As far as the summer goes, its more favorable due to jet streams for the 757-200. The winter winds are what makes the trip a problem.
This was back in 1991/92 and if it makes any difference it was Condor -- which at the time was part of Lufthansa.
It was definitely the -300 model though as anyone who has flown on one of those knows how long the aircraft is compared to a -200
