It may not be up to me to decide my itinerary (it is through the State Dept), but in case I do have a choice, it would be nice to have some notions of my options.
Hi. LH to RUH is fine in C. It is flown on an A330 which has new C and also F. The service is great with tablecloths and a four course meal with great choices. Unlike Saudia this route is like any LH route i.e. definitely not dry.

I have also flown LH Y on the same route and sworn I will never do it again. With Y I'd prefer Saudia even without the drinks.
