"I hoped for a better seat"

(Switzerland)

With the arrival of these new aircraft I hoped for a better seat but I was wrong: the experience is practically the same as on the other Swiss' longhaul planes.

"could not use Swiss long haul again"

(Ireland)

30% of the room under the seat in front of you is taken up with a box containing equipment for the inflight entertainment. Should the person in front of you recline then you have 10 hours of agony with no personal space. I tried taking all material out of the magazine pocket to create extra room. Could not use Swiss long haul again even if I got it for free. I'm 1m 86 tall medium build and weigh 73.5kg.Hope this helps other travellers.

"very tight space"

(United States)

Very tight space for average and tall people there is a metal box underneath your front seat that takes feet space. Not recommended for a long haul flight. You must pray that the person in front of you doesn't recline or your knees will be crushed and the TV screen will be touching your forehead.

"for tall people a horrible experience"

(Germany)

For tall people a horrible experience on a long haul flight. Will never use Swiss again unless they add leg room.

"very cramped seating"

(Luxembourg)

Very cramped seating especially in the reclined position. Unable to sit in any position other than the standard position real difficult when trying to sleep. Will not use Swiss again for long haul unless seats improve.

"seating was quite good"

(Australia)

Hong Kong-Zurich leg. Overall seating was quite good for the medium to small frame person when sitting up. LCD entertainment system screen hopeless when seat in front is reclined as you just lose sight of the program. You lower yourself in the seat to see the program and that is when it becomes uncomfortable.

"absolutely terrible seat"

(Switzerland)

Singapore to Zurich. Absolutely terrible seat. The seat is hard and my backside was painful after a few hours. Under the seats you have a large box which contains entertainment electronics. This restricts your leg space by 25% and is outrageous to have this unit here. The edge of the metal box cuts into your leg making it very uncomfortable. Truly horrible.

"legroom is horrible"

(Switzerland)

The seats are comfortable but the legroom is horrible for a long haul flight. They must improve the legroom and the AVOD system.
