This was the first flight report I ever watched. I never knew they would become such a normal thing today. Thanks for showing us what Lufthansa was like almost 12 years ago...
I flew Lufthansa from JFK to Frankfurt on a 747 a couple of years ago. Not a plane geek, so I don't know which model 747 it was. What I can say, is that the level of service on Lufthansa (even in coach) was excellent! An older guy said it was comparable to flying Pan Am in the '60's. Good food, comfortable seats, complimentary drinks, hot towels, etc. Watching the sun rise over the English Channel was a highlight.
Flew Lufthansa A380 Frankfurt-Jo'burg and back in July. Great cabin service in economy; cabin crew great with the kids. Food not brilliant but perfectly edible. Seats need an extra half inch of padding but otherwise reasonable. Entertainment pretty average and touch screens need patience (though they do respond eventually!). Amazingly quiet aircraft, even behind the engines.
Nice one, SD! I enjoyed my first ever A380 flights to Frankfurt and back in November 2012. The only thing that I didn't enjoy were the massive boarding queues and associated chaos. I will hopefully be making the same flights again in November this year.
What a great video! I felt like I was boarding the plane too! I'll be travelling on a Lufthansa A380 from JFK to Frankfurt in September 2011. I can't wait now I've seen this video. Thanks for posting it! Craig - Melbourne, Australia.
I flew on the " Hamburg " out going and " Dusseldorf " back to Jhb. I didn't know they named their planes after foreign cities as well..another Lufthansa A380 is called " Tokio "
i flew from Johannesburg to Frankfurt on Lufthansa A380 in December 2013 was a good flight. And i will be flying with Air France in a couple of months will be nice to see the Difference
Brilliant video! Very well made. I never had the oppertunity before to set my feet on an A380 before. Hopefully one day it will happen since I have a friend who lives in White Rock, Canada, right next to Vancouver.
Was just in Jo'burg. There are always an Air France and a Lufthansa A380 parked next to each other, which can be seen every time one drives past the airport.
Perfect!!! Even in the night, the takeoff offers amazing view of Jo'burg. Nobody before you had uploaded such an excellent videos with the A380 to and from JNB/FAJS. Thanks a lot.

LIKE TIMES FIVE!!!!! That was an awesome video! I really felt as if I was onboard with you. Even when you were in the airport and standing in the line waiting to board. Excellent job. Well done!
Great video! I flew on Air France A380 JFK-CDG and both landings were very hard! Nice job with edit and HD quality...overall it's a great plane, and I say that being a Boeing fan all my life...congrats.
That will be very interesting for you. Flew with Air France not so long ago as far as I was concerned it was a complete shambles. Not doing this to be nasty, but if there is a way out of flying with take it. Reasons are as follows very rude stewards I was flying to LAX fromCDG. Aircraft wasn't particularly clean. If you do have to fly with them I hope my episode was just a bad experience on my part. Will never fly with them again , even if they are cheaper than Norwegian Air.
according to seatguru.com, Lufthansas A380 are "equipped with USB and Ipod chargers" in economy class. real AC power ports are only available in First & Business class
Lufthansa flights nowadays cost only about 650 € to South Africa but if you fly with turkish airlines you also have to pay a higher price for the route from Sweden to Turkey and you can select your food if you want to and don't listen to something voted by people, maybe with no idea of other airlines or no idea about flying

I love Lufthansa! Total piece of mind as a passenger, and great professionalism from the crew.

Awesome :)
It's absolutely amazing that those engines have enough thrust to get something that size off the ground!
I like Lufthansa Air lines, it's the best Air lines off all.
Watching this makes me feel so nostalgic. One of the first trip report videos I remember watching. This is a trip down memory lane

Where credit is due. That was excellent. I too feel I was on the aircraft itself!
أكيد طبعا نال أعجابي كل أفلام اليوتبوب الخاص بطائرة الأير باص A380 وأتمنى المزيد . شكرا
The flight is very comfort and i traveled and enjoy a lot. I am thankful the crew.
What a great video! I felt like I was boarding the plane too! I'll be travelling on a Lufthansa A380 from JFK to Frankfurt in September 2011. I can't wait now I've seen this video. Thanks for posting it! Craig - Melbourne, Australia.
Every phase of the flight. Very well done.
I'm binge watching these videos since I'm going too but my god this plane is revolutionary👏👏
Just saw Lufthansa A380 "Johannesburg" taking off to Frankfurt from MIA!
Thanks b.zg
I flew on the " Hamburg " out going and " Dusseldorf " back to Jhb. I didn't know they named their planes after foreign cities as well..another Lufthansa A380 is called " Tokio "

Was just in Jo'burg. There are always an Air France and a Lufthansa A380 parked next to each other, which can be seen every time one drives past the airport.
I flew this exact plane on June 2011. It took me 10 hours from Johannesburg to Frankfurt
When you see the size of the Cabin it makes you realize how amazing it its that planes of this size can actually lift off the ground!
i love that aircraft...the airbus a 380...i flew with lufthansa and love that flight....
I watched this 3 times already, still love it!
Brilliant video..sums up the journey very well..
That was a great flight. Thanks for bringing me with you.

i like united the most just because they seem very reliable and have a great safety record.
LOOK AT THE ROWS OF SEATS!!
MY HEAD IS SPINNING.

Antonov-225 is still the biggest plane. Boeing 747-8-is modernized and has everything and plus in it. Nice plane to fly in, and very quite.
I sat in this Lufthansa A380 Flight it's amazing airlines and fantastic food service also and comfortable seat.
Very good. I liked every moment thereof!
Fantastic video, can't wait for my local airline (Malaysia Airlines) to put their Airbus A380 into service. :)
superbe video we feel like airport ambiance
My kids 'experienced' their first take off and landing on this video, now for the real thing!
Great video! I flew on Air France A380 JFK-CDG and both landings were very hard! Nice job with edit and HD quality...overall it's a great plane, and I say that being a Boeing fan all my life...congrats.

Very good filming!!

@MrCars That's the engines slowing the plane down. The reverse thrust. It is a pretty huge plane with lots of weight to slow down.
very good video

That will be very interesting for you. Flew with Air France
not so long ago as far as I was concerned it was a complete
shambles. Not doing this to be nasty, but if there is a way out
of flying with take it. Reasons are as follows very rude stewards
I was flying to LAX fromCDG. Aircraft wasn't particularly clean. If you do have to fly with them I hope my episode was just a bad experience on my part. Will never fly with them again , even if they are cheaper than Norwegian Air.
