First impression of the CRJ900 in flight? It is really quiet. The loudest thing I could hear during take off was the air vent in the overhead panel. I chose badly on the seating, all the views were out of the right hand side of the plane so hopefully some good nighttime pictures on the landing into Munich Sunday morning.
The flight time is a little over one hour. We are off the ground in good time and quickly the seatbelt sign is off and the IFL is starting the drinks service. Of course it is another sparkling wine
There are only three rows in front of the curtain for a total of three passengers in business. This plane is a 2-2 config and Lufthansa block one of the seats so you get the pair to yourself. Row one has the toilet to the right and so is just a left hand pair of seats.
Food service followed without delay and on this leg it was a chilled grilled chicken and Parmesan dish with a green bean salad. This was accompanied by a chocolate and, maybe, cherry desert. Again very nice, and all gone.
It was gone so fast in fact that I forgot to take a photo!
Top ups were quickly offered and I went for the coffee and a cognac again.
The flight crew then took the trolley down the length of the plane to do the economy buy on board offering. Once they got back my food tray was cleared and another top up offered, and, for once, declined… I must be sickening for something
One of the crew then offered out chocolates down the complete length of the plane. These were a pleasant small milk chocolate bar with the Lufthansa logo on a central boss. Chocolates, for economy! BA can you see what your peers are doing?
The toilet next to row one is ridiculously, hilariously, small. Having somehow crammed my two meter tall, 100+ kilo frame into this space I then have to get out again, and the door folds inwards. I believe I have potential as a contortionist as my sunset career!
Ten minutes to landing and the business class chocolates made an appearance and and equally rapid disappearance inside me.
And minutes later we are on the ground exactly on time.
A lovely crew again, and an excellent in flight experience, two out of two for Lufthansa.
