I flew on this carrier on the 5th freedom routes(short flights) on the airline’s Airbus A340−300 and Boeing 747 – 400. Hardware on these aircraft are dated, nothing to shout about. On the other hand, the service on both flights I had were pretty good. I hope to fly on this airlines’ Airbus A380 and Boeing 747 – 8 flights, as I was told that they are pretty decent especially on the 747. If you are flying on the airline’s Airbus A340−300 or Boeing 747 – 400, don’t expect much from the cabin’s products. As a member of the star alliance, you can earn mileage points flying with any of its fellow partners and they are good to fly on domestic routes in Germany. This is probably one of the better European Airlines, it has a long history along with the likes of British Airways and KLM, so rest assured you be taken care of by the airline especially when things go wrong.
