It was one of the best flights I’ve ever had

[@ZRHTrainspotter]

Nice to hear! My best flights were on Turkish Airlines and Emirates. I hope you enjoyed the video! 😊

Great trip report! Went to Zurich Airport once last year and it was a very beautiful airport!

[@ZRHTrainspotter]

Thank you. ZRH is beautiful airport but also very disorganized security check :(

[@IshrionAviation]

ZRH Trainspotter Agreed. I missed out on the observation deck because the train and customs took quite a long time...

ZRH Trainspotter thank for the video I’ve flew from Rio to Zurich with WK. but I really not understand the problem with the security in Zurich. I pass it trough a lot of time per year and I can suggest you to see how is it in Basel Geneva or Lisbonne. Bye the way how do you find it in Rio ?

[@ZRHTrainspotter]

Well, in Rio the security is WAY better than in ZRH :)

Its HB-JHR and not HB-JHQ on your Flight!

Tarek is right look at 3:07 there you can see the name “Chäserrugg” below the cockpit window. This is the name of “HB-JHR”

Hey there, I'm a former Edelweiss flight attendant. Just to dispel any doubts: It must've been HB-JHR, which at the time featured an additional fuel tank that would allow it to fly the 10k kilometres from ZRH all the way to GIG. For HB-JHQ, which lacked an additional fuel tank, the nonstop service to GIG would've been out of range. :-) Lovely video though which brings about pre-pandemic memories. 🙂

Ok thank you! I wonder when the flight will resume
