SWISS to take at least 12 CSeries in 2017
SWISS, which took delivery of its fifth Bombardier CS100 Dec 30, 2016—expects to receive a minimum of 12 CS100s, as well as the larger CSeries variant CS300, in 2017. “We expect to receive at least 1 CSeries aircraft every month in 2017,” a SWISS spokesperson said. She added that for several months 2 aircraft [per month] will be delivered. the spokesperson could not detail how many total CSeries aircraft besides the 12 expected ones will be added to the fleet this year, “but we still plan to have all 30 aircraft by 2018,” she said. SWISS’s first CS300 is expected to arrive in Q2 2017 and will be based in Geneva. The CS300 should enable SWISS to deliver a more cost-efficient operation at Geneva. SWISS originally ordered 20 CS100s and 10 CS300s, plus 30 options. It will convert 5 of 20 CS100 orders into CS300s. <br/>
