Key Points
  • Swiss reported a 26.6% drop in operating profit to 502.2 million Swiss francs for 2025.
  • The decline highlights challenges from competition and costs, despite passenger and flight increases.
  • CEO Jens Fehlinger says Swiss must reduce costs and take countermeasures, but specifics are unknown.

5 billion Swiss francs. 6 percent increase compared to the previous year. 6 percent to over 143,000.

8 percentage points below the previous year's value. Flight schedule stability reached 98 percent with an increase of almost one percentage point. 3 percent over the year.

According to CEO Jens Fehlinger, these improvements are the result of targeted measures and a great commitment from Swiss employees. Fehlinger stated that 2025 was a year of contrasts for Swiss. He said Swiss invested strongly in its future with the A350, the new cabin, and SWISS Senses.

6 percent decrease in operating revenues have not been disclosed. Swiss has not specified what targeted countermeasures it will implement to address the decline in operating results.
