If a female Australian visitor meets a female Swiss business contact for the first time in Switzerland?


Travel Info
- would a handshake be ok as part of the initial greeting? Or would the air-borne cheek kisses be expected?

Travel Tips
you never met the person..... how can you do a air-borne cheek kisses.
and business is business,,,,,handshake is the only way.
Others
handshake would be a better way
Handshake is more likely to be at that point,, if the relation was stronger it would reach the cheek kisses.
a handshake is better. a kiss is a bit too much. maybe when (if) u become friends then a kiss is ok
Handshake is appropriate.
that depends on the relationship and the feeling that you have established to the telephone or for email. I, often, to the arrival salute with one handshake, when we dismiss ourselves comes spontaneous to kiss us on the cheek.
In Switzerland are used 3 kisses
A handshake under these circumstances would be appropriate, like the guy said business is business.
