Also considering MUC-SFO on the 22nd just to escape this weather a bit sooner.

Any thoughts on LH's product in comparison? I've recently dumped BA as my primary carrier...
If you flew with BA on CW, you'd be disappointed with LH. Their business seats are worse than BA's. However, UA new business is good. And if you book US, There is a chance of 1/4 that you get the new seats. Some say they are even better than the BA CW and they are equal to BA F.
However, US older C seats (which is the same as the old UA C on the 777) are not so good, and LH is much better than these.
Here is LX availability to LAX:
F for Dec 22:
LX451 LCY0830 ZRH1120 or LX317 LHR0850 ZRH1135
LX040 ZRH1310 LAX1645
F for Dec 23:
The same as Dec 22 but with 0600/0630 departure from LON.
C for Dec 24:
The same flights as Dec 22.
No C for 22/23.
LX C is the same as LH C, and some says that the LX seats are worst than the LH seats.
However, LX F is one of the best F classes all over the world. Some say it's better that BA's!
LH MUC-SFO is also available for Dec 21.
Let us know what you deciced.
