I did FRA-JNB on their new A340-600 with the new seats and loved it. Makes BizElite feel like Economy Plus.

Would you be able to compare the new business class seat on SAA with their horizontal beds in First class on SAAs 747-400 between LHR and JNB?

I, too, am going to JNB in Sept and wondered about FRA-JNB business. I am holding an UC award ticket on VS for LHR-JNB (suites by then?), but FRA-JNB would give me a better choice of arrival/departure days and cost 20K less.
