Hmm. They seemed to have doxxed SFO777. Ethical journalism this most certainly is not.

That being said, this was definitely a welcome TR; bringing your own plates and cutlery does sound like the sort of thing I would do if I was flying F and wanted to maintain a certain degree of refinement (of course, in my case this is strictly hypothetical). If anyone here is travelling, I'm glad it's someone who does so in as much style as SFO777.

OMG, you have a face!



Great trip report, as always SFO777. What a juxtaposition between LH and BA. Am thinking about doing LAX-FRA next week to enjoy it once more before it goes away fo the winter. I was so POed last week the F award seats disappeared on my BA flight from LHR-LAX and I had to book business class. Somehow, I think I'll groan on!

Interesting report. It feels like all airlines take a completely different approach to service during the crisis. Arguably some also cost-cutting with the explanation of COVID protection concepts...

Great report. As someone who works for an airline, it would be one thing if that was the economy meal/service but quite another for service up front. Especially sad considering it looks like Lufthansa and Air France can offer much better service and yet they don't have high amounts of COVID outbreaks, proving this is just monetary cutbacks.
