Swiss is looking for godparents for its first A350
The name «Lausanne» is already emblazoned on the fuselage of SWISS’s first Airbus A350-900. For the traditional aircraft christening this fall, the airline is now looking for a godmother or godfather from the general public. Creative people with a passion for travel can apply starting now.
This is a rare opportunity: SWISS fans can now apply to sponsor SWISS's first Airbus A350-900. The person selected, together with a well-known personality, will officially christen the aircraft with the name "Lausanne" after its arrival in Zurich.
SWISS is looking for people with a special passion for flying and travel for this honorable task. The first A350 presents itself in a special livery with the name "SWISS Wanderlust" and thus carries the diversity of Switzerland out into the world.
Anyone who wants to become a godparent should show their own "wanderlust" in a short video - be it the special view during a flight, emotional moments when reuniting with loved ones or personal travel stories. You can apply by posting a short video on Instagram with the hashtag #MyWanderlustMoment. You must tag @flyswiss and make your profile public. Participation is possible until September 14.
The special design of the Airbus A350-900 presents architectural buildings, famous sights and traditional sporting and cultural events in Switzerland. Each illustration highlights a particular aspect of the country and focuses on landscapes, people and culture. SWISS has ordered a total of ten Airbus A350-900s, which will be delivered by 2031. The new SWISS Senses cabin awaits guests on board these aircraft.
