Cool F Class Photo/Video Trip Report: FRA - YVR on LH

Hello and welcome to another trip report. As with my previous TR, I have included some video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riRgReGxuhA

Route: FRA-YVR
Equipment: A340-600
Carrier: LH
Seat: 1A


After a quick check-in at the main terminal building, I proceeded to the Lufthansa first class terminal where they have separate security and passport control. Around 11 a.m. the lounge was pretty empty. After a bite to eat, I just watched some TV to kill time. With about 30 minutes before departure one of the attendant escorts you downstairs where you retrieve your passport and board the vehicle that takes you to the plane. This time the ride was on Mercedes G55.


Pre-departure meal


LH first class terminal


LH492 to Vancouver


Amenity kit


Refreshment


Fried knuckle of Veal Carpaccio with marinated Chantrelles


Seasonal Leaf Salad with Herb Mushrooms, Pumpkin Juliennes and sun-dried Tomatoes


Braised Veal Cheek on Radicchio and mashed Celery


Chestnut Mousses Tartlet with marinated Plums

The theme of the second meal service was “Viva Mexico”


Dialogue of Bell Pepper and Turkey with creamy Pine Nut Sauce / Tortilla Chips w/ Mango and Tomato Salsa


Achiote Corn-fed-Poulard wrapped in Bamboo Leaf presented with Citrus Salad and fried Polenta


Chocolate and Chili Tart w/ Fresh Fruit

Conclusion: Another great flight on LH - good food and service!

Really nice photos. I enjoyed the video, it seemed to take ages for you to get to the plane. Must be honest, dreadful music!

Nice, I wonder how long it will be until LH refits the new F on their A346 fleet, also how did you like YVR airport, It's my home airport, so I'm just wondering.

I love that for the first time on FT in a TR from LH FCT at 5:54mins it seem that the limo delivers you to the plane and parks in front of what seems to be rubbish bins ("FSG") !!

Either way, I'm looking forward to my first limo ride soon.

thanks for sharing

Sounds like Oktoberfest oompah band music to me. OK after about 5 litres of Lowenbrau

Food looks good though.
