelers say

“Swiss leisure carrier. A340 lie-flat is older but functional. Swiss lounge access and Miles & More are the perks. Good for resort destinations from Zurich.”
