What will happen: in my opinion the quality gap between the two airlines will narrow as LH level of quality will go down and that of AF will (hopefully) go up a bit. Not sure AF will surpass LH, seen from today I rather doubt it, but in the airline industry many things can radically change in a matter of a couple of years.
