Personally, find LH businesss service and food great but the C seats , on all their planes, are not very comfy for me and up to main competition. Also, having flown SQ's and QF's 380s in all classes , except F (but as per the LH one , all on the initial back upper deck ) find the LH's 380 surprisingly not as
silent as the other ones. May be are the different engines, but as this , with space , is one of the main things as a passenger you will notice the first time
you fly the 380 , I found the relative high level of noice on LH 380 unexpectedly and negatively surprising (for the seat , I knew what i was getting, so no surprises).
Thank you for your insightful reply. I would prefer window but this was the only bulkhead seat in the minicabin. In first, I have found bulkhead not that important but in business class, I have found similar benefits as per your comment.

I am curious: is the LH A380 noisier than other aircraft per se or did you mean this compared to other A380s in other fleets?
