Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello
Quick question. Swiss air website says that ski carriage is included , but not with ‘Economy Light’. The flights I want to book (Edinburgh to Zurich) offer Economy Classic or Flex. Is classic different from Economy Light?
Also usually take 2 pairs of skis in one bag, are they ok with that?
I did ask their customer service team but no reply as yet.
Thanks
Ian

If you look at their baggage limits on European route the classes are listed as: Light; Classic & Flex; and Business
Classic and Flex have the same bag limit.
So Classic is different to Light, in that it has a check in allowance whereas Light had none.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I don't believe that Swiss offer economy light on the direct flights from EDI to ZRH.
The three options will look as per the image below - as long as you select classic or flex - ski carriage is included.
Yes you can place two pairs of skis in the bag - they don't check what is inside the bag - just the weight of the bag.

And whilst you are only meant to have one pair per bag , they dont in practice care how many pairs are in, just that the dimensions of the ski bag are not exceed for what they allow.
Although if they lose it they will likely only compensate you for the one pair that should have been in it

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

You'll need to Register first of course.

New for this year some Swiss flights now state that their free ski carriage operates under Lufthansa rules where you have to pre-book ski carriage (even though it's still free) against previously just turning up at the airport with your skis.
