They are shit 💩! I flew 2 months ago.. from Istanbul to Frankfurt to Dallas. They were horrible.. inside the plane and at Frankfurt airport. The planes are a relic from the 90’s.
You flew 747 then, its one of the best planes in the world so not sure why you didn't like it, us aviators would kill to be on one of those! @@wolfauu
Lufthansa will keep the A380 and will also renew the business class but not with a different reverse herringbone seat instead of Allegris. So don’t worry , Sam, you can continue flying Lufthansa‘s A380.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, if I remember correctly, they will use the staggered seat configuration that can be found on their ex-Philippine Airlines A350s.

You got the beautiful east approach into YVR! The initial tower clusters were Metrotown (front) and Brentwood (back) with the shot afterwards (with the curved building near the top) being Marine Drive (front), 49th Ave (middle) and 41st ave development (back with curved building). Then some glipses of Vancouver downtown in the very back! Gorgeous mountain views and the Lufthansa 747 to cap it off! I live near the airport and it's been a treat watching this A350 arrive and depart along with the 747 flying the summer service from Frankfurt. Great video!
Now I'm gonna have to reroute my flight one time to try this new business class, thanks Sam. Lufthansa always has the best flight experience in my opinion flights always clean and staff are always so nice been flying with them for over 15+ years, The Best
Great video Sam!! I like ALL your videos, but I admit I REALLY ENJOY traveling with you in this type of a video!! Everything about it: the aircraft, conversation with pilots and airline personnel, etc...its all so interesting. Thanks so much Sam! We appreciate you and your videos!!
Nice to see an airline flying their newest product to my hometown YVR. Traditionally, YVR always got the oldest business class products and I have to go to LAX, JFK etc to fly newer products.
It's great that they installed individual temp controls. A Major complaint has always been that Lufthansa keeps their cabins too warm, and this can be sickening on a long-haul flight.
Flew LH FRA-YVR in 2013. The most beautiful flight in the world. Deep into Greenland, the whole Canadian White North and the Rockies. Perhaps the world's only flight that takes off and lands at the same time. Always remember that flight.
As a Brit I have to say, its admirable that Lufthansa has tried so hard to please EVERYONE, which in itself is impossible. Sam has found something to complain about, compared to some airlines business class that I've travelled on, this is exceptional, the amount of room borders on first class. What this costs is more prevalent, as Sam says, you pay more for more. How much more? Seeing it all in the video, makes you wonder, where did they find all the space! Good video Sam.
So beautiful that A350 Flight deck. I only had the honor to fly A330/340 first generation and B777 which was like Oldtimers against this. Cabin looks awesome.
One of the things that I respect about star alliance, in general, is that the staff is just as hospitable to someone in economy as they are to a media personality sitting in business or first. All airline staff is nice when the cameras are rolling, but it is refreshing to see that the standard across star alliance is to treat every customer with a warm welcome
Hi Sam - thanks for sharing a really cool video of the new Allegris makeover. I doubt that i will ever fly business class! I loved the views that you shared of the flight into Vancouver - it reminded me of when I was there a long time ago - I flew in from London, and then out to Frankfurt. The views of the Rockies and the Arctic region were really amazing. Just so beautiful. I thought that you might share the basketball player's experience after you landed - maybe you could post a comment? Thanks for sharing - really enjoyed it.
Vancouver will also be the first city to have LH 787-9 service this summer with the new Allegris seating replacing the 747-400 on the FRA/YVR route. For plane watchers the iconic 747-400 will be missed.
Good. An improvement from very outdated product to a less outdated product. Nice marketing spin to make the fact that the cabin has so many seat variations a selling point. I like the suites at row 2 and the throne seats (although the shoulder room of the throne seat looks very tight). The rest of the seats are pretty basic.
@@dennis12dec no it isnt, that was Eisenach. Bach spent the second half of his life in Leipzig though and was the Kappelmeister there (The head of church music and music for the whole city). I think that Mendelssohn lived in leipzig, I believe the Schumann siblings lived there too.
Interesting flight report and open words as a conclusion from you. The planned surcharge for seat reservations in business class is controversial. The suite is certainly worth an extra charge - but is a single row seat by the window, for example, also worth an extra charge? That's how it's intended. In connection with the high price level at Lufthansa (and compared to Emirates, Singepore without surcharges in business class) it seems a bit excessive.
What a cool concept Sam. Thanks for bringing it to us. I hope you had an opportunity to enjoy Vancouver. I noticed that CEO identified the first Allegris flights will be to other cities here in Canada including Toronto and Montreal. Any reason for Canadian destinations being at the top of the list? Cheers...Jim
Hi Sam, thank you for all your videos.. :) You were the reason why I went to Tahiti in February last year.. because I saw how nice it was on your trip.. I didnt plan it at all.. So if you keep doing what you do, I might follow another random beautiful places around the world.. And also I need to mention, that flying over Rockies is one of my favorite views everytime.. I live not very far from Vancouver so I am plannig to create a video from cessna or another airplane and fly the whole Frasier valley.. Good luck
I flew Premium Economy on LH's A350 D-AIXU from YYZ to MUC a few days ago. It's quite nice. The only annoying thing was the touch screen of the IFE. Quite often I had to tap twice or thrice. Because a slight movement of the finger on the screen resulted in moving the screen content. This happens often when the flight is a bit bumpy. But that's complaining on "high" level ;) I really enjoyed the flight.
19:12 that's not quite right, the A380 won't get the new Allegris product, but it will be fitted with more modern business class seats and i think also all the other classes
Thank you for this great video, Sam. You are showing the best of aviation. Lufthansa will have a true gamechanger product which puts it on a new trajectory. A bit of color change and it will beat BA. 😁
Dirk Novitzki, played 21 seasons in NBA for Dallas Mavericks. Authentic legend as legendary is Lufthansa!
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
I knew he looked familiar
He's also an NBA champion and Hall of Famer
Yeah, we know… and it’s Nowitzki..
Really man, that was amazing
Having a NBA superstar just makes the flight even more special. Go Lufthansa!
The CEO is a captain - Big props to Lufthansa 🥂
Indeed!

Indeed, thanks for mentioning here. Good to see the A380 live getting prolonged too!
@@SamChuiyo sam if you could respond to this comment i would be very happy thank you always putting a smile on our faces
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, if I remember correctly, they will use the staggered seat configuration that can be found on their ex-Philippine Airlines A350s.
@@greyhound7148 that is still to be decided, but they will use a seat that has been already certified for the A380.
That 350 cockpit looked seriously impressive! Very modern and clean!
After the verry outdated business class happy to see the new product
LOL, Dirk Nowitzki in Sam's video!! His team just advanced in the 2nd round of the NBA Playoffs. 😂😂🤣🤣🏀🏀
@JoshuaC-Work one of the greatest european players to play in the nba
@JoshuaC-Work dirk single handenly won dallas mavericks the nba championship in 2011 against prime lebron james in the finals, brother is a hall of famer and the best eu player ever
Dirk was a great surprise and finally, he found a seat where he can go flat!
@JoshuaC-Work and I never heard of you
The OKC and Dallas series will be great
Dirk Nowitzki, was the best part of this flight ✈️. Thank you Mr Chui 👍
Nice to see that Lufthansa finally reached the year 2017
Doesn’t matter since you won’t be able to afford anything but bucket class anyway.
In terms of service you can't really say they're backwards.
Because it was never as bad in the past.😂
LEGEND, it's DIRK!never left his team to chase rings and still dogwalked the miami big 3 when they were underdogs. truly amazing.
Haha, great seeing Dirk enjoy his retirement. Dudes a NBA legend and so down to earth lol.
OMG the eyes of the Lady of the crew, that blast of beauty.

Port Mann Bridge as well. I live in Surrey. My workplace is below the bridge in Coquitlam.
Wowowow.!! I have flown with LUFTHANSA Many Years ago...Now i see the A350..!!! What A AWESOME AIRCRAFT!!💯💯💯💯🥰🥰🥰🥰
That flight attendant just caught my attention❤
She was just calming
I really enjoyed how you captured the take-off visually and the sounds as well.
All your vlogs and Facebook postings are enjoyable.
As a Canadian, I'm honored that the first allegris flight was to YVR
Such a unique business class layout! Great way to demonstrate those long seats with Dirk lol
Good to see the new product, finally! What I don’t like are the different seat options in Business. Dirk from Würzburg, a true legend!
Now I'm gonna have to reroute my flight one time to try this new business class, thanks Sam. Lufthansa always has the best flight experience in my opinion flights always clean and staff are always so nice been flying with them for over 15+ years, The Best
I’m 214cm tall, so that extra legroom suite is made for me! Fantastic!
Very nice video, thanks a lot for sharing! And good to see Dominik from Germany in a short talk with you. 👍
The Allegris Double Bed First Class Suite should be decked out on front cabin of 747-8i Upper Deck
Yes indeed, this should make the 747-8i all-time great.
How would you do that? The pilots walk to the side of the cabin to get to the cockpit?
@@thomashafner basically similar to the old ones with fullheight partition
Sleek and modern design. The amenities are great too!
Modern stuff
So awesome seeing Dirk Nowitzki!! What a legend and super Lufthansa convinced him to join lol 😂
Wow, Milla Jovovich as a stewardess.... 8:02
Great video Sam!! I like ALL your videos, but I admit I REALLY ENJOY traveling with you in this type of a video!! Everything about it: the aircraft, conversation with pilots and airline personnel, etc...its all so interesting. Thanks so much Sam! We appreciate you and your videos!!
The best thing about Sam Chui's videos is the complete reference to airplane meals.
Nice to see an airline flying their newest product to my hometown YVR. Traditionally, YVR always got the oldest business class products and I have to go to LAX, JFK etc to fly newer products.
The Allegris product is classy rather than decadent. Good job Lufthansa Airlines! We’ll see you soon…. :-)
Great video Sam. I really like the way you included other RUclipsrs and Dirk. Incredible good work!
It's great that they installed individual temp controls. A Major complaint has always been that Lufthansa keeps their cabins too warm, and this can be sickening on a long-haul flight.
Very cool! ✈️ 👍 Looking forward to the Swiss A350. 🤩

Amazing to see yourtravelTV in your video, was shocked tbh but really nice 😂
I'm so happy to hear the 747-8 will be seeing these updates as well, long live the Queen of the Skies.

The magic of Sam is that he makes you feel as if the only thing that would make him happier is if the viewer were along with him on the flight.
So beautiful that A350 Flight deck. I only had the honor to fly A330/340 first generation and B777 which was like Oldtimers against this. Cabin looks awesome.
I have a few health issues over the last few years, it's limited my flying, can not thank you enough, watching your Vlog cheers me up.
Your Silk Way West videos are amazing...!
Cool!!! I can't wait to try out these new business suites... such a step up from what they have now.... especially for the single traveler.
OMG Dirk Nowitzki is a legendary basketball player!!! I watch NBA because of him!!!
This is so awesome Sam, thanks for sharing!
The flight attendant is beautiful. She has gorgeous eyes
Falling in love on youtube is a bummer. Sorry for your pain. Been there

So amazing to see a product I've worked on (monument) finally fly !!
I absolutely love the extra long seats! A welcome change for a tall man like me.
every day, i see AIRBUSS, i understand the quality.
I waited 1 year for this video!

It is so nice to hear LH will retrofit the 747/8. So hopefully i can enjoy the Queen in future again!
I wish you had done some coverage of the economy seats which is where most of the travellers will be flying.
I’m more of fan reclining into someone’s face 😂😂 Sam is too funny
Love all the different seating options!
Love the new cabin! Awesome. Wish I could afford it!
Beautiful Cabin On A Beautiful Air Craft.Great Video And Info
I haven’t watched it yet but i can already tell it’s gonna be a banger!
16:57 no complain going straight 😅❤ sweet
Captain Juergen Raps would be proud!
Amazing. Can't wait to fly onboard of this Aircraft in this new cabin class.
Extra log beds are so impressive 🎉🎉🎉
Great video. Looked like a fun flight with friendly interactions with all you spoke to
I can not wait to see emirates A350-900 from inside 😍😍😍
thank you sam for this video

The 2-3-2 PE is impressive. Most A350s have a 2-4-2 PE.
wow - now i saw everything. Sam, Dirk & YourTravelTV in one video.
Lufthansa Introducing a brand new product and somewhat managed to be already 5+ years behind. Well played.
So nice that this specific aircraft is named 'Leipzig', one of my very favourite cities in Germany as a music lover!
It's the birthplace of Johann Sebastian Bach.
@@dennis12dec no it isnt, that was Eisenach. Bach spent the second half of his life in Leipzig though and was the Kappelmeister there (The head of church music and music for the whole city).

It's nice to see the best airline in Europe step up and bring their hard in-flight product up to, and exceeding, the norm for long haul flights.
Best airline in Europe? Are you a bot?

Great review! Beats ANY domestic airline!
The cabins are stunning. Love the minimalist German style.
congrats LH: Allegris looks great; very curious about the new First Class

Oh yes, Vancouver from the air is magical!!😀
It’s been years since I watched your channel
And it’s still how I like it:)
I can't wait to fly in the new Lufthansa Allegris A350!
The business class seats look so much better then the ones on the A380...they were outdated, horrible and a lot of them were broken during our flight.
Get em Dirk!!

You know Sam I really want to be an aerospace engineer and I always watch your videos THEY ARE THE 👌 best
