What has just happened between surgeon and airline employees remains unclear. Marco Lance is not aware of any indecent behavior.

We respect the court ruling, even if we don't see it confirmed in our legal opinion. We will now thoroughly review the decision and decide on the next steps “, a spokeswoman says.
But you can be sure that Swiss only takes into account serious cases to decide that a person for a certain time no longer has the opportunity to book flights with us”, the spokeswoman further stated.
