I'm a new FT subscriber after finding this amazing website via a link.
I have been looking at the Lufthansa Business Class seating with keen interest since I will be taking a trip to South Africa from the US in January,2015.
I would really appreciate any advice that you seasoned road(sky) warriors can provide regarding seat selection and which flights have the new Biz Class.
Itinerary is ORD>MUC on the 330-300, MUC>CPT on the 340-600, returning on JNB> FRA on the 380-800, FRA>ORD on the 747-800.
I believe I will be on the new Biz seating from ORD>MUC and on FRA>ORD?
Still uncertain about the 340-600 and 380-800 flights though.
January 21 outbound, February 3-4 homebound.
Really hoping for lie flat seating since this a really long haul itinerary for me but my flights are not at all flexible since I am on a tour.
I am really eager for advice on which seats are the best regardless of whether or not I have lie flat seats or not.
Can anyone tell me what kind of plugs are in the Biz seats? US plugs,Empower plugs,etc? I hope to try to use my travel CPAP machine if the FA don't give me a hard time!!! I called the Lufthansa medical desk and had a VERY rude person when I asked. Could not find out what kind of plugs are in Biz class as this person had a totally bad attitude. I guess I will just cover my head with the blanket and hope for the best??
