- Yaaaaaay its upload friday. How nice is that. So this is the almost finished description. It's 9.30pm and I have to get up tomorrow morning at 4.30, so I really have not much energy left to write a full description ;) Just some basic information: If you have ever flown on the A380 you know there is that stupid plastic glass about 5 cm before the real window, so no chance to put my gopro closer to that window. Talking about the gopro, once again I fluffed something up while recording it and all the images ended up in 4:3. Since I'm no hero in editing I have no idea how to change it to 16:9 if thats even possible, so I had to put them in like they are. I do apologize for that and will do better in the future! I hope you still enjoyed this review. BTW there will be no video release next friday since I'm applying for pilot at swiss intl and I've got my first "selection day" next friday and have to learn and repeat some maths and shit during the week :) but there will be one for sure in 2weeks!
So here's my opinion about the LH business class.
-Lounge in Houston: LH offers you complimentary access to an executive lounge in Houston, which is a very nice, cozy lounge with plenty of food, drinks and a bar. Seating is also nice but it can get really crowded since many other intercontinental airlines use that lounge aswell.. Biggest disappointment is the not existing coffee/espresso/capuccino machine. Otherwise its a very nice lounge!
-Check-in/boarding: Business class has got seperate check-in counters, prefered security control line and prefered boarding. Since this is an A380 and LH puts 92 business class seats in them you might not feel very privileged. But everything went smooth and there were no big problems
-Seat: The new LH business class seat is very nice. It's not the best I've been in but it's among the better seats. It's pretty comfortable, you've got plenty stowage possibilities and huge legroom. The big disappointment is the 2-2-2 layout with no direct aisle access. I was lucky and had an empty seat next to me. So much win. It's fully lie flat and the screen is huge. All in all a very nice seat.
-Service: The FA's did a great job. They really tried hard to make you feel welcome aboard, were very kind and helpful and even greeted you with your name. They try to give you a lot of attention but it's quite hard to serve 92 pax with an equal personal service. But all in all they did a good job. Food was pretty tasty too, I like how they had a mexican special menu. Not everything was german ;) The amount was good too and most of it was really fresh and tasted good!
-IFE: The screen as mentioned before is quite big and thats already a big plus. Theres a wide selection of movies, shows and games and a very nice map and information section. Unfortunately you can't tilt the screen so when lying flat it was hard to watch the movie, you had to sit up a little or move your head up to get a good view of the screen.
Arrival: FRA being one of the biggest airports was ok. LH tries to fit all their flights more or less in the same terminal(s), but thats still huge. If you connect through FRA make sure you've got +/ 2 hours, I had to walk a good 30 minutes from my arrival gate to my connecting gate, had to spend another 30 minutes in security and passport control. So always good to have a longer connection time. Otherwise Frankfurt is a really nice, modern and mostly state of the art airport with lots of shops, restaurants etc. It's very clean and well organized. The lounges in FRA though aren't great. I mean if you were the among some others it would be nice but those LH lounges are crowded!! Way too small to handle all the premium customers. I've been to those lounges a couple of times now and everytime there were just too many people, no matter which lounge. If you get a seat its nice and the food and drink selection is nice too..IMO LH should open some more lounges in FRA.
I had all in all a good experience aboard LH, I would recommend them if the price is right! I do hope you like this review and if theres any questions just let me know, I try to answer them asap!
Enjoy!

I tried a bit of zoom for my Etihad A380 Business Class Video Upper Deck Out-The-Window-shots, seemed to work well :-) How do you like something-like-vlogging so far?
You and Amandeuce are my fav TH-camrs
there is no zoom on those gopros right? ;) maybe I should stick my regular cam to the window next time and try the same! :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) I'm satisfied. there's many people liking it and watching it, I think I'll keep those coming for shorter flights or my travel experiences like that hong kong vlog!
appreciate it! :)
Gorgerous tripreport man! Even though I hate those double-glazed windows the view with the GoPro was somehow extremly cool! :D Love your music choice! Already looking forward to the next tripreport, I remeber voting for the Air France 747 tripreport on your Facebook page, hopefully this one will be published soon... :D Greetings from Austria!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday! and unfortunately for you its not the AF review, but swiss business to LAX and the new lounge should be interesting for you too :) hope all is well, greetings from rainy zurich!
Great video. And what a coincidence. I flew the same flight back in April, but sat in 24A with seat next to me being free; used one seat to watch TV and the other to sleep. Good flight and service. Hats off to Lufthansa.
thats the best you can get :) hope you had a great flight and thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
Looks like an altogether pleasant flight. Thanks for taking me along!
You are the true trip reporter of youtube! You are always active and make the best trip reports! Thank you for that :)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
wish you lots of luck for the pilot exams!!!! such a great news to hear :) cannot wait to see how the "from the pilot point of views" flight reviews will look like :)
haha well it would be so cool to do that!! maybe the airline would support me ;) we'll see! thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!

3:11 Are you ok with the ["loud"] flaps & slats extending/retracting noise? Are you ok with an abnormally hard touchdown while landing?
Great review again! The legroom looks great but I am not too sure about seat width, it doesn't look spacious to me.
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) the seat is ok, nothing to complain there! I slept very good. But then again I'm not as wide as other people! btw new video is up this friday!
Amandeuce Looking forward to it =)
Another great video! Good luck on your selection day thing :)
Wow! Just about @ 3:47 a United Airlines jet taxis by repainted with one of the classic liveries from many decades ago. I'd say it was from the 1950s - 60s. A plane spotters dream!
oh how I love that livery!!! really nice retro jet! I'd love to live in those days. thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Once again nice job with the video. Good luck with you application for swiss. Im sure you will do great!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Wow, very cool that you applied for a Swiss pilot. Flying is really fun! I am also interested in a pilot job when I grow up. Hope your application went well:)
thank you very much for watching and commenting! appreciate it! :) don't forget to watch my latest review :)
Another beautiful video. I've said this before, but I LOVR the way you do takeoff scenes. Quick and interesting. I like it!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Amandeuce Oooh I can't wait! Your videos are the best
Well another great review! Good luck with your pilot selection! Hope you make it!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Lovely vid, great music and I like the clips you made of yourself. Makes it a bit more personal and I always wondered who was behind this channel :) Keep up the great work and safe travels!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) great comment! new video is up this friday! :)
Nice report, Loris. It is interesting that they served walnuts. I've never had walnuts on a flights, only peanuts, cashews, or mixed nuts. What did you think? Was it pretty nice? The LH business class product is a great product overall. I agree that it was lame that they gave you a premium economy amenity kit. That is just ridiculous, especially if you had paid cash for that flight (and LH is crazy expensive these days). I really like the LH A380. I think it's on of the best ways to fly because the cabin feels so roomy and spacious.
thank you very much jacob! well maybe thats just another german thing serving walnuts ;) I really liked the LH service, everything went pretty well and I thoroughly enjoyed that flight! thank you for watching, I'll post a swiss review with scenes of the new lounge in zurich this friday, hope to see you on swiss again soon ;)
Says a lot that LH operations does some meticulous planning for catering to be able to put the meal together and the FA to re-create the meal taste/presentation without being labor intensive. Economy was everything in metal tins that just needed the tops removed. Business most things just needed the tops removed but a number of items had to be assembled before served.
You're applying to be a pilot for Swiss? That's awesome. Good luck for next Friday!
thank you very much :)!
Very interesting track selection. Is that the Geto Boys instrumental of "My mind is playing tricks one me" in the background which of course samples Isaac Hayes "Hung Up On My Baby" ?
@4:06 loving it another Koru bird....Air NZ is everywhere in the US these days.. 6:23 I'm definitely booking that seat..
Really great video... you are so lucky to be able to travel and show the world your passion...
Keep on traveling mate!!!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
5:29 You can if you want to. What is that you are trying to show? I don't think I know if you can or not.
So do you just suction cup the GoPro for those window shots? They are cool. I have a Xiaomi Sport and I'm thinking of going with GoPro for better battery life.
yes exactly :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
that was amazing! at some point felt like i was seeing it for real. You got a subscriber! great work mate
The armrest near the window. Can you lower it completely out of the way? So as to make more width room? I like to do this where possible. It looks like you lowered it a fair bit? Never flown business before. Can you keep the blanket?
I think you can lower it all the way down. and no I dont think you can keep the blanket
I have always loved your video reports but I love them even more now with the added music throughout! :-)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Thanks for sharing the video! I had a similar menu on my flight from JFK to FRA a few weeks back. I wasn't a fan of the roast beef - to be fair, your's looked a bit better than mine! I also thought that the brownie was a bit of a cop out for business class. Bizarre that they ran out of amenity kits....
yes I thought that was bizarre too... shit happens. thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)I really liked the food, maybe we've got different tastes :) new video is up this friday!
Fantastic report! Congratulations and good luck with Swiss!! :D
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
As always, very enjoyable. Good luck with your pilot exam.
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
1:27 no coffee machine, but firstclass Stocki- was woscht mär? :-)
I am pretty pleased with most of the shots, keep up the work!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
I'm not a fan of the 2-2-2 configuration especially when travelling alone.
Excellent TR Loris...Having flown LHs business class (upgrade) to Dallas for Wrestlemania I thought it was an excellent product... their premium economy on the other hand was a total let down. Great food choice...and how good is LHs breakfast...I think it's hard to get a good breakfast on a lot of airlines. It's awesome you got the wine list in for Homer to inspect also👍. You make flying look exciting. Well done Loris.
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) yes the new LH business is pretty good! well I don't think that I'm ever going to get myself into premium eco, I'd rather save that money for better hotels and suffer in Economy for a while or spend a little more and get full business class :) hope all is well!
looks like a fun flight, how was houston? i miss your train rides in zurich ;)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) I loved houston, its such a nice clean city, but also a bit dead after business hours ;) so you want me to add more train rides to my reviews? :) btw new video is up this friday!
I moved to Houston 4 years ago and since then I've been desperately wanting to move back. I am moving this year, flying from Houston to Frankfurt to Moscow in business class. I am so excited please feel happy for me!!!
where are you moving to?
Moscow! Already there. I am the happiest I've ever been!
Hi Amandeuce! This is another great Video from you. For me you are the Flight Report Lord on TH-cam because you are very classy ;) PS: I have some questions for you !
1.Did you reached the 7km ;)
2. If you have the chance please try the TK business class product. I think you saw the seats and it seems you didn't liked it but trust me the food is excellent the seat is so big that i couldn't reached the footrest. I can go on and on but i hope you try tk business class
thank you for that awesome comment! :) yes I did, haha I can do 7 km now. Unfortunately its raining a lot these days so I can't go for 8 at the moment ;) but 7 isnt that bad! If there is a good deal I sure will give them a chance! Its just that at the moment I'm collecting miles for a gold status with Lufthansa and you would only get 25% aboard TK, thats why I'm not flying them right now. But sooner or later I will! :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
+Amandeuce Ja da hast du recht wen du heute in Zürich warst dan hast du den Regen schon gesehen.;)
yup war recht eindrücklich :)
Good luck in your selection day with Swiss!!!
thank you very much! :)
I think there is a button in movie maker to convert 4:3 into 16:9. I'm not sure and I assume that you tried everything but I remember that I once had the same problem and found a solution in movie maker
I think that button is for the video you want to create, so your production is either in 4:3 or 16:9, I dont think this is to convert. but I'm really no pro ;) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Really nice...thanks for sharing 👍🙌
08:01 Is the guy to the right playing some flight simulator or something?
no thats a inflight map feature :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
I swear that's a flight simulator though! It's not the inflight map at least! Looking forward to the video on friday!
I'd love if you put the date of the trip in the video or discription every time
Maybe in the start of the video
thx for the input!
I thought your seat looked like it was a Premium Economy Seat, but then I saw it was much larger legroom, just odd configuration.
Great review. Sucks the double window couldn't give you a good shot. Lovin' the contrails coming out from the wings during the cruise. :)
Anyways, what issue where you having with the GoPro with the aspect ratio? I know how to do the conversion which would require a program, but relatively easy to do depending on the operating system.
Good luck on your "selection day" my friend. Hope you do well. :)
I am taking my graduate school and medical entrance exams in the coming months. :/
well thats too much for me ;) I guess I was just trying out new settings on the gopro and forgot to put it back to 16:9. thats why it recorded that way. I'll do better on my upcoming trips ;) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday! good luck with your exams mate!
Honestly man every video you upload I always comment saying this is your best one yet! But you went over the top with this review! I absolutely loved the taxi & takeoff time-lapse! and the view of the contrails coming out from the back of the plane AWESOME! I also loved the part where you mentioned how you like comfort over style! Haha same with me I always wear my roots sweat pants on all my flights! If you want to check out my latest trip report its up on my channel it's from Toronto to Amsterdam! But all in all man this is DEFINITELY your best one yet! 👍👍👍
Haha bruuh hope you keep those great comments coming! Love to read them! I'll check out that review of yours soon! :) btw theres a new video coming this friday, I guess its going to be my best one ever ;)
+Amandeuce no prob! And ya it probably will be!! Haha!
love the gehto boys tribute at the 1 min mark lol. sounds like it got made into elevator music xD
Great report as always, editing skills on point ;)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Another great video! Lufthansa seems to be rearranging the meals, serving the salad with the main course. I
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
My IPad actually cut that comment short, and I was going to say I really liked the music around take off, and was wondering if you could tell me the name. I am looking for music to add to my videos. Thanks!
The only thing I don't like about the A380 is that it's windows are so far (sunken in like ) the fuselage. for the rest it's a beautiful plane.
Great video!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Ich liebe deine Schuhe! Weisst du noch wo du sie gekauft hast?? :)
die nikes? ja die hab ich im nike store in der dubai mall gekauft ;)
verdammt, etwas weit weg... sind das Nike free?
What song is playing at 7:50?
misael gauna - paradise
how do I find my wings all my life I havent seen any wings on my body
yourtub believe my child
Thank you for the film. That looked lovely!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
If you fly United Economy, is there a service buffet? If so, where is it usually located at?
theres no buffet
In every video about long-haul flights I see a KLM 747-400M XD
For the time lapse, put the camera closer to the window so half of the frame isn't the wall. Great vid though, and for 20k subs, plz do a face reveal or a Q&A.
NO ! Its much better with the Window/Wall
Not possible due to the curve of the fuselage, the A380 windows suck for taking video.
Can't do it. the A380 got a double window leaving so much space in between. Blame Airbus for the design.
you can't put it closer since there is another "window" before the real window... well facereveal is planned for 100'000 subs ;) and Q&A....why not, I have to think about that :)
Looks very Teutonic as expected. However, I would take Aer Lingus business class in a heartbeat over Lufthansa's seen here. AL had far more space and privacy as well as a larger, fully-flat seat.
This is one of my planned routes and on to Catania, Sicily.
hi I think u remember me from the last video I actually also liked this one keep up the god work :-)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
Nice Video, but how do you get all the money to pay the flights??
Yes I want to know that either :D
Work
+Tree Free ! He works for TH-cam, that is not enough to fly every month Business.
+Noah Bersier He probably dosent wants that his fans know what he is working. And this is normal. An i always see this questions in his Videos.
+Tree Free ! You can easily get these flights with your miles and your card status. I'm pretty sure he doesn't pay.
Your videos have imporved a lot. Love it
I hope you mentioned to someone how filthy your area was. Filth is not acceptable regardless of class. Other than that, looked like a great flight. Great video!
Which seat did you like more? EK's J seat or LH?
EK :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Amandeuce:Emirates A380 business class was better or A380 of Lufthansa
Emirates!
+Amandeuce Do you get chauffeur drive in Lufthansa business class
I love this Airline
especially their Boeing 747-8
You prefer confortable clothes when flying ? I'm not sure that a jean's is very confortable for a long haul flight
well I changed to comfy pants pretty fast after takeoff and I was more talking about those nikes ;) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) don't forget to watch my new swiss business video ;)
Do you already have ATPL or you apply for SWISS to do the whole training? Another issue, will SWISS pay for the training? Good luck with choosing the best job on Earth :-)
I apply for the whole training :) and no I have to pay for most of it, swiss only pays for a small part of the training. thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Mal wieder ein tolles Video!:)
herzlichen dank :)
Sehr gut geworden! Jedoch hat mir diese sicht aus dem Fenster diesmal gar nicht gefallen..Gehe doch nächste mal wieder viel dichter ans Fenster;-)
Ansonst wirklich klasse!
hallo raphael. danke für deinen kommentar. wenn du schon mal A380 geflogen bist weisst du das vor dem fenster noch eine scheibe installiert ist, leider ist es nicht möglich näher ans fenster zu kommen. in einem meiner singapore A380 videos hab ich diesen nachteil detailliert gezeigt ;) (falls es dich interessiert) danke fürs schauen und den netten kommentar! :)
+Amandeuce Hey Amandeuce
ich meimte wie bei 4:00
wo hast du denn dort die Kamera Fixiert?
Es gibt doch Saugnäpfe für Gopros... oder wie hast du das gemacht? woran fixiert?
Ja ich bin auch schon A 380 geflogen siehe mein zweitkanal... Review.
Planespotter@Zürich
Vielen Dank auch
Ja im oberdeck des A380 hat es etwa 10 cm vor dem fenster nochmal eine scheibe, dh ich kann gar nicht näher :) und ja genau gopro plus suction cup :) mit dem weitwinkel fisheye siehts dann hald so aus!
+Amandeuce ou na dann... dann das nächste mal wieder ins untere Deck;-)
I have a question. I will go back to Sri Lanka and my ask is : Whats better ? Qatar Airways, Emirates or Ethiad ?
Etihad
all 3 of them have awesome products IMO!
Was this flight at May.26th this year?
nope, this was in march. why?
since a friend of mine flew on May, 26th this year from Houston to Frankfurt and I thougth this would be maybe the same flight.
that steady window view tho ._. amazing! I used to like Lufthansa but price performance for normal economy user is inhuman :(
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) really are they that expensive? from switzerland they usually have good deals! btw new video is up this friday! ;)
Just a question do you speak both german and english?
well I'm fluent in german and swiss german and I try my best in english ;)
You do great English in your vids
When you will try the swiss B777 ?🙊
in about 5 weeks :) thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Hey please can you help me cousin is travelling from india to canada on lufthansa. He has a layover in frankfurt about 6 hrs can you explain transfer/connection procedure
just follow the signs, he doesn't even go through passport control
Wenn du den Zeitraffer weiterhin benutzt, wäre das richtig cool. Mach weiter so!
Herzlichen Dank fürs feedback! :)
Awesome video!!! I like the strip though!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) don't forget to watch my new swiss business video ;)
I'll watch your Swiss trip right now
please respond how do you do your time-lapse's
its a feature in windows movie maker, you can speed up your videos. thats how I do it! thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
+Amandeuce thxs and do you use suction cup gopro holder
exactly!
+Amandeuce where do you buy it and how do you buy the tickets
I buy them online!
Another excellent video. Well done....
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
this is their new business class???? it looks like a 90's time capsule. you can almost feel like you can bump into Rachel, Monica or Chandler any minute :)
hahaha great comment :D it actually isnt that bad, idk what people are bashing about this product all the time :)
Is there a flight simulator or something?
no that the IFE map. just a different point of view. thank you very much for watching and commenting! appreciate it! :) don't forget to watch my latest review :)
What airline are you planning to fly as a pilot?
I think Swiss
swiss :)
Good luck with the application !! Tell us how it was and give us some tipps please! ;-)
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)as soon as I know more you'll hear from me :)btw new video is up this friday!
Why not Delta?
I think it is because Star Alliance and Delta is not a memeber of *Alliance
Delta is Skyteam. Lufthansa is Star Alliance along with United.
What did SkyTeam ever do to him?
+Nikolai Shergi He is from Switzerland and in Europe there are many *Alliance members and not so many Sky Team members
+平和今日 ah. that makes sense.
Great video, thanks for sharing it!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
Very well done video and also on the UA FRA-IAH. Though UA Business/First (it's official name) is good, I think the foreign carriers still outdo it in quality, creativity and presentation of their catering. I watched a vid of Swiss yesterday and the food and presentation looked better than this on LH.
isn't the official name now Polaris?
For the charge of it, Emirates Business class on the A380, is 100 times better seating configuration of 1+2+1!
Ather Radwi less seats means less money
If the coffee is cold, heat it up in a microwave for a minute. if there is one available
That’s not right not having a Business Class amenity kit☹️
Excellent trip report!
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
What is the name of the song?
which one?
Amandeuce the one that starts on 1:02
Btw i really like your vids😃
two seats by the window seems like theyre trying to shove people in there to me which im not a huge fan of. also not a huge fan of the fact that you didnt get a business amenity kit. you also werent cery excited about the fas like you ususally are if they are very helpful
the FA's were pretty good. and yes thats my opinion too, just like swiss, they shove as much people in there as possible. thank you very much for watching and commenting! appreciate it! :) don't forget to watch my latest review :)
Love your videos ... Just wish the text was easier to see sometimes :) keep up the good work
thanks for the advise, I'll keep it in mind for the next review. and thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
You know, always when I watch your videos (I'm a frequent Amandeuce visitor;p) I ALWAYS wonder: where does he get the money to make ALL THOSE VOYAGES!!!! Please share your secret! :):):)
haha well thats a very good secret ;) no honestly I usually fly the cheapest fares I can find even if it means I have to start my trip from a different airport than zurich. i just have low fix costs and a lot to spend for vacation :)
+Amandeuce ah! Like so! It's then it's doable. Thanks for reacting and keep it up!
Lufthansa is not cheap to fly on it. But you did that last fall.
I thought the TV can move to the side
it can!
How tall are you?.
Artur B he's 5'10
I'm 5'10
great vid. keep the good work up.
thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
I will fly in a few weeks with Lufthansa Business Class from Frankfurt to beijing. Lets see how good it is
have a great flight and thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :)
Not a massive fan of Lufthansa business class, a bit too space efficient and crowded, service looks good though.
thats true! anyways, thank you very much for watching! appreciate it! :) new video is up this friday!
