SWISS to operate new Airbus A350s on its Zurich-Seoul route
Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) is to introduce its new Airbus A350s onto its Zurich-Seoul route from the start of the 2026 summer schedules on 29 March. Travelers will thus be able to enjoy the new ‘SWISS Senses’ inflight travel experience to and from Asia, too. Launch Date: Starting 29 March 2026, SWISS will operate its new Airbus A350s on the Zurich–Seoul route. Cabin Experience: Passengers will enjoy the new “SWISS Senses” cabin concept, which emphasizes: - Modern design and more privacy - Human-centric lighting to reduce jet lag - Enhanced onboard service with refined meals and Swiss hospitality touches Aircraft Details: The Zurich–Seoul flights may be operated by either the special “Wanderlust”-liveried HB-IFA or the classic SWISS-liveried HB-IFB. Schedule: SWISS will maintain a three-times-weekly service (Tuesdays, Fridays, Sundays). Efficiency Gains: The A350 will cut flight time to 11 hours 10 minutes, about 50 minutes shorter than the current Airbus A340 operation, thanks to lighter construction, stronger engines, and higher cruising altitudes. Network Expansion: Seoul becomes the second long-haul destination (after Boston) to be served by SWISS’s new A350 fleet. This marks a big step in SWISS’s modernization, blending sustainability goals with passenger comfort.
