Sneak peek at the SWISS A350 in final assembly!

Today we’re back in Toulouse with Airbus and SWISS to visit the brand new A350 taking shape for the flag carrier in the Final Assembly Line. This aircraft will be number two (the first is already painted and awaiting application of its very special “Wanderlust” livery). We’ve got a sneak peak of that livery in the video as well so make sure to watch to the end!

That means we’ve got a very fun tour of the place where A350s get made, an up-close visit with the Swiss aircraft itself including standing up on the rigging next to the vertical stabilizer with signature red cross, and we hear about some of what goes into creating these magnificent birds. We’ll be back in late summer to take one of the first flights on the new Swiss A350 and experience first hand the new Swiss Senses cabin and inflight product, which looks like it will be impressive indeed.
