For those of who you are not aware, SWISS offers the opportunity to surprise friends and loved ones with in-flight treats during their SWISS flights.
Known as ‘SWISS Choice’, the program is available on flights that are at least 70 minutes long and anyone can participate. All you need to know are their flight details and you can make the rest of the arrangements on SWISS.com
To publicize the program, SWISS is running a contest that will award the winner their own ‘SWISS Choice’ experience. The winner can choose to take advantage of it for themselves or use the prize to surprise someone else flying on SWISS.
The winner of the contest will have to provide SWISS with the flight information for the flight on which the SWISS Choice will be used. This has to be done at least 4 days ahead of the travel date. The flight of course has to be operated by SWISS. The prize must awarded between December 14 and April 30. The deadline to enter the contest is November 15.

Lufthansa had originally planned to resume flights between Dusseldorf and Chicago in late March, but has now decided to cancel the service altogether.
The previous timetable had 6x/week service set to resume between the 2 cities on March 27.
Daily multi-flight service from Chicago to Frankfurt and Munich remains unchanged.

The union representing LH’s cabin crew came out with an announcement today stating that their members will walk off their jobs beginning November 6 and lasting UNTIL November 13. This is not a typo or an autocorrect blunder.
Further details were not forthcoming so it is not known whether it is an absolute strike by all crew for the whole week which would paralyze the airline, or if there will be targeted strikes during the week. I suspect the latter.
In the past, the union would target specific service such as short haul or long haul service but typically not both at the same time. These rolling strikes would last 2-3 days.
The squirrelly union left itself an out saying should Lufthansa approach them with another offer, they would consider calling off the strike. How very benevolent of them……
