Review: Lufthansa 747-8 Business Class Frankfurt to Los Angeles
Lufthansa is an excellent airline in so many ways, but misses the mark when it comes to longhaul business class. While there was nothing glaringly wrong with my 11-hour flight from Frankfurt to Los Angeles, there was also nothing...
Three Filet Mignons in 24 Hours on Lufthansa
One of the joys of Lufthansa’s first class lounges are the excellent dining choices in Munich and Frankfurt. I’ve written before about enjoying a filet mignon for breakfast in the Lufthansa First Class Terminal in Frankfurt. A filet with...

Review: Lufthansa CityLine CRJ-900 Business Class Milan to Frankfurt
After a two-hour delay, I was happy to board the flight and get to Frankfurt. It would be my first time flying the Lufthansa CityLine CRJ-900. The boarding gate appeared empty, but when boarding was called it took mere moments...
Review: Lufthansa Lounge Milan (MXP)
At 6pm, this lounge was far more crowded than the gate area. Then again, the gate area does not have a nice selection of complimentary food and drink. So choose your poison. I was flying from Milan Malpensa (MXP)...

Good evening from from LA. It was a relatively quiet week with the exception of a short business trip to the Pacific Northwest. This week should also be quiet. Here’s a review of the week’s top stories on the...
Review: Lufthansa A321 Business Class Frankfurt to Milan
The fun on this flight was more the ride to the plane and the views out the window. That will be the focus of this brief report of Lufthansa Business Class aboard the A321-200 from Frankfurt (FRA) to Milan...
Review: Lufthansa A380 First Class Houston to Frankfurt
My recent flight from Houston to Frankfurt was one of the worst Lufthansa First Class flights of my life. It truly was. But I also must add it was not just fine, but a good flight overall. Read on...
Eat Like An Astronaut on Lufthansa This Summer
You remember eating that freeze-dried “space” food growing up? When I was a kid, that was a big gimmick. Well, space food is back…on an airplane. If you’re flying Lufthansa Business Class this summer, you’ll have the option of...
Introduction: Two Countries, Six Flights on Lufthansa
Welcome to my next trip report, a multi-part series recapping my trip to Germany and Italy last week. This one won’t be road trip-style like my earlier Italy trip report. Instead, I’ll focus on the flights and a couple...
My Lufthansa 747-8 Business Class Flight Was Disappointing
Whenever I fail to offer a glowing review of a business class product, it seems the following disclaimer is necessary: context matters. There is no question that Lufthansa Business Class aboard the 747-8, offering a lie-flat bed, enhanced service...

It’s a beautiful summer evening in Los Angeles and I’ve spent the day with family and friends. My thanks to Kyle and Carly for giving me the chance to take a break on Sundays. Over the last week, we’ve...
Lufthansa Fails Me, But Recovers Beautifully
Oh Lufthansa. Sometimes I should just listen to my gut and not the ground staff. My flight home from Frankfurt was booked via Munich because I just prefer the A380 (operating from Munich to Los Angeles) over the A340...
A Free Upgrade On Lufthansa…Just For Asking
I recently wrote about a free business class upgrade on Emirates…just for asking. Now I have another chapter to add to that story, this time on Lufthansa. John and I were traveling from Milan Malpensa to Frankfurt last week....
Home Sweet Home On The Lufthansa A380 In First Class
I recently had to take a last-minute trip to Italy and award space just wasn’t opening. Absolutely nothing from Los Angeles in economy, business, or first class unless I wanted to pay ridiculous rates on Air France, Delta, or...
Watching The World Cup Live On Lufthansa
If you are following the World Cup this year, Saturday’s match between Germany and Sweden was quite a game. I watched it live…on a Lufthansa flight. That itself was a sight to be behold. Last week I was in...
Full Lunch on 35-Minute Lufthansa Flight
Yesterday, I flew Lufthansa from Frankfurt to Munich in order to catch a longhaul home to Los Angeles. Expecting a light snack, I was surprised when a hearty meal was served…on a 35-minute (wheels up to wheels down) domestic...
