Dust in the box creates problems: EX-SNB President Hildebrand draws attention at door control

Former National Bank President Philipp Hildebrand (60) caused a stir at Zurich Airport on Sunday evening. The aircraft, flight number LX18, was ready to depart on time for Newark. However, the plane took off late.

Because Hildebrand and his friend were stopped at the security check. Reason: a box of white powder. Beware of vitamin powder! An eyewitness told financial blog Inside Paradeplatz: Hildebrand refused to carry the carry-on luggage in accordance with security regulations. “Unfortunately, a great drama ensued and Philipp Hildebrand and his friend showed no understanding,” the online article says.

“All things are well that ends well”

Hildebrand himself seems to take it all in a relaxed manner. According to the former SNB chairman, the box of vitamin powder in his hand during the security check at the gate prompted longer questions from the Swiss. As usual when traveling to the USA, there is an additional security check at the gate. “All’s well that ends well,” Hildebrand wrote in a text message to Lukas Hässig (59), editor-in-chief of “Inside Paradeplatz”. Vitaminpulver and I boarded the ship happily and as planned, and we are both in New York :): ), he wrote.

The Swiss plane took off from Kloten ZH with a delay of one hour and twelve minutes. Annoying for all other passengers in the wooden class. The Airbus A330 arrived in Newark 25 minutes late. The machine was able to catch up a bit along the way. Hildebrand probably would have been better informed if she had packed the vitamin powder in her bag instead of as carry-on luggage. (kae)
