Multiple international awards for SWISS

(8 May 2026)

Multiple international awards once again confirm the premium quality of SWISS. The airline received several honors at the Onboard Hospitality Awards 2026 and the PAX Readership Awards 2026.

The new long-haul experience, SWISS Senses, was named “Cabin Concept of the Year 2026.”

The signature cocktail “Alpine Essence” received the award for “Best Onboard Beverage – Alcoholic.”  It is served on long-haul flights in First and Business Class, as well as on short-haul flights in Business Class and as part of the SWISS Saveurs offering.

At the PAX Readership Awards 2026, which are based exclusively on votes from international aviation experts, SWISS achieved two first-place rankings: In the category “Best First Class Amenity Kit – Europe,” the SWISS First Amenity Kit impressed the jury. It was developed in collaboration with the Swiss luxury brand Zimmerli of Switzerland.

The newly launched SWISS Kids Amenity Kits were also awarded gold in the category “Best Children’s Amenity Kit – Europe.”

These awards highlight what travelers can expect on board: a carefully curated experience down to the smallest detail – from modern cabin comfort and selected beverages to premium amenities. In this way, SWISS consistently focuses on quality throughout the entire journey on both short- and long-haul flights.
