  • Taking a flight on @LOTairlines B787-9 flight from Warsaw to Chicago (and a LHR-WAW connecting flight). The 787 might feature the airline's best Business Class product, but after spending £1800 return, how does this lower-cost lesser-known product stack up on this flight review?
    Considering LOT Business Class often comes up cheaper than its European counterparts, was i going to experience a basic product or could it beat my expectations. While the seat has its shortcomings, its still comfortable, but what about the food, service and amenities?
    Have you flown LOT's business class cabin? Do you like the seat, and what about the service, amenity kits and food? Let us know your thoughts of your flight below!

    This is what you called hospitality ! Maybe the product is not so good but the crew make you feel like you are in five star Arline ! I also enjoying Lot crew on my flight

      Exactly. I'd pick an older seat and a great crew over a fancy seat and bad crew. Both have to work in harmony to create an excellent customer experience.

      I disagree!!
      When flying Business Class I pay for privacy, comfort and a 1-2-1 configuration!
      No service can make up for a crappy Business Class cabin and/or seat!

    I love the attention to detail in the meal service. I always think that sets a carrier apart from the competition. Thank you for filming this!

    Quite a lot of people say that LOT is outdated wich the seat is. But the experience is not.
    Other airlines might have a better seat. Buts it’s the crew that counts.
    Evrytime I have have flown LOT in economy and business it’s been amazing.

      I totally agree. I flew LOT to Warsaw and United Polaris back to US. The LOT Business seats are not very private especially compared to Polaris but had enough storage and comfort, just no privacy. The service on LOT was great. The selection. the attentiveness. My dad couldn't decide on desert "well we'll just bring you both sir" On my Polaris trip my trash was accumulating. They did not pick up dirty dishes and cups for hrs. I wanted an after dinner drink which was offered on LOT (cognac) but on United I had to go to the galley to ask and they didn't have any. Maybe it's just a polish thing. I live in DC so it wasn't very convenient to catch a LOT flight but I would definitely find a way to fly their business class again. Polaris was disappointing and twice the price,

    Flew them this last summer and thought the service was excellent compared to other star carriers, genuinely welcoming and well intentioned. Fantastic vlog as always !!

    • @thedesignairvideo
      @thedesignairvideo  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much for the kind comments. I agree, other carriers should take note. It was clear it was a service design standard, not just a single excellent crew.

  • @johngilchrist543

    IMHO LOT is underrated. I’ve flown them regionally and across the Atlantic and have always enjoyed the experience. While the meals may not be to everyone’s likely, I find them well prepared and representative of Polish cuisine. Another great review 👍👍

    This was a great review. As a travel agent who flies all around the world and a lot of people don't believe that I'm afraid to fly. To hear a review from an actual pilot makes me feel comforted. So I will look to follow and check out more of your flight reviews.👍🏾

    Thank you for opening my eyes to the LOT product; I know now that - if somewhat dated (which I don't mind) - I would really enjoy the experience.
    By the way, I like the idea of dimming the windows for the flight safety presentation. It encourages passengers to pay attention!

    • @thedesignairvideo
      @thedesignairvideo  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a fun way of making people watch it for sure. And yes, i don't mind a dated product as long as it's comfortable, and glad it's opened your eyes, i was surprised as well when i flew them! Happy i can share my experience.

  • @ajitgeorgekuruvilla7384

    LOT Polish Airlines has onboard service. Most passengers are pleasantly surprised. Great aircraft from Boeing 787s, 737s and Embraers.

    I read that LOT will offer a brand new business class seat in the next few years. Hopefully, it can compete with other European airlines.

    Great review, I was wondering what LOT would be like, and if it could be an alternative to LH, if there are good deals available.
    Looks like they have a decent soft product.

  • @thomasmooreCQ
    @thomasmooreCQ ปีที่แล้ว

    That kind of business class seat may've been fine when the 787 first came out. But it's time for an improvement. Though I'd chose this over LH's current offering or BA's previous business class seat or what UA has on some of their 777s .

  • @paul.martens
    @paul.martens ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Sure, the hard product wide body featured here is dated, but how is that any different from the vast number of Lufthansa business 2-2-2 craft configurations 😢
    Great review as always.

    • @thedesignairvideo
      @thedesignairvideo  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks so much Paul, yes i agree and it's a shame that smaller carriers like this can launch a new product in a matter of years while we've been waiting so long for the new Lufthansa product.

  • @CHGMANCHG
    @CHGMANCHG 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    LOT Polish Airlines charged me business class ZED while I downgraded to Economy Class because premium cabins checked in full. I never got the downgrade refund flying Warsaw to Chicago. LOT Polish Airlines needs to upgrade the ZED ticketing system for other airline staff. SAS and Finnair have the downgrade refund feature that if you list Business Class ZED and get only economy class, you will immediately get a downgrade refund.

    dude, a quick question …. assuming you were flying out of US, how was preTSA (when going via security at that US airport)working for you?
    LOT is toooo cheap to get into this program…. i hope you were not connecting via JetBlue ….
    comments?

    @0:53 what do you mean the LH lounge in LHR is inferior? They have Do+Co catering, self-serve booze including shelf whiskeys, and a coke machine. The Senator area is the same but less riff-raff. LH is truly the best second best lounge in T2 after the SG lounge (1.5 mile walk away each direction), UA is fantastic but catering is inferior to LH, and we all know AC is glorified arctic carbon-tax DEI lesbian garbage fire. What is the best lounge in LHR for you?

    'Which customer you are, service you find'.
    LOT Business Class is Business Class by Poland.
    It is a service for £1800, Warsaw to Chicago.
    Then, from Poland to the USA, 95% are people who cannot spend €5,000
    They carry food in the hold, in bags.

    Because of gluttony.
    It amazes me that people have to eat so much and so often on a single flight.

    just one more Airline Blogger .... Flying is not about Food and Service, it’s about Security and arriving Safe at your destination and on Time. I Cross the Atlántic 3 times a month for business in business class since 2008 and my main concern is safety and punctuality . For good service , charter your private jet !
