It does still show up at Google Flights, but then the price goes up when proceeding.

May I ask, what aircrafts do you have in your itineraries on long haul flights? In my case it's A350 in both directions but I heard that B777 showed up on some dates. Is this true?

So I booked the last end of scheduled flights Via FRA one way and MUC the other. I have a 747-400 via FRA (that will changes as they have been retired) and A350 via MUC.

Awesome. I would love to get in on that booking, could you share dates. I can’t find anything. 😅

Thr fare is gone by the looks of it. There was a 20 min window when this was posted. They took it down quickly. I followed the usual advise book first think later. Also helps that this is a Fully Flexible fare but still in P

OK, thanks. Great booking. Would this might be corrected as error fare?

Off topic: Does anyone have details about reopening of LH FCT I Frankfurt or LX FCL in Zürich?

I saw the post this morning but passed on this "offer" given (i) the uncertainty about being able to fly to Ukraine, (ii) uncertain availability and schedules of positioning flights, (iii) the uncertainty about being able to enter Korea, (iv) the number of tickets I have "on ice" or already confirmed/booked, (v) I loathe LH P class (I need to earn with TK M&S)

Good luck to those expecting to be able to rebook the dates later without re-calc. of the fare. It might appear as being fully flexible but in reality it is not (unless you are prepared to pay up-fare or wait several months for your refund).

Fortunately, there's always emergency exit, i.e. cancelation, which is free of charge in case of this fare (according to details of reservation).
Considering low price of this ticket, it's not bad and rather low-risk "investment"

I booked this because it had free cancellation and changes. I also booked for the end of scheduled so changing it forward wouldn't be possible. Now looking forwards to see if South Korea is open next October/November.

It's open now, with quarantine.

LH does not have B777 in its passenger fleet, so it would have been operated by Korean.

747-400 upper deck both long segments. Via FRA with short stopovers both directions. Steal of a year?

Not yet, but guess they are supposed to introduce B777 in 2021:

So the fare has been refilled. It is now 1200 euros. Tho it is still P-FF. Which means that you can still get the fully flexible fare for the cheapest price as non-refundable fares are more expensive.
P-FF might be a new thing for LH as they refilled it under it again. ,

I would put my money on the 747-400 being retired by that point. They have been talking about retiring them but keeping 747-8. Let's see if they will still be around.
