Lufthansa, the German flag carrier, is one of the biggest airlines in Europe. It flies to more than 190 destinations in 81 countries across all permanently inhabited continents. Renowned for quality services, this legacy carrier provides optimum comfort during the journey. Lufthansa flights have four different cabin classes, offering a range of amenities. Below is a detailed description of these and what amenities and facilities are offered to passengers on them.
Economy
By booking Economy tickets, passengers can remain assured of comfortable seating. There is a variation in seats, depending on whether the flight is short or long. Short-haul air services give more legroom as the seat backs are slim, which enable flyers to stretch their legs and feel comfortable. Aircraft, pressed on long-haul routes, have 40-cm wide seat cushions and adjustable headrests.
In-flight entertainment is delivered to Economy passengers either on the seat-back screens or via the mobile app of the air service provider. The former can be enjoyed on long-haul routes whereas the latter is available on select medium-haul flights.
On-board meals in the class are inclusive of a cocktail service along with a 3-course meal, out of which two are hot main courses. On long flights, a second meal is also provided as are snacks. A number of beverages are available onboard, including alcoholic, and cold and hot non-alcoholic drinks.
Premium Economy
This class is available only to travellers, who have booked tickets for long-distance Lufthansa flights. It features spacious seating and more legroom, and comes with a double armrest and cocktail table on seat handle, and a detachable remote control for the entertainment system. The Premium Economy in-flight entertainment allows passengers to view up to 100 films in eight languages and choose from 200 TV programmes and 300 music CDs.
Business
A Business Class flight ticket booking with the German carrier can be made to fly over short, medium and long distances. Short-haul air services, operated across Europe, come with good personal space and an empty middle seat so that passengers can work comfortably. The long-haul flights have seats, which can transform into a 2-metre long bed.
A range of delectable dishes is served to Business flyers with varied choices of drinks. Pastries, salads, fine wines and a number of dishes from around the globe allow travellers to enjoy their favourite food. To provide more sleeping time on short-haul intercontinental flights that operate after 8 pm and last 6 to 8 hours, the attendants ask for the requirements from passengers. They, however, bring in the items only when others are asleep so that the cabin lights can be switched off earlier than usual.
First
The First Class on Lufthansa provides the greatest level of comfort, relaxation and entertainment, among all classes. Ergonomic seats with intuitive controls to help them take the shape of a fully flat 2-metre long bed are supplemented by a mattress topper and duvet. Well-laid spacious washrooms with branded toiletries are available to all First Class flyers. On the menu is a range of top class wines, including four red and four white variants, and Michelin Star chefs create the delicacies to be served onboard. Passengers in this elite class can also savour caviar, which has become synonymous with the carrier.
