Thanks for sharing. The best price in SEK that I find is 12.491 SEK, which would be 1380 USD.

Add another 50 USD and you can fly Qatar instead with a proper 1-2-1 business class.

What is 4 x Status miles promo? Is it for LH?

You might be missing the point ...

Though the promo is very much invitation only, and I think it ends mid-June



The other, minor, point is the 1-2-1 configuration leaves some of us cold

Odd conclusion.

Simply pointing of that there is a better deal out there for the majortiy of the forum that aren't invited. 1300 USD is a promotion fare and so is Qatars fare at 1350. I think my information might be of value to all of those who can't earn 4x statusmiles, before they jump on this deal.

And your other point... just because you don't like 1-2-1 that doesn't mean it's not what flyers generally prefer. 1-2-1 is a selling point. I don't think the carriers would waste space on it if it wasn't.

Gosh! you are touchy !!!

I expressed an opinion which was not congruent with yours in pointing out gently that what is best for you is not necessarily a universal good. The "proper business-class" you attribute to QR suggests that TK's, BA's, LH's etc are somehow improper, false: which is a silly notion.

Comfort in aeroplanes is a wildly subjective matter - so please accept that I'm foolish in having a mild preference for the old-fashioned forward facing arrangements that give lots of lateral space.

As you grow up, you'll find that not everyone shares your view of the world (or indeed of aircraft seating arrangements ): and when others express opinions you do not agree with it's best just to quietly to shake your head at their stupidity...

Again, I don't think we're on the same level here.

Of course there will be exceptions to everything, but that does not mean there isn't a consensus on what's good or bad. I'm sure there are some modest people out there who prefer J over F for whatever reason as well. It would be extremely tedious if we didn't generalize and took every subjective opinion into considersation before posting. Every post would have to have a whole bunch of disclaimers if we did.

This really is getting tedious . I pointed out, gently, that there are some who prefer an alternative version of seating to the one you proclaimed as "the proper one".

No-one is asking you to examine all possible opinions: but it's probably better, certainly less inflammatory, if you are more circumspect in declaring your own opinion as a universal truth.

So, basically the word "proper" infront of "1-2-1" is what set you off. And I'm the "touchy" one...

You can google "SSSS", "air lounge of the heroes", and you will hear more on the BBC news tomorrow about the supreme leader (he gets crowned), you know how this works in trick-it, we cannot give answers...

Ok, giving you a clue:
