SWISS’s in-flight culinary offering has also been modified to accommodate the new class of travel. The kit, which is provided by the Skysupply company, makes use of kraft paper and paper pulp in its contents to minimize plastic use. SWISS will be giving out complimentary amenity kits to passengers. Premium Economy isn’t just about the seat – it’s about the whole passenger experience.

I’ll have further thoughts on this in a deep dive – but compared to the previous PC-01, this is a major improvement. The airline uses the ZIMPrivacy seat (PC-02), which I’ve recently tried. A USB-A power socket is provided for those who need to charge their electronics. Passengers are provided with noise-reducing headphones on the audio and video entertainment system, which features a 15.6-inch at-seat screen. A six-way headrest is installed, which bodes well for passenger comfort.

The seats feature a multi-fold table from the seat behind, with a multi-fold table employed. The seats feature a hardshell design that enables them to be easily reclined at no inconvenience to the passenger behind. The seat has a 39″ seat pitch, with a recline of 31 degrees. These are covered with fabrics provided by the Bern-based Lantal company.

The seats are from ZIM Aircraft Seating and are based on the ZIMPrivacy PC-02. SWISS have 24 seats installed on their Boeing 777-300ER. This means the product will be offered on all SWISS Boeing 777-300ER operated routes. The refit has been completed across all 12 Boeing 777-300ER the airline operates (according to a tweet by the airline), with the first one unveiled in February this year. SWISS International Airlines have been busy, with the airline completing the refit of its Boeing 777-300ER fleet to have the Premium Economy sections installed.
