-Lufthansa (through Munich or Frankfurt) on a 343, 744 or 346 overseas
-Continental (direct) on a 752 overseas
-Swiss (through Zurich) on a 333 overseas
The CO flight is my initial preference since it is direct, but it is difficult to find saver business award availability on that flight. From reviewing numerous FT threads, I'm sensing LX>OS>LH, but definitely could use some advice here.
Thanks in advance.
