Lufthansa

Flight Abu Dhabi-Frankfurt: new business class seats on this night flight an absolute improvement compared to the old seat that is still in use. Wish all Lufthansa long haul seats in this class were already installed! Service on board really friendly and chatty. Nice snack and aperitif after departure good breakfast 1 hour prior to arrival. Could have been served 15 mins earlier but at the same time crew allowed us to sleep longer. Inflight entertainment improved as well a lot. The map/route should have music in the background. The new seat is perfect to sleep completely flat. Amenity kit is a plus. Smooth flight and professional service. A330 10 years old but in perfect condition. Welcome lounge in Frankfurt a nice place to have a shower and another great breakfast after this night flight.

Flew CGN-MUC on a Saturday. Onward flight was nearly empty so you could seat any seat. Two drinks one coffee and one apple juice on a nice Airbus 321. Return flight on the same day was packed so all bins where overloaded. It took ages to board. Got drinks as well crew did a good job for a 55 minutes flight.

I travelled flight LH456 on Saturday 18th January from Frankfurt to Los Angeles. It was extremely cold on this plane due to some problems with the air-conditioning (seat 33H). Other passengers seated in rows in front of me were complaining as it was too hot on their seats! This must be a major problem and to be honest I was very dissatisfied with this situation. The flight attendants did a great job.

I fly Lufthansa a lot long distance. Overall a very solid impression mostly on time friendly and competent staff. Quality of meals has decreased in economy as has seat comfort but that is normal these days. Major complaint on LH456 (FRA-LAX) on a 747-8: The touch screen user experience was ridiculous some input takes 10-20 s to be processed. Not only the case in my seat but pretty much everyone I observed had this problem.

LH430 FRA-ORD Jan 20 2014 New 747-8. Seat comfort is inferior to most other airlines on this segment. Loyalty customer treatment (especially in regards to complimentary upgrades) is unacceptable seems non-existent all the way up to Senator (incl.) and might become real only with HON which is super exclusive. Food quality is average and staff attention in economy is also just average. Staff attention visibly improves from business class onwards. Inflight entertainment is a bad joke especially in economy as well as in any 'old' business or first class seat. Tiny monitors that are often defective. Fairly small movie selection. This is way behind the other airlines that LH wants to compete with. Economy seats in the new 747-8 are ok but seat comfort in the first economy aisle seat right behind business class is impacted by staff continuously pushing the blinds against the passengers legs.

Flight DUS-MUC in the evening. Short flight from DUS to MUC. Friendly staff free Drinks (water tea coffee wine bear soft drinks) and savory snacks. We left on time and reached MUC about 20 min early.

Frankfurt - Rio de Janeiro - Frankfurt with Lufthansa on A340. On time smooth decent hassle free and without any problems. Extremely friendly professional and attentive crew on both flights. Cocktails served after take off really nice dinner. Large movie selection on personal screens. 2-4-2 seats making it easier for a couple to sit together. Absolutely nothing to complain if there was not the seat itself: Narrow uncomfortable and one of the worst of all my flights. Unfortunately different from other airlines economy seats.

LH428. Positives: Smooth trip to U.S. Good service nice entertainment program nice food and drinks. To improve: Seat was in the last row of the plane and I didn't had so much space for my legs.

LH456 from Frankfurt to Los Angeles. The flight went smoothly and on time (arriving ahead of schedule). No complaints about the flight conditions and service except the performance of the information/entertainment system. The touch screen was not responding thus making the use impossible. I see two main problems - the system is outdated and not properly serviced. However this was a smaller problem for me compared with the failure of the promised Wi-Fi connection.

Frankfurt (FRA) to Washington Dulles (IAD) LH 418 on December 9 2013. Space comfort in economy class is not great there should be more space! The entertainment program quality was not great it appears to me that mainly only old films are shown in economy class not quite sure if this has something to do with cost savings. I don't understand the beverage concept of Lufthansa I wish there was more non alcoholic beer on board.
