7 hours sleep isn’t too bad?! I can’t even get that in a bed, let alone a seat!
haha was just thinking that
Can you imagine trying to sleep on a 14-hour flight in the almost-upright seats in Economy?
@@Bobrogers99 Its done every day. Especially on those long haul emirates flights going into Dubai from the USA.
Bob Rogers New York to Hong Kong non-stop or London to Perth? People do it all the time!
George L There’s a difference between sleeping and passing out from exhaustion 😜
Watching in late 2020 and reminiscing of life with out masks n social distancing
If its on top deck it does not mater if the seats uncomfortable for me, its a pleasure to sit in those seats on 747.
this flight passes extremely near from my beach house in Natal Brazil, its always an amazing feeling when I see in fight radar, planes from europe to Buenos Aires crossing the skies of my beach house, best wishes form Natal Brazil.
Yes lovely pollution for ur beach house
o aviao passa em cima da minha casa tbm
It still amazes me they charge you for wifi in business.
It is very expensive for the Airline!
To be honest, it’s a really good way to gain money. Business class is for business travellers, and they would probably need to work during the flight. However, it is a bit annoying they do have to pay sometimes.
It's better to charge passengers for wifi, as only people use it, who really need it. That means more speed for those, who use it.
@@Luke-jv5iw That's capitalism for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@lausimeyer6558 Agreed. Satellite network is not very cheap and airlines pay for every mb traffic for the service. So if everyone would be allowed, they would go bankrupt, that's why if you need it, you pay for it additional charge, no matter what 'class' ticket you have.
forget to mention: entering the plane direct from the lounge is GREAT
04:12 ... Jeeze Noel, didn't tell us you flew with Angela Merkel.
Loved the tip appreciation to your attentive cabin crew guy!
Lufthansa Business Class is a superb product, great Noel.
that was not a tip imho - more like a business card about his channel.
Lufthansa Business Class is a superb product?
You´ve clearly NEVER been on an Emirates, Singapore, Qatar or Thai flight.
It´s not a different league, it´s a different sport!
Wouldn’t say it is a superb business class 🤔🤦🏼
Endless little corridors sounds like Charles de Gaulle
Yes de Gualle was so confusing and I was in a rush
7 hours asleep....meanwhile in ECONOMY.............. :D
gives "red eye flight" a whole new meaning
I’d do 30+ hour trips from Australia to Europe and wouldn’t sleep once because of economy seating
Including traveling to and from the airport as well as a layover, flying from Germany to New Zealand takes about 50 hours. 50 hours in which you will not be getting any sleep if you're traveling in economy, and if you're particularly unlucky, you'll have a crying baby 2 rows away on the 16 hour leg from Dubai to Auckland. And no, the baby didn't sleep, and no, it didn't stop crying for 16 hours straight, and no, the parents couldn't be bothered at all
I do economy red eye flights all the time as a 180cm tall 100kg bloke and I have no trouble sleeping. Simply, starve yourself of sleep and then go to sleep immediately after the meal service. Normally get 6 hours of sleep on a 12 hour flight.
Wow
I came across your videos on RUclips and they’re very soothing and relaxing. Cheers!
my dad flew in the upper deck of this 747-830 on a flight from Vancouver to Frankfurt and it was a very private experience! So great to see you on this plane Noel! Queen of the skies!
The price seemed quite inexpensive for Business Class.
Seems very cheap - was that a special offer?
That should have been the very cheap business fare from AMS (AMS-FRA-EZE-ZRH-AMS) I think. Price was about 1200$ return.
What a bargain...
@@kidsaviation8221 what? where? they are always the most expensive ones
maybe expensive for people, who dont have much money....but with lufthansa u get a lot af service and extras. ;)
I did the 15 hour Chicago to Tokyo when I was 12 by myself back in 95. My Aunt taught military students in Japan and taught english to the Japanese students. So I had the opportunity to go out their several times. Counting the flight from Tampa to Chicago total time in the air was 17.5 hours. I took the 727-200 to Chicago and 747-400 to Tokyo Narita. United was probably the best. I used ANA and JAL on my 2nd and 3rd trips. They used the 777-200 and an MD 11 with stops in San Francisco on the way back.
I love how one of the FA’s knew about your RUclips channel!
I love when you can board directly from the lounge; Emirates has the same thing with a lot of their flights.
“A pretty little city” lol 😂. It is a 12mm people city
That's the joke 🤣
Why are they only 12 millimeters?
It actually lives 3 million people in the city, but in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires it is over 10 million!
@@TransistorBased 😂
Awesome video Noel!! Always excited for your videos, absolutely fantastic! Thanks :D
Amazing video, great to see you down here in Argentina! Palermo is one of the top neighborhoods of the city 😉 hope you enjoy our country!
Great video as always. What a beautiful plane - the plane we should all be flying on ! Queen of the skies !
Great video, great review and looking forward for your next experience. 🛫 Love the Lufthansa travel kit😎 Greetings from Texas
Hi Noel, thanks for the report. I flew the mighty 747-8 with Lufthansa a couple of months ago Newark to Frankfurt as part of a Star Alliance around the world business class trip. The reason we went to Frankfurt this trip ( I've been before) was to experience the amazing 747 upper deck once again, this time on the -8 and it may have been our last chance. In my opinion, there is nothing like the upstairs in a 747 and we weren't disappointed. Our seats I think we're in exactly the same part of the cabin as yours although we had no issues with the comfort. Maybe at 6'1 I'm a little shorter than you and that was the difference.
Lufthansa 747 flights are awesome. They have this same setup with the lounge in Boston USA for flights to Frankfurt. Very convenient!
Same setup at Washington Dulles too.
I love your videos, they're a welcome break from over edited 'RUclips optimized' videos that people make nowadays. Keep it up!
@Jimi T. I honestly don't know what people's problem is with Sam Chui.
Beautiful video. GoPro 7 looks good!
Good way to spend a long flight, in Business :)
Thanks for this video, really helpful. I’m also off to Argentina in May and am taking the same route and class.
Hey Noel! I flew the LH 747-8 last July, from Washington Dulles to Frankfurt. I agree - those seats are so weird - you feel like you're sitting really high up for some reason and the angle of the TV is odd too. But LH service was really decent. Plus you're on a 747-8 and they're really getting quite rare now. Nice video mate, cheers!
Great content really enjoyed this thanks Noel keep it up 👍🏼
At Heathrow, Emirates also has boarding from lounge to plane!
Must be Lufthansa day here on RUclips.. Paul Lucas just uploaded his vid on the A340 Lufthansa from Dublin to Frankfurt then we get Lufthansa 747 from Frankfurt to Buenos Aires.. Would love to visit Argentina sometime, looks nice.. Good stuff.. Also I now know that if I ever have to make a flight connection in a European airport.. It wont be Frankfurt.. Good stuff :)
literally me just watched Paul's video then came here
I made the same observation
Eunos definitely prefer this guy, Paul has started to use arrows and make his titles more click baity, ashrams really
Jeb Brooks uploaded a 747-8 first class but on Korean Air if it interests you hahaha
But Frankfurt is still better for transfer than Charles de gaulles or Heathrow, imho...
I visited BA a few years ago during winter. I travelled to santiago, chile with AF on their longest flight. And then took an air canada flight over the andes towards BA. It has a very nice european vibe to the city.
I flew that airlines from Denver to Frankfurt. Business Class I have no complaints. The seats were great, they recline slept for 5 hours. They also have great care packages too.
Nice video Neol. I love seeing videos onboard the 747-8 as they truely are the most beautiful (and final :( :( ) version of the Queen of the Skies. Pity about the flight being in the dark, though, as those those wings/engines provide for some beautiful wing views.
Great video as usual. I always enjoy them 👍🏻🥰
I love these magnificent planes.Excellent flight report
Thank you, and I always enjoy your massive flight videos.
I'm in and out of Frankfurt Langen regularly. Sometimes it feels as if I have walked to my destination.
9:43 that's a lot of noels in the mirror 😂 great video anyways. I've travelled on Lufthansa from Munich to LAX and it was brilliant. I highly recommend that flight
avian lightning9 yeah LH 456..
I travelled from Munich to Lax last april
Noel the food looked fantastic...the servers seemed attentive and that double-decker was massive..overall I loved this trip as much as you did! The flying kit looks cool..fingers crossed!
Just a quick one they are not called *servers* they are called cabin crew
Great Audit, it's very special to get the shots through passport control...priceless! I was at EZE a year ago.
I flew on a 747 400 from klm in the upper deck right after the upper deck. Talk about leg room, great seats and service.
Thanks for the review. I'm flying with the Lufthansa 747-8 in December and wanted to get an overview of their product.
When I fly Lufthansa business out of LAX, I always make sure it is a 7478i so that I don’t have to shove my feet into a box. Lufthansa has some of the best amenities , their new samsonite kit is loaded!
Btw if you had time you should’ve checked out their lounge with an a la carte restaurant (I think near B gates?)
Watching this in December 2020 is like watching a video about airline history. Then, airports were crowded and no distance was needed.
Thanks for the Vlog. I would have loved to see the stew you have in the lounge.
I flew business class, FRA-BKP on a Lufthansa 747-400, I was main deck near the front and with the narrowing of the fuselage I had a center seat with an aisle on either side, very convenient indeed. But what was a little bit of a surprise was I was right on top of the nose gear and when it retracted after takeoff it locked in place with such a bang I thought my fillings were going to eject. Other than that, superb service on this 10 hour flight.
Love your reviews! Palermo is beautiful! Just as impressed you are when I flew LH to EZE!
Thanks for this. business class looked a little tired.
Angus McLay all European legacy carries are now behind the Asian and Middle Eastern airlines
Burning Wang yes unless you count Swiss as a European legacy.
The new business class is basically overdue. They want to implement it in the 777x. However, that plane is delayed.
Portugal Tap are using the New A330 Neo Business , new, fresh and comfortable. Not sure of any other European carrier
De Au Qantas has not ordered the 777X. They are scheduled to decide between the Airbus A350-1000 and 777X for the Sunrise Project at the end of 2019.
Another fantastic video Noel! Looks like you had a great flight on LH, always nice to be on the upper deck! The food all looks pretty good.
Shame about the seats and 2-2 configuration, IMHO 5 star Airlines can never have such a lay-out in business class.
A bit weird to only get a top of a pyjama..
Brendan
TY for the Excellent Videos
These flights pass daily over my house in Algeria, especially at night..roma with ITA ...It is a wonderful feeling when I am watching you via Radar Fly..You can imagine the long period, a strange feeling mixed with fear and pleasure
Excellent as usual Noel 👍
Great video as always
Well, looks like I'll be heading to Buenos Aires this dinner time! cheers Noel for great content my man!
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I always dreamed of flying with one of these first-class aircrafts, like Lufthansa. I am here 'cos I saw a video from a vlogger named James Asquith. Content-wise, very great videos.
more videos like these please!
I love the beds on the Lufthansa 747-8 in upper deck. Best when traveling with someone but I sleep better up there than on any other aircraft.
Their 747-8 is nice. I remember I went on it 4 1/2 years ago to go to India. I did Boston to Frankfurt, then Frankfurt to Mumbai. They were both 747s and the service and seats were very great.
I fly to Frankfurt often and it’s an incredible place, huge and complex, when possible I always fly with Lufthansa.
I set up my first international trip for next spring, so of course I'm flying top deck on a 747! Flying across the country by myself has been a bit of a weird thing, so going to Germany will be interesting to say the least.
That's amazing value for business, I'd expect to pay that much alone just for economy on long haul
Flying upstairs on the 747-400s and 800s are always nice...
Yes, walking in Frankfurt is a long walk. .Being in the Bus. Class Lounge is really nice. Being connected to boarding for the 747-400 there in nice...
Wish you could have interviewed your seat mate. No matter if there was a language barrier. She was a cutie.
Did this flight last year in the same seat! Agree with you about the walk in FRA those gates are MILES away!
Brilliant what a great video
Nice travel inspiration video with map illustration Noel Philips. Subscribed for more videos 💂
4:52 ^^ That flight attendant is hilarious: "Kommn se rein, könn se rausgucken" is a German idiom meaning something like "Come in so you can peer out" ^^
New subscriber, you do some very top class work imo
Amazing deal
Amazing
Flying on the upper deck of the 747 is a treat. Haven't done it with LH, but a have done a number of times on KLM. The Queen of the Skies will be missed.
Nah, the -8 will be around for awhile.
Great video, cheers!
How do you get these business class air fares? :D I can never find business fares for anything like some of thd fares you get!!! Love the videos though thanks for posting!!!
Brilliant trip report. The seat wasn't good enough for such a long flight. However it's always cool to be on a 747 on the upper deck
nice video; indeed the BC of this 'old jumbo' looks tired, but still a good service in Lufthansa
Nice coverage
Fun video! I’ve flown Lufthansa a few times, 747-400 w a transfer in FRA to A-340. Lufthansa is always professional. But FRA is the worst experience for transfer (Term A to C). Long long walks, I mistakenly left the secure area, there were no toilets I could find in A. Munich is much better.
Hi Noel! What do you use to make the flight path animation? :)
I flew with Lufthansa once from Frankfurt to San Francisco on a 747-8. I normally fly from Edinburgh-Heathrow-San Francisco with British Airways but went via Frankfurt for a change. I was very impressed with the whole experience and I might fly with them again sometime.
"some time" lol....
Awesome video. Lufthansa is always decent, never outstanding but just a safe option.
Flew the 748 flight from LAX to FRA and back in Oct 2013. Don’t remember the tail registrations but the bird to FRA smelled like a brand new car. Wonderful aircraft and memory’s .
I remember going to that lounge last time I was in Frankfurt on my way to Denver, I also flew on a 747-8!
Hi Noel
Upstairs where you sat in business, do they serve meals front to back?
Thanks
Great Video 👍
what video editing do you use
Yes Frankfurt Airport is "crazy." Well put.
What did you give to the crew when you went off, was that a tip?
Noel gives stickers, same picture used for his youtube profile picture.
Maybe one of the best premium economy classes on the market right now. Of course, food and service are quiet brilliantly organised
I looked so forward to this report and I am not disappointed! Thanks Noel! You will be the biggest RUclips reporter one day! Greetings from Germany and thanks again 😎
Where have the full flight videos gone Noel? Would love to see them back on here. Very useful as a tool to help me work on my studies
Upstairs on a 747... welcome to the club, although when I did this I didn't do it in quite as much style as i flew regular economy on virgin atlantic. still got to live a childhood dream to sit up there though, but I think business class on a flight this long is wise and I am considering saving for similar when I next do a flight this long.
Frankfurt is just huge. I had to regularly walk the entire length of Terminal 1, for a connecting flight I did. It was a fast paced 45 minute "walk", definitely didn't need the gym that day.
Thanks for sharing!
Every time I watch your old videos Im amazed at no one wearing masks. Its like its become normal now. Crazy to think a month or so after this video was made COVID would slowly start spreading out of China.
Great video, as always!
donde estan los videos completos de los vuelos?;(
I hear you Noel, have been through Frankfurt a couple of times and it's crazy. Even went in and out of security checks twice by accident lol
I like Lufthansa...they kindly upgraded my son and I from premium economy to business class from FRA to DFW a few years ago when I took my son to Dallas on a surprise trip for Wrestlemania 32...i wrote down on some paper not to mention Dallas as I my son thought we were going to Bangkok to visit my old work colleague and it was all a big surprise....the LH check in staff member at DUB loved it and told my son to sit over the seats be ause he has a few boring security questions to ask me...when my son went over to the seats the Irish LH member of staff... said he too loved the WWE and thought I was a brilliant dad.... When it came to boarding the flight to FRA he scanned our boarding passes and said to my son..."Enjoy Bangkok master Ethan then said to me..."Good luck and hope you have a great flight to Dallas" silently... When it came to the Dallas flight the following day our premium economy tickets were ripped up and we were issued with business class tickets.... Id like to think the Irish LH staff member had something to do with our upgrade... I do know though if a flight is full you have a great chance on being upgraded from premium economy to business class than economy to business class if you're not a high tier member with a airline. Whatever it was... Lufthansa made my surprise trip so much more better.
It gives me so much nostalgia to see how it was a while ago without covid
its great to have a lounge then to the plane.
I am 16 when I grow up I will be a commercial flight commander pilot, it is the LH 510 and one of these days I will go to the ezeiza airport and see it very close.
Looked pretty good I've flown upstairs on a British Airways 747 400 a long time ago and it wasn't as nice as this... cheers
is it me or walking own a jetbridge to a plane the most exciting thing?
