What happened
SWISS Air Lines announced it will phase out its in-flight duty-free sales effective September 30, 2026, citing changing passenger behavior where travelers research and buy products online before boarding. The airline will integrate its duty-free assortment into the Miles & More Worldshop for digital purchasing. From June 2026, selected items will be offered at reduced prices (starting at 25% off) while stocks last. The current onboard catalog remains valid until the end of September. Other onboard retail, such as the 'SWISS Saveurs' food and beverage concept, remains unaffected. Additionally, the limited-edition Breitling 'Navitimer B01 Chronograph 46 SWISS Limited Edition' pilot's watch will remain available on selected long-haul routes until the end of September, with pre-orders available via the Worldshop
