Switzerland shines in summer with luxury and outdoor adventure: ride the Glacier Express, hike car-free Zermatt beneath the Matterhorn, or relax at a spa overlooking emerald lakes. Swiss trains run like clockwork, making it easy to explore towns like Interlaken and Montreux without renting a car. Swiss currently has excellent business-class award availability to Zurich (ZRH) throughout 2026, including popular summer dates, and some flights are on the new Airbus A350 featuring the Swiss Senses product.
