Swiss International Air Lines has introduced new cabins for its upcoming Airbus A350-900 aircraft, featuring updated first-class and business-class products. The announcement was made Tuesday at Zurich International Airport, where the airline showcased the interiors under a new design concept called "Swiss Senses."

The new cabins will be available on Swiss's A350-900s starting this fall. The airline is part of Lufthansa Group, which has ordered dozens of A350s; Swiss expects to receive 10 of these jets over the next five or six years.

The first-class cabin will include privacy suites with sliding doors and a double suite option in the center for two travelers. This product draws comparisons to Lufthansa’s Allegris offering.

Chief commercial officer Heike Birlenbach said at the unveiling: "As a premium airline, we aim to continue to deliver on our quality promise through our Swiss Senses concept. All in all, Swiss Senses represents the biggest product investment in the history of our company — and a further major milestone for Swiss aviation."

Business class seats are designed to convert into lie-flat beds ranging from 6.5 feet to 7.2 feet in length. They also offer heating and cooling functions as well as wireless charging stations. Some sections will feature enclosed suites, which are new for the carrier.

Premium economy has also been upgraded as demand for mid-tier cabins grows among international airlines. The main cabin features redesigned seats with more space and human-centric lighting intended to help reduce jet lag during long flights.

All seating classes across the aircraft will have updated inflight entertainment systems with larger screens and personal device connectivity options.

After delivery of its first A350-900 in October, Swiss plans initial deployment on European routes before launching U.S. service to Boston Logan International Airport sometime this winter. Tickets are currently available for flights beginning Jan. 1, 2026.
