Very solid operations this summer. Not only majority of flights are operating, but most are on time. FR seats are not worse than NEK. I guess for most non-status passengers the only difference with travel experience is a complimentary bottle of water on Lufti...
Plus the mask, which Frau Förster, Executive Board Member, fears it may put LH at a competitive disadvantage.
Even for status it’s not much different because you can access the same contract lounges with cards or cash.
ASR isn’t free, just like FR. FR Biz Plus fares includes the exit row.
But don’t forget you’re looking at this from someone based outside the the LH Group controlling cartel. They don’t have a choice to fly FR ex-FRA or MUC, it’s all sealed up and the only solace is to pile on the pounds with the lacklustre buffet.
