Star Alliance - Newsletter Switzerland
Dear Star Alliance Customer,
I am delighted to be able to tell you that Star Alliance has lately won two prestigious
awards:
Firstly: Star Alliance was named Best Airline Alliance at Australian Business Traveller
Awards. Currently 10 Star Alliance member airlines operate services to Australia and a
number of offline members are also active in the market. Mark Schwab, CEO Star Alliance
commented that the Best Airline Alliance Award was a testament to the dedication of Star
Alliance member airlines in Australia. Australian Business Traveller Editor David Flynn said
the inaugural awards program recognised "trend-setters and game-changers in the highlycompetitive business travel market. With 28 member airlines under its wing, Star Alliance
can take business travellers almost everywhere they need to go."
Secondly: Star Alliance has been named Best Airline Alliance by the readers of
Frequent Business Traveler magazine. The Frequent Business Traveler GlobeRunner
Awards recognize the world's best airlines, hotel chains, automobile manufacturers, car
rental agencies, luggage manufacturers, and travel-related websites. Voting was
conducted online from March 24 through June 19, 2015, and over 162,000 votes were cast
by readers.
We are very proud to receive these awards from customers. They motivate us to deliver

ANA expands China network
ANA increases services to China to take advantage of growing demand from
business and leisure travelers. Starting from the 2015 winter schedule which begins
on October 25, ANA will launch a new route from Haneda to Guangzhou and
increase flights from Haneda to Beijing and Shanghai from one to two a day.
The doubling in services to Beijng and Shanghai means that ANA will be able to operate
flights departing Haneda in the late afternoon, arriving early evening, in addition to existing
flights which depart in the morning and arrive at lunchtime.
The new service to Guangzhou will be ANA’s fourth route from Haneda to major cities in
China including Hong Kong. With our Narita-China network of 10 routes, this expansion will
further strengthen ANA’s network linking China and the Tokyo metropolitan region. It will
also help business and leisure passengers from China to connect to other destinations in
Japan using ANA’s domestic network from Haneda. Narita meanwhile is being
strengthened as a hub for passengers connecting to international routes between North
America and Asia.

Austrian Airlines Flies to Shanghai

As of April 4, 2016 five times a week on a Boeing 777 to Shanghai – as of May
1, 2016 daily
Austrian Airlines expands long-haul flight service to Asia
Austrian Airlines will launch flight service to a new long-haul destination in Asia next year.
Starting on April 4, 2016, Austria’s national carrier will operate a Boeing 777 to Shanghai
throughout the entire year. In April 2016 the flights will be offered five times a week, as of
May 1, 2016 on a daily basis. This is the airline’s second destination in China in addition to
Beijing. The destination is not only interesting as a point-to-point route but also for transfer
traffic. About two-thirds of passengers will transfer at the Vienna hub and continue their
journeys, flying particularly to Western and Eastern European destinations.
At present Austrian Airlines offers a total of 26 weekly nonstop flights to Asia in its summer
flight schedule. In addition to 5 flights per week to Beijing, the airline also offers up to 7
flights per week to Delhi operating a Boeing 767. Bangkok and Tokyo are serviced with
daily flights on a Boeing 777. Furthermore, it is launching flight service once per week to
the tourist destination of Colombo, the capital city of Sri Lanka, starting October 27, 2015.
In this way myAustrian is resolutely expanding flight service on long-haul routes.

Six months of Rackham : an overview in numbers
Six months after the official unveiling, Brussels Airline’s Tintin aircraft can look
back on great adventures.
Rackham has welcomed over 85’000 travellers and has flown 2.5 times the distance to the
moon on his trips to over 40 different countries. Rackham is the favourite subject of many
plane spotters and is wildly popular on Instagram, including among Brussels Airline’s own
flight crew. New pictures of the shark shaped plane appear on Instagram and Twitter
every day. A project coordinated closely between the cartoonists of Moulinsart and
Brussels Airlines, Rackham was created by the airline to translate the company’s (Belgian)
values and to help accomplish their mission statement, which is to make travel a pleasure
again.

LOT’s Boeing airplanes will soon have new colours
Dark graphite for better concentration, two shades of grey for even better relaxation.
Starting today LOT will successfully implement elements of new design and colour
scheme, which is supposed to help passengers find their way around the airport
better on the way to the airplane and while on-board. All travel classes will be
marked and filled with elements which will allow passengers to have a feeling of
transparency and comfort.
By introducing class identification every passenger will easily find his or her seat on the
aircraft and will easily move around the airport. LOT’s passengers will notice the first
changes on-board and at the airports, such as, new colour schemes of food trays and
decor of the check-in areas at the Warsaw airport already now. Subsequent elements of
the new colour scheme will appear soon.
LOT’s every travel class is a separate space, based on strictly defined colours. The waves
visible on the seats have been inspired by the movements of air masses and LOT’s 86
year old logo. Blue colours distinguishing each class emerge from elegant shades of
graphite.
The navigating colour of LOT’s Business Class is light blue, contrasting with the dark
graphite complementing the entire scheme. This last colour will be used in the future as a
covering fabric of seats in the business class. It fosters concentration and gives
passengers more energy to act – frequently needed before important business meetings
immediately after landing.
Meanwhile, the range of shades of grey used to decorate LOT’s Premium Economy and
Economy Class has been juxtaposed with navy blue colour of LOT Polish Airlines’ logo
that remains unchanged for 86 years. The neutral colours of the seats help passengers to
relax during the trip. An accent of red is visible in each travel class, which makes the entire
colour scheme even more elegant and refers to the Polish origin of the LOT brand name.
Starting January 1st 2016 LOT will come back to Zürich with up to two daily flights!

ANA verbessert das Angebot nach China
ANA baut das Angebot nach China weiter aus und reagiert damit auf die wachsende
Nachfrage von Geschäfts- und Privatreisenden. Ab dem Winterflugplan 2015/16, der
am 25. Oktober in Kraft tritt, wird ANA die beiden Städte Peking und Shanghai
zweimal täglich statt bisher einmal pro Tag vom stadtnahen Tokioter Flughafen
Haneda aus anfliegen. Ausserdem wird die neue Route von Tokio/Haneda nach
Guangzhou eröffnet.
Die neuen Flugverbindungen nach Peking und Shanghai starten in Tokio jeweils am
späten Nachmittag, um China am frühen Abend zu erreichen. Bisher wurden von ANA
lediglich Flüge am frühen Morgen angeboten, die Peking und Shanghai jeweils um die
Mittagszeit erreichten.
Die neue Strecke nach Guangzhou ist die vierte Route ab Tokio/Haneda, die nach China
führt – Flüge nach Hongkong eingeschlossen. Vom etwas weiter entfernten Tokioter
Airport Narita, über den früher alle internationalen Abflüge abgewickelt wurden, bietet das
Star Alliance Mitglied weitere zehn Strecken in chinesische Städte an. Mit den zusätzlichen
Flügen und der neuen Strecke will ANA das Angebot zwischen der Metropolregion Tokio
und China weiter verbessern, außerdem erleichtern sie den Übergang aus China über das
starke nationale Drehkreuz Haneda der ANA in andere japanische Regionen. Dagegen
positioniert die Airline den Flughafen Tokio/Narita immer konsequenter als Drehkreuz aus
Nordamerika in andere asiatische Metropolen.

Ab 4. April 2016 fünf Mal pro Woche mit einer Boeing 777 nach Shanghai – ab
1. Mai 2016 täglich
Austrian Airlines baut Langstrecke nach Asien aus
Austrian Airlines nimmt nächstes Jahr wieder eine neue Langstrecken-Destination in Asien
auf. Ab 4. April 2016 wird die heimische Fluglinie ganzjährig mit einer Boeing 777 nach
Shanghai fliegen. Im April 2016 werden die Flüge fünf Mal pro Woche durchgeführt, ab 1.
Mai 2016 dann täglich. Damit bietet Austrian Airlines neben Peking ein zweites Flugziel in
China an. Die Destination ist nicht nur für den Punkt-zu-Punkt-, sondern insbesondere für
den Transferverkehr interessant. Rund zwei Drittel der Passagiere werden am Drehkreuz
Wien umsteigen und vor allem Richtung West- und Osteuropa weiterfliegen.
Austrian Airlines bietet im aktuellen Sommerflugplan insgesamt 26 wöchentliche nonstop
Flüge nach Asien an: Mit einer Boeing 767 geht es 5 Mal pro Woche nach Peking und bis
zu 7 Mal pro Woche nach Delhi. Bangkok und Tokio werden täglich mit einer Boeing 777
angeflogen. Darüber hinaus wird Colombo, die Hauptstadt Sri Lankas, als touristische
Destination ab 27. Oktober 2015 mit einem Flug pro Woche neu in das Flugprogramm
aufgenommen. Shanghai wird das Angebot zu den wichtigsten Metropolen in Asien sehr
gut ergänzen.

Reisens. Ob Flüge suchen und buchen, mobil einchecken, Bordkarten speichern

Gepäckabschnitt oder den Mobile Baggage Tracker, der den Gepäck-Verladestatus
anzeigt.
Schon heute zeigt die Lufthansa App für iPhone und iPad mit dem Reise-Assistenten
genau die Information an, die für den Passagier gerade wichtig ist. Für die Lufthansa
Android App wird der Reise-Assistent im Herbst eingeführt. Mittels einer eigens
entwickelten Lufthansa App für die Apple Watch können Passagiere den Lufthansa ReiseAssistenten nun auch über ihre Apple Watch nutzen.
Weitere Apps von Lufthansa sind die Entertainment App, welche die Reise auf Kurz- und
Mittelstrecken noch unterhaltsamer macht oder die Kinder-App „Abflug!“ für Kinder ab 3
Jahren und die App „Super JetFriends“ für 7- bis 11-jährige. Alle Apps auf einen Blick

SAS nimmt als erste Airline in Europa den neuen Airbus A330-300
Enhanced in Betrieb
SAS ist die erste europäische Fluggesellschaft, die das neue Langstreckenflugzeug
Airbus A330-300 Enhanced betreibt. Der erste Linienflug startete am Montag, den 21.
September von Kopenhagen aus in Richtung Chicago. SAS stärkt mit dem neuen
Flugzeug sein interkontinentales Angebot und führt weiterhin neue Strecken zu
gefragten Zielen ein.
Am Montag startete das dreizehnte und neuste Langstreckenflugzeug von SAS, „Tore
Viking“, erstmals von Kopenhagen nach Chicago. Es ist das erste von vier neuen A330300 Enhanced, um die die Flotte der skandinavischen Fluggesellschaft innerhalb der
nächsten sechs Monate erweitert werden soll. Eines der Modelle wird noch diesen Monat
geliefert, die beiden weiteren im Jahr 2016. Ab 2018 erwartet SAS außerdem den neuen
Airbus A350-900. Die neuen Flugzeuge unterstützen die Airline bei der Verbesserung des
Flugangebots
und
können
gleichzeitig
längere
Strecken
mit
geringerem
Treibstoffverbrauch fliegen.
Die Materialien und Farben in der Kabine wurden sorgfältig ausgewählt und sorgen für
eine harmonische und ruhige Atmosphäre, die durch eine stimmungsvolle Beleuchtung
abgerundet wird. Die Sitzplätze in SAS Go und SAS Plus (Premium Economy) wurden so
entworfen, dass sie sowohl Stauraum als auch extra Freiraum schaffen. Alle Sitze in SAS
Business haben einen direkten Zugang zum Gang und lassen sich zu einem komplett
flachen Schlafplatz umfunktionieren. Weiterhin kommen die Passagiere in den Genuss des
neuen Bordunterhaltungssystems, das sowohl Wifi als auch HD-Bildschirme beinhaltet.
Die neue Innenausstattung wird aktuell sukzessive auch in die schon existierenden
Langstreckenflugzeuge eingebaut.
Am 10. September 2015 hatte SAS die neue Route zwischen Stockholm und Hongkong
eröffnet. Im März 2016 steht die Einführung der Strecke von Stockholm nach Los Angeles
an sowie im Herbst 2016 die der Strecken von Oslo und Kopenhagen nach Miami.
