This plane flies over my village in Algeria around 22:00 and I always watch the flight back ( Cape town - München ) that goes over where I live at 18:00, I just love it.
Good job! Your video was very interestig and it shows all parts of the flight also the amazing view after depaturer in Cape Town. I'm interested in your further videos.
+mflieger thank you! I admit that I was extremely lucky with that weather in Cape Town, the days before the weather was really bad! In a few days I’m going to upload a new trip report. (FRA-ZRH) with Lufthansa’s Embraer 190LR. After that one unfortunately I don’t expect trip reports for the next months, maybe one in November, sorry 🙄.
nice trip report! A340 is the aircraft I really want to experience on. The IFE looks good, it's very responsive and offered a great variety of games and films
It looks like British Airways, but it isn't! This plane belongs to South African "Comair" which operates flights in franchise for BA. For more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comair_(South_Africa)
Damn when I flew back to FRA from CPT I was on a A340-400 and sat on 037k. Window seat but because I'm a child and I was alone I had to swap with my teacher. The worst thing is it's a window seat and it was sun set and I had to sit in the centre rows.
+Félix Maltchinski I’ve booked this flight directly from Lufthansa’s site, so I didn’t buy a codesharing flight ticket. I think this flight is also codeshared but I don’t know with which airlines..
I used to fly economy & occasionally business class between Jo'burg and various European destinations back in 2003 and 2004 and went with a number of airlines including Lufthansa, Virgin Air, SAA, BA and KLM and Lufthansa was by far the worst by a long stretch. Firstly there were only tv screens every 10 rows or so, with no choice obviously, compared to Virgin which even back then had screens in the back of every seat with a choice of channels and a gaming console too. Food was served around 2 to 3 hours after take-off, and only after it had been served did the screens show a film after 3 hours of repeated news programmes. Breakfast was served around 3 or 4 am, 2 or 3 hours prior to landing so if you were lucky you could get 4 hours sleep and arrive feeling rough as fuck. ScheissLufthansa. All the other airlines were good to excellent, as well as Japan Airlines and Asiana which I also flew on going to the Far East. Another utterly crap airline was from the good old USA (no surprises then) - United Airlines, possibly even worse than Lufthansa.
@@walkwithjonas7920 Really? I was normally able to get at least 6 hours sleep on long haul, economy or not. By long haul I do mean intercontinental flights of at least 10 hours.
@@simonh6371 I envy you! I can never sleep on an airplane, flew business for the first time 2 weeks ago and got some 4 hours of sleep and was already proud 😄

Must be nice to see it from below! ;)
Cool!
@@TheAirPassenger so addictive
Great video! Really love the A343 and hope to have the chance to fly it one day.. the Take Off in CPT was simply stunning with that sunset!
+Flight Time Thank you! By the way I’m subscribed to your channel, keep the good work going!

Finally I found the best Lufthansa video I’m so happy I love this channel
Thanks! :-)

Thanks! We'll be taking this same flight next month, but with a baby.
Have a safe flight then, I hope you enjoy it 😉
Since when did British Airways have a 737-800?

Oh, that sounds terrible! Hope you get to experience it in the window seat in the future!
Sorry meant A340-300
Very nice video. However, you are much more positive about airline food (in economy) than I am, so good for you my friend.
Thanks for commenting!
I guess that in the end, it differs from person to person 😉
Excelente video
+Jenry Gonzales Thank you!
Awesome trip report
Thanks! :-)
Very nice video. Cheers.
+strafrag1 Thanks!
What is your height? Is leg room good for a 6.2 " guy.
I’m 1.81 meters (5.94") tall. For you the legroom will be at the limit. If you can I would suggest flying in premium economy
You took the South African Airways codesharing flight but was this flight codesharing with my flag carrier Air Canada?

Well....I guess that things have changed a little in the past 16 years....
4 hours of sleep would be amazing on any long-haul economy flight actually :D
