This development was largely dictated by the current (stupid?!) restrictions placed on air travel items.
Also in partnership with the Apple company, Victorinox introduced an additional three USB Flash Drive models of the Jetsetter, which were sold in Apple stores, however these models are now withdrawn - see below for details.
There is also a more recent model, the Jetsetter@Work, that contains a USB drive.

Introduced in 2012 into the premiums market for the non-flash drive versions, but later became generally available.
The exclusive deal with the Apple flash-drive models was announced in November 2012.
