Thanks! 
I genuinely do worry whether or not flying F will ruin my J experience. I know of a certain FTer on here that has now come down with this....uhh, what do we call it?....standard of flying? (I was thinking "illness" but wow, what a first world issue)
I mean, I've done CX F and that didn't ruin my J experience so here's hoping.
I hope my love...err, disease with BR stays. Less YQ

I'd say I'm pretty religious about flying BR. That being said, canadiancow's experience with LH had me pretty surprised so my expectations from this trip are next to nil.
So if I don't get a cranky German FA, I think I'll be OK.
Here's my perfect airline.
Rouge FA's. BR's Taiwanese food and hard product (yes, I know this is something Cow and I disagree on), and BR's plane. Or maybe even "just"
CX F food. That was pretty good too.Can't have them all. The damn Pokemon lied to me.
I'm thinking ANA or NH after this.
I'm going to go broke doing this.

I disliked CX's crew. I found their service to be cold. That and their cabins are too warm for my liking.
That being said, I'd take them over AC in a heartbeat. So where am I jetting to last minute?
Somewhere that I can redeem on AP

I did it
I know this thread has gone quite in-depth about some of the items brought up in discussion, but just wanted to share that I'm the guy who ended up booking YYZ-AMS in LH J/F as a result of this thread.
I just got back home few hours ago and will be posting a trip summary in the other thread along with pictures.
In case you guys are curious, you can search for #amsjot on Instagram. My adventures included experiencing J ad F in LH; walking around in Amsterdam, some pubic transit, IRROPS at AMS (came really closing to missing MUC-YYZ), LH limo service at MUC and trying 9 different wines in under 8 hours.
Regardless of what some people mentioned (feeling sad etc.), I thoroughly enjoyed every single second of my trip, would definitely do it again. Who knows, maybe even this coming weekend
Thanks to everyone from this forum; I'm learning as I go along and am really glad to be part of this community.
Gonna hit the bed now, back to work tomorrow.

My Wednesday night in Vegas, however, was booked late enough that I had to run out of the office, home to "pack", and then to the airport. I was through security after boarding was in process.

I'm jetting off to Toronto this weekend. But it's not very last minute. It was booked 7 days in advance.
