Just returned from FRA and want to avoid it.

I heard AC cabin comfort is great but I am paranoid about their level of safety (pilot rest hours, optional use of ILS, ....). Just read the newest investigation report for AC flight 759 at SFO in July 2017....scary.

Really enjoyed AC longhaul J. The Signature lounge in YYZ in particular is very impressive.

I guess the Signature lounge it is great if you want a 3-course sit down dinner and have plenty of time, or want to visit their fancy bar. Besides that it has nothing to offer? All other facilities are in the other major lounge, which is mediocre.
Walked in, spent 3 min there and walked to the other lounge last month, in search for a shower and food that wouldn't take an hour. Or did I miss out on something?
Perhaps I just got too used to the TK lounge in IST.

I was very happy with the 777 J experience, though they had to re-inflate my seat at the beginning of the flight. Would definitely do AC again.

I mean maybe it's not as expansive as the TK lounge, but it has some of best food I've had in an airline lounge and high quality drinks. On top of that it doesn't get crowded which I put pretty high up on my lounge wish list

Seeing some F fares on LH that may be a part of this sale, as low as $3600 o/w to LAX. Not sure I'm willing to pay a >$2k premium out of pocket but some may be interested.

$3600 one way is a decent deal?!

Also can't get it to show. Price is now double on BCN-DEN. Pity, needed a good DEN flight.

"6 day minimum. Book by 14 Oct. "

And this 14 Oct was a fake .. I thought I still have time. Prices changed just "in my hands" yesterday at 2 A.M. Madrid time ...
