My younger son and I have become somewhat accustomed to 2D and F, which have great space.

I like beer in a bottle and German wine, so good scores there! The food has always been hit or miss - I would quite prefer something warm on shorter flights or even a choice, so BA have it there.

I like the Lounges in Frankfurt, the nice premium check in area and priority bag delivery seems to work well.

One thing I have really often found in the last few years though - they often undercut BA intra-Europe J significantly in pricing; even looking ahead to the Faro at new year, they are well over £200 less than BA just now!
Yes! LX and LH business sometimes can be cheaper than the expensive economy fares or hardly more expensive. I managed a Business Class return LHR-MUC-ATH with LH for about 350 GBP, cheaper than many Y flights on BA to ATH!
