I don't know why many people still love LH, but even their new C product is sup-par to pretty much everyone else, and their Y seat is barely bearable. Not even to add that any short and mid haul flights are really terrible due to their seat. There are reasons why pretty much all growth within LH group has happened at LX, and not LH.. (not that LX is better in Y, or that their lounges are better or anything, they just don't have a huge line of inherited liabilities like LH..
People like LH, cause they are an old airline and consistently in the top 10 picks for safety ratings. To a lot of people flying isn't purely about the soft or hard product alone.

That said, I'm taking my own HU leg this summer. So far I am very impressed with their local office in YYZ. Very professional and helpful! We shall see how the flights go.
