Lufthansa still exists you know Maybe you wanted to say that you miss fliying on it or spot it's aircraft and in that case there is no need for saying that you ''loved'' it, as you can still love it
Very good review, thanks. Looks like a great economy class experience. It seems to me as though Lufthansa is one of the very few airlines who are maintaining a high standard these days. I do not travel much, but read lots of trip reports, and it seems as though Lufthansa comes out near the top on most of them. Cheers, Carl
Wow that was one long transfer to start off with from T8 to TBIT and you used the air side connector. The outdoor terrace on the lounge is a real nice touch, great for LA weather. Parked right next to the A380 at TBIT, its great seeing all the A380's line up at LAX in the afternoon. I enjoyed this report, thanks for posting.
A tip: always pre order your meal from the vegetarian/vegan/gluten free/whatever options. You will be served first and then be able to use the lavatory while everybody else is tucking into their meals. Never fails.
we have been flying with lufthansa for last 45 years and enjoyed every minute of the flight until last few years that was the harshest and most difficult of all. The flight and the attendants were wonderful, the food was always the same on outbound and inbound. We got tired of eating chicken or pasta. At The Frankfurt air port we had to climb the stairs to go to the second floor in order to airport . On our flight from frankfurt to Hanover we also had to descend the stairs to ride the bus and clim the stairs to the plane like 60 years ago. No option for disable people. On the flight from frankfurt to u.s , the electric car driver was so rough and unfriendly that it reminded me of a prison keeper. In Hanover airport, the wheel chair lady was missing in action. Last year again in Frankfurt airport the inspectors were very rough , impolite, argumentive, dry, unpleasant. The air line checking agent refused to print a flight boarding card even though I explained that the automated machine refused to recognize my new passport due to a pick pockets in Madrid , she refused to do it until we walked to section 336 kiosk.. I love lufthansa but will not go to frankfurt airport any more.
it is TRUE! In my experience, Lufthansa was great, the food, the seats, service, entertainment, etc. too. But the problem is when you arrive in Frankfurt for a connection, if you have to change terminals say from A to C, you have to go down and then up two flights of stairs TWO times, which when you take into account how tired you are and also, if you have hand luggage or are in a hurry, is very unpleasant! There is ONE elevator, but you have to wait a long time for it. And my experience is from 2019. Also, the security check is quite stressful as there are a lot of people in a very small space, and as much as they try, they cannot make this a pleasant experience.
Ahah that airport car at 4:58 is airside_eric! That is his Instagram name, he works at LAX and takes great videos from the tarmac. Definitely recommend him!
I get to fly this exact route on June 23rd, I needed to watch this to see if it would be nice and now this is going to be the longest 13 days of my life im so exited 😂😖
When economy on an international airline is better than first on a domestic line, you know something's wrong with domestic airlines. Seriously, I regularly fly Delta First Class and United First Class and it's still nowhere near as nice as Luthansa Economy. And heck, _United is in the same alliance!!!_
VestedUTuber International Airlines are usually always better because they fly international and they take a long time so they put in flight entertainment systems on international airplanes, but on domestic flights, they are sometimes very short so usually only business class and first have in flight entertainment systems on domestic flights.
Great report, amandeuce. I really like the tip about the 2-4-2 configuration instead of 3-3-3. So a family of 4 is perfect for either the 4 across or the 2-2. They should take the upstairs. Plus, the extra storage is huge. It makes life much easier. Although it's not business class, it makes the trip to Europe from the West coast more tolerable. Good video! Thanks.
I've had the bulkhead seat on the upper deck LH A380 economy on a long haul overnight flight. Best seats in all of the economy class, unrestricted legroom and a very quiet cabin.
It’s aight. Upper deck economy front row is legit the best seat on the plane except that there is a flashing light on the exit sign but otherwise it is goood
I had to giggle a little when the band around that button came off, I thought, oops, there go your Free Mileage allotment for the year to replace it. Just kidding and being silly. It looked like a beautiful and uneventful flight.
I always flew Air France or KLM to Europe (unless there was no other option but to fly one of the U.S. carriers.) But on my last trip, I flew Lufthansa for the first time -- Washington-Dulles to Frankfurt --- and I have to say, the service far surpassed my expectations. Outside some of the Asian airlines, it was easily the nicest flight I'd ever been one. I love AF and KLM and their service has always been great, but Lufthansa took it to another level. Maybe I just got lucky on this flight, but from what I understand, my experience was pretty standard.
Just did the same flight. Great experience Pros: - You get to fly the biggest mofo on earth right now. And it's not gonna be there for long cause Airbus announced they'll stop making it. They don't get orders anymore. - Tickets were relatively cheap (€680 per person/2 way) - Decent food - My son got treated with playing cards. We gained another hour playing - Loved the staff, very caring. Not some clichéed super top models, but really caring everyday people. - You get to fly over Greenland (though you'll never get to see it at 40k feet :/ ) - Tail & bottom cams ROCK. Cool feature. Cons - Entertainment system got stuck (in both flights). AND IT WASN'T ME. You have to be really kind to it and let it respond. Gentle touches - Very loooong flight (but there's nothing you can do about it since teleporting has not been invented yet) Suggestions: - Avoid wing seats! This mofo's wings are humongous! You won't get to see anything. During return flight (LAX > FRA) we sat at the back, but felt more turbulence when we were about to enter Ireland. - Don't mess around with the entertainment system. Especially: DO NOT PLAY ANY OF ITS GAMES. It will get stuck and you will have to wait until they hard-reset it. I waited for an hour for this - DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT pay for fly-net (on board wifi). IT DOESN'T WORK. I threw 29 euros down the river Overall it was an AMAZING experience. Wtg Lufthansa.
10:00 ... errr ... I think your map was stuck over the Republic of Ireland, not Britain. You were about to fly over Dunfanaghy ! Great video, I so enjoyed it, the lounge looked amazing, as did your food and flight. You just got another subscriber :)
KuiperIOn - First of all the map was stuck over Donegal, which is located in the Republic of Ireland (if you look at a map it's that county that is directly West of Derry. Second, of all the term Britain refers to Great Britain, which is England, Scotland and Wales. That's why the official name of the UK is 'United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'.
Another great report Amandeuce! Definitely love that small economy section on the upper deck, I always chose that as well when flying the AF A380. Looks like you had a great flight, the food looks good as well. Thanks again Brendan
You're lucky you're only 5'10", I'm 6'3"and in economy the leg-room is always bad regardless of the airline. Nice video though and thanks for uploading it.
Big Valley u need to get the front row seats towards the cockpit...Unfortunately, u are not of normal size, u are not on their radar when they build those planes...
Excellent Loris. Sometimes when I'm sitting in The staff restaurant I will often look to see what's close on FlightRadar 24 I sometimes see LH"s A380 heading to LAX. That lounge looked great...The TBT looks fabulous now after they done it all out. I see you're nearly hitting 30,000 subs...fantastic when you take in account how many people upload flights now. Anyway hope you're fit and well.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am flying to Frankfurt later this year and I'm super nervous. I made the mistake of looking at airline reviews. They seem to be all bad!
12:07 "Frankfurt am Main". This is the first and oldest A380 in Lufthansa fleet. Delivered May 2010. Showing her aging electronics;)!
Dan Shelton so the 747-8 and 747-4 is better?
That looks really nice. My understanding is that Lufthansa is one of the best/safest airlines available.
Patricia DelMercado I flew Lufthansa A380 economy from Houston, Texas to Frankfurt and can agree with you!
Qantas
Patricia DelMercado ba is the best mate
Oliver Weightman ???
Patricia DelMercado Lufthansa is the absolute best European airline. I won't fly anything else on this route.
This is the kind of videos that help me to chase my fear of flying :D your video is just amazing! You did a great job!!
You shouldn't be afraid there is a very low chance they crash just think about it
Same
Miss this airline I loved it so much the good memories
Lufthansa still exists you know
Maybe you wanted to say that you miss fliying on it or spot it's aircraft and in that case there is no need for saying that you ''loved'' it, as you can still love it
A380 returned

Really enjoyable video, a lovely insight to flying economy on the A380. Thank you for sharing.
Keira Bullock lmao I’m flying to Germany tomorrow on the same airline
Amandeuce is the "Heartthrob in the Sky"
what does he look like?
Flyinghow He's a higly modified human being. In other words, I have no idea.
Brilliant work! Keep it up!
wdym
After this ( *RAYANER* ) landing, I think I heard someone shouting OOF at 10:45 lmao. No joke 😂😂😂
10:18 If you look close enough you could see the house I'm living in
Nice house. Is that your cat? So cute.
PEG I love you garden ❤️ ... need some tips on getting mine to look that good!!
WHahaha
The Broke Engineer is HILARIOUS!!! hahahahaha
which house
You never go wrong with Lufthansa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recently flew Lufthansa FRA-DEN on a 747-400 and was able to pick a roomy window seat in the rear of the plane where the last 3 rows were 2-4-2.
8:42 at first i read it as "Avoid Entertainment System" :)
4:46 always makes me home sick when travelling....the mighty Koru on the tail..
Nice preview of my future flight, thanks
Wow that was one long transfer to start off with from T8 to TBIT and you used the air side connector. The outdoor terrace on the lounge is a real nice touch, great for LA weather.

but do i want vegetarian?
@@amandeuce true but then you are stuck longer with all the containers and leftovers on your open tray table.
😂

Thank you for the AWESOME review. I'm looking into booking Lufthansa for spring of 2019 to Munich. I'm thoroughly impressed.
When I flew from New York to somewhere in Germany (I forget) in economy they gave us hot towels!
i hope you had a wonderful experience flying lufthansa!! that will be my airline of choice when flying to europe...
Fantastic review really gives us a feel for what its like well done you.
It's been too long since I rode on Lufthansa. ah, memories.
Ahah that airport car at 4:58 is airside_eric! That is his Instagram name, he works at LAX and takes great videos from the tarmac. Definitely recommend him!
I know him
TARMAC
In 2 days, I'm taking this flight ✈ from LA to IRAN & is my 1st time with lufthansa! Your clip was surly very helpful & I thank you for that ! 😉👍
I get to fly this exact route on June 23rd, I needed to watch this to see if it would be nice and now this is going to be the longest 13 days of my life im so exited 😂😖

Food is free or need to pay money plzz answer biggest doubt in my life
Food aboard Lufthansa flights is free @Google Google
First class on those little jets aren't really first class
its free
10:37
no bow to the queen = rough landing
Queen
Lol...🤣🤣
Worth a second viewing! Thanks.
I did the same flight Panama - Frankfurt and Lufthansa is so great, my first experience with Lufthansa and I loved it.
So smooth
Someday, I hope I can fly in A380! Everyone needs a dream.
Awesome video! Nice to see Lufthansa using metal cutlery in economy class :D
Very cool video! Thanks for posting.
Great report, amandeuce. I really like the tip about the 2-4-2 configuration instead of 3-3-3. So a family of 4 is perfect for either the 4 across or the 2-2. They should take the upstairs.

98K, had no idea seat rows could go up so high. On the other hand, window seats are nice on the upper deck with the storage on the side :)
We were in the Star Alliance Lounge in February. It is very nice. Only downside was that it was raining and we couldn't use the outside terrace.
Last Sunday I have visited Germany in this flight ✈️ really I liked it way of treating punctuality
I like the background hit.
3:48 only the Upper deck
Just booked a flight from London Heathrow to Calgary with Lufthansa. Glad to hear a positive review, looking forward to it now.
how was it?
awesome one. waiting for More!!
That looks good for economy I have been there before and I always go on business class
8:31 I like how Germans spell those counties like that
Great video! I didn't know Lufthansa had a small economy section on the upper deck... it looks nice! :D
Wow! Looks awesome. I will love flying on a Lufthansa airbus a380 one day :)
What an awesome video. I felt like I was there!
I've had the bulkhead seat on the upper deck LH A380 economy on a long haul overnight flight. Best seats in all of the economy class, unrestricted legroom and a very quiet cabin.
Wie immer ! Daumen hoch !
Lufthansa Fan lol
I flew this exact route on A380 in 2017!
VERY NICE VIDEO !! THANK YOU !!
Sweet trip , thank you for sharing this adventure
It’s aight. Upper deck economy front row is legit the best seat on the plane except that there is a flashing light on the exit sign but otherwise it is goood
Arrived at LAX 5 hours before my flight...I took 25 minutes to check-in and boarding😂
Lufthansa is soooo wonderfull. Great staff, good food and very comfy..prefer them over my HOME airline KLM
Just booked a 12 hour flight on the upper deck. Thanks for confirming that this was the right choice :D
An outdoor lounge! That's nice.
I had to giggle a little when the band around that button came off, I thought, oops, there go your Free Mileage allotment for the year to replace it. Just kidding and being silly. It looked like a beautiful and uneventful flight.
Lufthansa ❤️
I flew Lufthansa and loved it. Great airline. We even had a missed landing and had to divert due to a storm. Minor inconvenience
Oh no!
What a coincidence,i am flying from Frankfurt to Delhi next month and will be in that exact seat
Excellent choice the upstair eco cabin, same product as on BA. Just the IFE box take away some space but never flown a plane as quiet as this A380
You flew Lufthansa oldest Airbus a 380.
I always flew Air France or KLM to Europe (unless there was no other option but to fly one of the U.S. carriers.) But on my last trip, I flew Lufthansa for the first time -- Washington-Dulles to Frankfurt --- and I have to say, the service far surpassed my expectations.

Mal wieder ein wirklich schöner Report! Hat mir sehr gefallen! VG aus München

Great video, I so enjoyed it, the lounge looked amazing, as did your food and flight. You just got another subscriber :)
I do apologize for my lack of knowledge :)
Your knowledge is ace, just like your videos :))

It was Northern Ireland, in The United Kingdom
KuiperIOn - First of all the map was stuck over Donegal, which is located in the Republic of Ireland (if you look at a map it's that county that is directly West of Derry. Second, of all the term Britain refers to Great Britain, which is England, Scotland and Wales. That's why the official name of the UK is 'United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'.
I flew on qatar airways' a380 last year, I had the same seat, it's more comfortable than the rest of the economy seats.
Excellent. Thanks for the ride. Cheers.
BETTER THAN BRITISH PREMIUM ECONOMY BUT ALL AIRLINES SHOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION ON ECONOMY AT ALL
Such a massive wing!
Haha at 8:45 it looked like you were saying "avoid entertainment section" Great video! 👍🏼
Magluluto nlang ako tas saing sabay chi cha 😁😁 🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️ ginutom lng ako!
Another great report Amandeuce! Definitely love that small economy section on the upper deck, I always chose that as well when flying the AF A380. Looks like you had a great flight, the food looks good as well.
Thanks again
Brendan
good job! enjoyed it :-) my last long haul flight with lufthansa is a long time ago, but it looks like nothing changed.
The ONLY I went on this airline the flight the flight attendants always assumed I spoke German when serving food.
Hope I can fly with Lufthansa airbus one more time or more 😍
Good work!
James Asquith also shares his experience in his recent video. James create the funniest aviation video!
I broke the recline button too on a A380 of .British Airways from Lax to LHR
11:21 what and awesome clip!
You're lucky you're only 5'10", I'm 6'3"and in economy the leg-room is always bad regardless of the airline. Nice video though and thanks for uploading it.
Big Valley u need to get the front row seats towards the cockpit...Unfortunately, u are not of normal size, u are not on their radar when they build those planes...
I love Lufthansa....that’s the only airline I use went I go to Poland
Love the music!
Love you Lufthansa ❤
funny seeing Canada spelled as Kanada on the map tracking system. I've never had a rough landing when flying the A380. Nice video.
germans spell it like that!
It's been about 12 years since I flew that route. The food and amenities have degraded badly.
Great video!!!
j'adore cette vidéo
Excellent Loris. Sometimes when I'm sitting in The staff restaurant I will often look to see what's close on FlightRadar 24 I sometimes see LH"s A380 heading to LAX.

made it to 30'000 now ;) hope all is well
Amandeuce I never swear but...That is fucking awesome. Congratulations Loris.
Lufthansa and Klm are my favorite airlines because they are always consisting
nice review,,, i like ur grey pants and grey nike shoes.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am flying to Frankfurt later this year and I'm super nervous. I made the mistake of looking at airline reviews. They seem to be all bad!
Great video Amandeuce!
Great review Loris!
Looking forward to the Business Class review next week.
its online! :)
I always hate salads but every time I get some on Lufthansa or Condor, I eat em all... have to do with some secret German recipes
Greetings from Montenegro! Very nice trip, keep it up, well done!
Excellent report!
Cool video
Nice trip report, tx!
