Trip Report: Lufthansa B747-8 First Class Experience + First Class Terminal
I need to go to the U.S. to see my parents for the Chinese New Year. Lufthansa is deploying its B747-400 on Dubai to Frankfurt route so after weighing all flight options, I decided to fly Lufthansa because of the B747. The second sector from Frankfurt to Los Angeles is operated by B747-8, so I get both -400 and -8 on one single itinerary which is fantastic for a 747 fan! I used 75,000 Aegean Miles (Star Alliance Partner) for a mixed Business/First Class redemption. From Dubai to Frankfurt only Business Class is available. From Frankfurt to Los

Lufthansa First Class: Washington-Dulles to Frankfurt
This is the second post of my trip report, since the posts start from the beginning of the trip you’ll need to scroll down and read posts in reverse order. Or just take the post-modern approach and just dive into the middle! At check-in we had been given an invitation to the Virgin Clubhouse across from gate B-32. We were welcomed right in and I immediately decided that this small lounge (so small that the attendants really try to persuade you to leave your carryones in the closet area so as not to crowd the seating space) was the

Flight Report 100: Lufthansa MEX-FRA and my first 747-8
I think everyone’s favourite aircraft is still the Jumbo Jet, the 747, which was introduced in 1970 by Boeing. It revolutionised air travel. It looked beautiful and enhanced the romance and excitement of air travel. Am I right? It has been my firm favourite since I first boarded it as a child for a journey from Hong Kong to Sydney with the first user of the 747: Pan Am.(Photo by Eduard Marmet from Wikipedia) Fast-forward 53 years, and today only three airlines regularly fly the 747 as a passenger aircraft: Air China, Korean Air, and Lufthansa. Time felt like

Review: Lufthansa Economy Class, Boeing 747-8 Frankfurt to Los Angeles
This Lufthansa Economy Class flight review from Frankfurt to Los Angeles is the final installment of my trip to Morocco with G Adventures. No benefits or perks are provided for economy class passengers but Star Alliance Gold members are granted access to the Lufthansa Senator and Business Class Lounges. The Lufthansa Senator Lounge in Concourse Z is my favorite of all the Lufthansa lounges (minus the First Class Lounge/Terminal) and is always worth a visit before any departure. The lounge is spacious and offers the best food options and amenities for passengers. You can read my full review of the

Flight Review: Lufthansa First Class In The Pandemic Era
Today, I invite you for a ride onboard the Lufthansa 747-8 in first class from Los Angeles to Frankfurt. While we live in an unprecedented era of uncertainty, I am heartened that there is remarkable consistency in the Lufthansa first class product. While so many airlines have sacrificed their premium product under the guise of health precautions, Lufthansa has retained its remarkably superlative first class product even during the pandemic. Welcome aboard. For the winter 2020-21 season, Lufthansa is suspending all first class service from the United States. With the pandemic decimating demand, one can hardly blame Lufthansa for

3 aircraft I look forward to flying most
After a bunch of work travel last year that had me flying 737 after 737, I began to look forward to the few trips where I got to change things up a bit. Most notably, our return from Paris on Airbus’ biggest bird ( SEE: Air France A380 Economy Review: Paris to San Francisco), followed by my first time in a true premium economy product aboard a Cathay Pacific 777-300ER ( Since then, I’ve been back to flying mostly regional jets and 737s again (I do have to admit that a Bombardier Q400 recently was a nice change-up).
