Contrary to what you wrote at the 21:23 mark, newer planes such as the B787 and A350 are NOT quicker. They basically fly the same speed as their predecessors, even a bit slower than the older B747. If you made it very quickly accross the Atlantic ocean for this flight, it's because you benefited from a very good tailwind.
@@robertmainville4881 This does not seem to be true. I look at all the flights departing from my airport on daily basis on Flight Radar 24; and the same routes operated by older aircraft’s actually are a bit slower than the ones operated by B787/A350. The newer engines are more powerful and thus we arrive quicker at our destination. The difference isn’t huge, usually maximum 30min less. The flight operated by Air Canada A330 to Frankfurt is always around 6h25 min while the Lufthansa one on the 787 is always around 6h10 min and depending on the wind even quicker! Thanks for commenting!
@@AnetaMihaylova-d6f I’d say both are pretty equal, from what I remember of my flight last year I think the a350 was better, but in a bout 3 weeks I’ll be flying on Lufthansa’s a350 again and I’ll be able to give a better answer . Stay tuned! Thanks for commenting!
@@Antsir12 That’s good to know! I can’t say the same for Montreal Trudeau int’l airport, always cramped, not enough room, congestion at departures and arrivals level…. Thanks for commenting!
@@duaneowens7777 Yes I checked 3 bags, and they were all 15 kg, and the limit is 23 kg. From my experience with them, they are pretty strict with the weight and are going to charge you extra if you have overweight bags, especially for your carry on that have to be less than 8kg. At my airport, they also put your carry on in a small box to see if it fits in. Also, they always say that they’ll have to check in your carry on as well when the flight is full, but that’s not true. You should always keep you carry on until the gate and only if you can’t find space in the overhead bins, then check it in. But if your slightly overweight you should be fine, depending on the gate agent. Thanks for commenting!
@@jansupronowicz1300 Yes! They’ve been flying them since 2022. It’s a great addition to their fleet. They’re planning on receiving a lot of them in the next few years alongside the 777x to replace their old aircraft’s, like the a340, b747 and a330. This for an aviation geek like me is sad, but modernization is always great for passengers. The 787 is wonderful and very comfortable jet!
LH is getting more and more in a row with Ryanair and Wizzair... You pay for everything and a lot... When i can, i fly Singapore, Qatar, Emirates, etc. So much better in Service, price what you get and so on.
@@SVN3887 Yes, the overall service is quite disappointing. This wasn’t the case before the pandemic, the service was excellent. Nowadays, it seems more like an expensive low cost airline.
Not sure of the value of these videos that have been done a thousand times, and usually better. Just recording and adding text later isn't worthy of posting, sorry.
@@bruceketcheson4877 I’m sorry the video didn’t please you, but I have to say I am the only video for this flight on economy, and although my filming skills may not be the best, at least all the information is there. I find These type of none constructive comments are not necessary. If you didn’t like the video, no need to comment.
Great Trip Report

I flew on Lufthansa's 787 from Detroit to Frankfurt. It was a great flight.
@@Christopher350 That’s so cool! Lufthansa’s 787 does offer a comfortable and smooth ride!
А350 is better isn't it @alextravel9219

Detroit Metro Airport is a great airport. I never feel traffic congestion there. It was well designed.

Great video .. did you check in a bag. Were they strict with the weight

Cool video. I’m doing this same flight next week. Are there usb ports at the seats?
Yes, in economy you will find a usb port under every IFE screen! I hope you have a great flight! Thanks for watching!
Flew on this exact flight a year ago!
@@TheRyan-himself Cool! How did you like it?
Not that much. The Economy Class wasn’t that nice. I had trouble sleeping and wasn’t that comfortable
@@TheRyan-himself Yes, the economy on Lufthansa is very uncomfortable, although I must say that my seat with extra legroom helped a lot
@@alextravel9219 that’s good to hear :D
❤❤❤❤ ths
I didm't know Lufthansa was flying B787's.
