LH vs LX Business Class ORD- DEL
I am flying ORD-DEL in C. Contemplating LH vs LX.
LX pros- shorter connection time at ZRH
And since I still have not learned how to make LH C class seats "lie flat" perhaps LX would be better.
LX A330
LH 747
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

LX C is only nice on the A340.

Any updated thoughts/recommendations on the OP's question? I'm flying to DEL in November and am debating between LH and LX (C class).
Thank you in advance for your help!

What would your routing be, ex-IAH or also ex-ORD? I would suggest that ZRH/MUC are easier to negotiate on Transfers than FRA, but without knowing the exact routing (and therefore transfer times), it's not so easy to advise you.

There's an option of going via Vienna on Austrian, too (leaves AMS 9:50). I don't know how their C Class is, though.
Going via FRA would get you a 744, via ZRH a 333 (VIE would be a 763).
Personally, I'd be tempted to go LX, OS then LH (not a fan of FRA). LX is a lie flat seat, OS and LH are angled at 160 degrees.
