Just flew Lufthansa C from FRA to HKG and back to MUC and was pleasantly surprised with a mattress and different blanket. Turns out it is part of the dream collection for flights 10,5 hours+ (https://runwaygirlnetwork.com/2018/0...usiness-class/).
Along with blanket there is also a set of very cheap looking hotel/spa slippers and a vanlaack pyama top (no pants...).
I don't care much about the slippers and vanlaack thing but the mattress and blanket are much needed and great improvements. Finally something good after years and years of declining user experience. But why is this only offered on flights over 10,5 hours? Lufthansa should offer the mattress on all long-haul flights, can't cost that much to add that little mattress and really improves the user experience and sleep.
I have considered taking the mattress so I can take it with me on shorter LH flights

Is there some consistency by now? Is it all flights >10.5 hours? Or just "night flights", with all the ambiguity surrounding what makes a night flight be a night flight?

HND-MUC gets it and it’s a dayflight
MUC-PEK gets it and it’s below 10 hours
etc.

I flew Business on LH 507 (GRU-FRA) on 01/01/2019. It is a night flight, departing 19h45m, local time (GMT - 2), and arriving at FRA at 10h15min (flight time aprox. 11 to 12 hours). There was the mattress, but no shirt or slippers. The amenity kit content was the traditional one, with L'Occitane products, and at least was not inside an ecobag, but inside something like a pencil case (By the way, nothing against ecobags, but for shopping, LOL).

Am I correct in understanding that the mattress and sleep shirt are now provided on all long-haul routes? Specifically, FRA-PEK? And if so, is that on both day and night flights, or just night?
Also, is the sleep shirt actually comfortable and worth taking? If so, will the crew let me take one for my (female) partner instead of one for me? I'll probably be flying in a t-shirt anyway, so not too bothered about wearing it on the flight...

“Dream collection” still only on longer routes, e.g. US west coast yes, east coast no.
The shirt is more comfy than the F one and crews are usually happy to fulfill requests, as long as they are not short of shirts of a certain size/type.
