INSIDE Lufthansa First Class on the Boeing 747

  • Join me inside Lufthansa's First Class onboard their Boeing 747. Starting at the airport, in a private luxury terminal. Next i'm driven over to the Queen of the Skies in a high performance Porsche. Whilst onboard I'll enjoy caviar, a medium rare steak and a special German desert of Gingerbread. After putting my PJs on (complete with a scarf!) i'll settle into the 5* bed arriving refreshed into the United States.
    As with all my trip reports, you can expect a fully comprehensive review of all elements of the First Class experience. I'll showcase what it's really like to fly this exclusive product from Frankfurt, Germany over to Chicago in the USA.

      @@t.r4849 WTF are you talking about? These first class flights charge anywhere between $4,000 to $20,000 a seat! Champagne and caviar should be minimum requirements for those prices, much less good food and great service. BTW - homophobic and misogynistic much? Crawl back into your cave.

Sure, it's ridiculously expensive so it's something 99.9% of the world will never experience but DAMN what a use of resources.

    Hi Will. Love seeing the 747-800. I'm so glad that Lufthansa is still operating them. Great review. 👍💯 Lufthansa First Class checks all of the boxes for me except the lack of a privacy door. Once you've experienced being in your" little cocoon" it's rather hard to go back to "being on show" while sleeping. 🤣. I do understand that some passengers prefer the lack of a door as they feel claustrophobic in a suite. To each his own, of course. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding week.

    I’ve been fortunate to be on LH first class several times and it’s one of the best, if not the best F classes outside of the Asian and middle eastern airlines. Their ground/transit/boarding service for F class is excellent. Swiss first is also very good. BA forget it.. terrible. I’ve not been on La premier yet, will try that soon.
    But, in terms of onboard product and food/bev quality I’d have to say SQ, Qatar and Emirates first class are a step above.

This will be our first 1st so looking forward to the whole shebang. We've made sure to get an early flight to FRA to make full use of the 1st Class Terminal. We're taking Swiss on the way back (A340) so will be interesting to compare.

      Thanks for watching Richard. Not sure I agree on QSuites being superior though. They may have a door but have much smaller ‘real estate’ with a cubby for your feet. It’s for sure the best Business Class but it’s not in the same league when you take into account the ground service, food (caviar/steak), bedding and service (just 8 pax) you get on Lufthansa F. Which FC products do you think overall offer a better experience?

    Mate I enjoy the reviews but the lack of transparency on how you are able to be flying these airlines in 1st class is becoming more and more of a gripe of mine. Ad revenue doesn’t match up to the “advertised” price on the Skyscanner screenshot you’ve posted, and my previous comments on videos regarding the same subject go unanswered. Why not disclose fully if you pay for the flights, perhaps if they’re gifted or if you’re using miles etc? Even if you’re actually paying for them for the astronomically high prices and running things at a loss to get the viewership up, then why not say this? It would add so much to the review in my opinion.

    The First Class Lounge is fantastic. Closed for the time being are the cigar lounge with self-pour whiskey and the buffet. Not too bad since you've still got the bar and table service as backup. Those ducks are coveted collectors items of many frequent flyers. They change frequently. Gotta collect them all!! :)
