SWISS Airlines to Offer Internet Connection on Short-Haul Flights



In a move that will undoubtedly enhance the flying experience for passengers, SWISS Airlines has announced that it will soon be offering internet connection on its short-haul flights. This long-awaited feature will be available on 59 of the airline's Airbus A220 and A320 planes, with the service set to be gradually introduced starting from the winter of 2024-25.

The decision to offer internet on short-haul flights comes seven years after SWISS first promised the service back in 2017. While the airline has been providing internet on its long-haul flights since 2016, various factors, including the COVID-19 crisis, have delayed its implementation on shorter routes.

Passengers can look forward to staying connected in the skies thanks to the European Aviation Network, a cutting-edge satellite and ground radio system that ensures reliable internet connections across the continent. As part of the service, passengers will be able to send and receive unlimited text and image messages free of charge throughout the duration of the flight.

However, those hoping for free access to Swiss TV shows and films may be disappointed, as SWISS will be offering email, social media, and streaming packages for a fee. While the exact cost of the service on short-haul flights has not been disclosed, internet packages on SWISS long-haul flights currently range from 25 to 35 francs.

SWISS Airlines' decision to offer internet on its short-haul flights is a welcome development that will undoubtedly enhance the overall flying experience for passengers. With reliable internet connectivity and a range of communication options available, travelers can stay connected and entertained throughout their journey.
