Heads up, jet-setters! SWISS just got its hands on its very first Airbus A350, and it's a beauty! AwardWallet was lucky enough to snag an exclusive tour before its first official flight. They're calling the plane "Lausanne," and it's packed with the latest and greatest in aviation tech and comfort.
Why should you care? Well, the A350 is SWISS's new flagship, meaning it's going to be doing a lot of the long-haul flying. This means a potentially much nicer experience for you on those longer routes. Think comfier seats, better entertainment, and maybe even a slightly quieter ride. Keep an eye out for "Lausanne" on your next SWISS booking – you might just snag a ride on this beauty!
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
