Why should this airline be added?
Swissair deserves to be included in World of Airports because it’s a living part of aviation history. It represents an era when flying meant trust, elegance, and excellence. Bringing Swissair to the game isn’t just about adding an airline; it’s about giving soul to the airport, allowing the player to feel the weight of tradition and relive the charm of classic aviation that marked generations.

I did a small change to your title as the airline went bump in 2001 not 2012. Good suggestion my dude, love a mad dog.

I’m sorry, I typed and read too fast and didn’t even realize it, thank you for fixing it!!

Well with the announcement that Zurich is the next airport to come, I hope we get to see part of this airline within the update, maybe the 743 and MD-11 as pass aircraft, or potentially as we have the BA Negus B752 as a regular livery, could get a slue mixed in with current Swiss. For such an iconic airline with such an horrific, shocking downfall, read more here on my Sabena post and a bit more on Belair post, and for an airline so synonymous with Zurich, it would be great to see.

I’m also hoping that some SwissAir liveries will arrive, like you said, the B743 and the MD11. I’ve already seen your requests, they’re incredible!! I also hope that Sabena and Belair will be added to the game; I really liked both the paint schemes and the information.
