The Lufthansa Business Class Airbus A319 cannot really be described as luxury. In most cases, Lufthansa Business Class is not worthwhile on short-haul flights within Europe due to the price-performance ratio. As the connecting flight of our Miles & More award ticket from Dubai, we flew the short-haul route from Frankfurt to Leipzig.
We spent a long time looking for a destination for our annual holiday. Bali and Washington D.C. were on the list. Due to the better availability of Miles & More award flights, we finally decided in favour of the United Arab Emirates. You can find out what our flight in Lufthansa Premium Economy in the Airbus A330 to Dubai was like in our flight review.
Last August, Robert from robisintheair.de asked me if I'd like to fly with him to San Francisco on SAS Go in an Airbus A340-300. At a price of just under €200, I didn't have to think twice before accepting. You can find out what service is offered on the 11-hour flight in SAS Economy Class in the following trip report.
Some may think I'm crazy to spend an afternoon on four flights during a relaxing holiday in Greece. Sure, for the majority there is no point in flying to the island of Chios for just 25 minutes. However, I need this mileage run with Aegean Airlines to extend my Star Alliance Gold frequent flyer status for another year.
For this year's annual holiday, we decided to visit the Midwest of the USA. In line with our travel plans, LOT Polish Airlines published an offer for Premium Economy to Chicago. Find out in the review to what extent LOT Premium Economy in the Boeing 787-9 is an insider tip on long-haul flights.
Germany in November: rain, fog and low temperatures. To escape these weather conditions, we started looking for a sunny destination quite early in February. The decision was quickly made in favour of the United Arab Emirates. On 3 November 2017, we flew to Dubai on a Boeing 747-400 in Lufthansa Economy Class.
Thanks to an error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class in the Boeing 777-300ER from Toronto to London in January 2017. In contrast to Business Class in the Airbus A330, the cabin in the Boeing 777-300ER is much more comfortable and meets the current standard. Find out in our trip report whether the new Executive Pod seats were also convincing.
Unlike Lufthansa, for example, Air Canada operates a proper Business Class on short and medium-haul routes. At the beginning of 2017, we flew from Seattle to Toronto and had plenty of time to relax in Air Canada Business Class in the Embraer ERJ-190.
Thanks to an error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class on an Airbus A330-300 from Munich to Toronto. Despite complications during boarding and an outdated Business Class seat, Air Canada still managed to impress us with its service and the quality of the food. You can find out how satisfied we were overall in this trip report.
A flight in Lufthansa Business Class sounds like comfort, first-class service, and a touch of luxury. But how good is the product really on short-haul flights in the Airbus A320? We tested the new Europa cabin on our flight from Oslo to Munich and discovered both its strengths and weaknesses. In this review, you'll find out whether an upgrade is worth it and what you can actually expect on board.
In July 2016, I was lucky enough to be on the maiden flight of Singapore Airlines' Airbus A350-900 from Düsseldorf. I have already written a detailed article about this. In this review, I would like to tell you what the return flight in the Singapore Airlines Business Class Airbus A350-900 from Singapore to Düsseldorf was like. There is also a brief insight into the First and Business Class SilverKris Lounge at Singapore Airport.
Once you have frequent flyer status, you want to defend it every year. I have had Star Alliance Gold status with the Greek airline Aegean Airlines for almost five years now. As we hardly travelled by plane this year due to the birth of our son in January, we had to do a mileage run to extend our status.
At 06:10 on 22 July 2016, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900 landed in the North Rhine-Westphalian state capital for the first time and was traditionally greeted with a water fountain. From now on, the renowned five-star airline will be connecting Düsseldorf Airport with its hub in Singapore three times a week non-stop. I was lucky enough to be on the inaugural Singapore Airlines Business Class flight in the Airbus A350-900 from Düsseldorf.
If you want to fly within Germany from Munich to Berlin, you used to fly with Air Berlin or Lufthansa. Since 30 May, the Dutch airline Transavia has joined the group. Unlike Lufthansa and Air Berlin, Transavia flies to Schoenefeld Airport twice a day. So I took the plunge and flew with Transavia Economy Class in the Boeing 737-800 to Berlin.
