I have no Comment. Super clean, Fantastic Crew, Food was delicious. Also wanted to add the Zurich Airport. Super nice people everything is in order super clean.
I like it very much it was a good experience with an excellent service
The crew and service was excellent. The food and entertainment were very good but not excellent.
On time arrivals and departure, good in flight entertainment, courteous flight attendants, decent meals, reasonable seat space
Close was excellent. Comfort was very good. The food was marginal.
Didn't make the connection as my primary flight was 3 hrs late, I had to basically beg to be put on a different airline to continue my trip otherwise I would have been sitting on the airport for 8 hrs
Best service we’ve ever experienced! Special thanks to the crew member who took care of us throughout the journey. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We love Swiss Air!
The boarding of this flight was total chaos. For some reason, all passengers had to stand in a lengthy line at the gate to have our passports checked for the FOURTH time. No reason was offered for the necessity of the fourth re-check, and when we got to the end of the line, the check was perfunctory. There was little to no crowd control at the gate and in some cases, tempers were flaring. On the other hand, once we got on board, everything about this flight from start to finish, especially the quality of the food and the service, was probably the best I have ever experienced..
I took this flight to be able to fly with Swiss instead of Air Canada from Geneva.. The AC planes have a better outfit in Business class than Swiss, but the service aboard Swiss is really best, first-class, as is the food and beverages. Though using the same plane model (A330-300), the interior setup of the cabin starts to show its age, but IMO the planes are better serviced by Swiss than AC. I had in my recent trips with AC way too many technical problems that led to delays or even complete cancellation of my flight.. Their fleet is aging (average 20+ years) and the maintenance has taken a toll compared to years ago. Cutting costs in every corner has to be paid sometime by someone, and it's the travelers at the end that pays for it. Unfortunately for me, flying directly to Zurich puts a much longer after-fly trip on me than Geneva.. so I might go back to direct flight YUL-GVA, even if I don't like flying with AC.
Thank you for waiting for us after our first flight was delayed
Boarding was extremely challenging, long lines and wait time, almost missed my flight.
I also had excellent assistance from the special needs people in collecting me from the airplane , taking me to lounge and the coming back and taking me to the airplane.
I had a very disappointing experience with customer service. I was suffering from a severe viral infection that included a rash and persistent cough, leaving me unable to even sit upright. Given the circumstances, I requested travel credits from Canada Air, explaining the potential health risk to others onboard. However, the airline showed no concern for my condition and stated they were not in a position to make decisions based on health considerations. Despite my illness, I received no support or flexibility. Ultimately, I chose to forgo my flight due to their lack of responsiveness. It’s unfortunate that airlines like this operate without prioritizing passenger health and safety.
Regarding the onboard entertainment system: the dual audio jack is not compatible with a standard earphone jack, so I had to listen to the audio in one ear only. The airline should hand out adapters or replace the hardware. The touchscreen was flaky, sometimes it responded to touch, sometimes it didn't.
Automatized Check-in process still has many problems. The online system continuously fails. At the airport the baggage drop off with the automated systems had many hiccups and diverted many to the manual desk, which is now only one desk! For me it meant standing in two long lines just to drop off a bag. Staff was friendly, food quality on board has been better with Swiss, specially on outbound flights.
Crew was very nice. Food was below average. Entertainment choices limited. Screen size very small. Sleeping blanket small and not adequate in business class.
Bitte nicht immer Poulets mal Rindfleisch oder Schweinefleisch Danke! Ich bin schon 8 mal nach Kanada geflogen mit air Canada.
Flight from Zurich to Toronto was great Toronto to Kelowna different story Was at gate 1 hr before boarding. At boarding time, they announce that plane is at a different gate so we are delayed while waiting for plane to be brought to our gate. 40 min later we are still waiting. When plane finally shows, it still needs safety check and “ grooming” ( fancy word for cleaning) Should have been done while sitting at wrong gate Boarding started an hour late. The whole time Air Canada is emailing me saying that there is a slight delay and they are working to figure out why Try to sweep actual reason we have d as kready been told about under the rug Very poor service Totally messed up my ride at final destination And not a single apology/ email after the fact
Crew was helpful. Food was ok and boarding was ontime
Our seats were nearer to the front, but still in Economy. We found it beneficial for several reasons - were generally served first (food, drink, etc.), de-planed quicker. We also got seats on either side of the aisle, which provides a little more leg room and quicker access to lavatories.
