SWISS introduces Pre-Select in Economy Class
SWISS is expanding its meal pre-selection service to Economy Class
SWISS International Air Lines (SWISS) is expanding its meal pre-selection service to SWISS Economy. Passengers on long-haul flights departing from Switzerland can now choose between a meat dish and a vegetarian dish from Hiltl before departure. Selections can be made between six weeks and 24 hours before departure.
With the introduction of Pre-Select in SWISS Economy, SWISS is further expanding its meal pre-selection offerings. Through the SWISS Culinary Journey on swiss.com/menu and in the SWISS app, guests can explore their flight’s food and beverage offerings in advance and select their preferred main course. Those who pre-order their meal are guaranteed to receive their chosen main course on board.
Since 2022, passengers in SWISS First and SWISS Business have been able to access Pre-Select and a wide selection of meals. Since December 2025, travelers in SWISS Premium Economy are also able to pre-select from three meals. SWISS reports growing demand, with the airline reporting it receives approximately 1,000 pre-orders every day. The bestseller is the Zürcher Geschnetzelte, which has been selected nearly 42,000 times to date.
SWISS Business Clsas passengers also benefit from Pre-Select on short-haul flights. For example, on routes such as Zurich-Düsseldorf or Zurich-London, where there is no menu selection on board, SWISS Business Class guests can choose from up to eight meals online every day.
SWISS Economy passengers on short-haul flights can also pre-order their preferred dish from the SWISS Saveurs menu. This entitles them to a 10 percent discount off the original price.
