SWISS International Air Lines is facing operational challenges this summer due to engine problems affecting its Airbus A320neo and A321neo aircraft. The airline is grounding six aircraft equipped with Pratt & Whitney PW1000G engines, which have been recalled due to defective components. While the airline’s A220 fleet is not affected by this particular issue, it faces separate engine problems with PW1500G engines. Despite these challenges, SWISS remains committed to passenger safety and minimizing disruptions.

Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) has successfully implemented AeroSHARK technology across its entire Boeing 777-300ER long-haul fleet, becoming the first airline worldwide to do so. The innovative film, inspired by the hydrodynamic properties of sharks’ skin, reduces air resistance and enhances fuel efficiency. By covering the fuselage and engine nacelles of all 12 Boeing 777 aircraft, SWISS has achieved a one percent reduction in air resistance, resulting in significant fuel savings and a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions.
