Route: Genève GVA, Suisse - Lugano LUG, Svizzera, 27 Sep 2005
Ticket price: 68 CHF (42 Euro) one way, taxes incl.
Flight duration: 0h 50m
Class: one class only
Aircraft: Saab 2000, HB-IZG named "Insubria"
Meal: Deluxe snack - Small cheese sandwich with a little tomato
Drink: Proseeco Brut served in a real glass
Comments: On my previous flight I got two sandwiches, but this time we got only one, as there was only one cabin attendant on board. But she did a great job, she offered a refill of champaign and brought cookies before landing. And all this on a 50 minutes (41 minutes flying time) domestic flight. A great way to fly. (However I prefered the branded refreshing towels, see picture 001).

Route: Lugano LUG, Svizzera - Genève GVA, Suisse, 5 Sep 2005
Ticket price: CHF 131 (+/- 85 Euro)
Flight duration: 1h 00m
Class: economy
Aircraft: Saab 2000, HB-IZH named "Ticino"
Meal: snack - One ham-cheese sandwich and one cheese sandwich
Drink: Darwin promotes wines from Southern Switzerland during these month. In their inflight magazine they provide nice information about those wines. I had a glass of Ticino DOC Merlot Tenuta Montalbano, 2002 which was delicious.
Comments: Flight: 18:30-19:15h LT
The sandwiches are quite simple, but very fine for a domestic flight with a real flying time of only 34 minutes. Before landing we got a little dessert. We got no refill, as the flying time between LUG and GVA is about 10 minutes less than GVA to LUG.
