After arriving at Frankfurt from Dubai on the Lufthansa B747-400, I made my way to Lufthansa First Class Terminal. This is not just a first-class lounge but a completely separate terminal with restaurant dining, a shower and bedroom facility, cigar room, and possibly the world’s largest whisky selection in the bar.
I rode a Porsche Panamera as part of the Lufthansa first class lounge transfer to the plane. To my surprise, the Frankfurt to Los Angeles flight is operated by B747-8 in Retro livery (D-ABYT).
Once onboard, I received the full Lufthansa First Class treatment in welcome amenities and champagne. After a nice takeoff with an engine view, I sat back to relax and enjoy First Class dining with caviar and a shot of vodka, followed by starters and sea bass as a main course. First Class on the Boeing 747-8 was in the nose area with good privacy. Seat 1A was even in front of the cockpit!
Enjoy the nice view over Greenland and Western USA before arriving in Los Angeles. It was a great ride with great service. At the end of the flight, I shared a good tip on how to fly Lufthansa First Class without breaking the bank.

Made me happy and sentimental, too, to see you enjoying the flight aboard the Lufthansa retro 747. My retirement and farewell flight as a Lufthansa qualified first class flight attendant took place in April 2015 aboard this aircraft after flying for 33 years as a Lufthansa flight attendant. Flying first class looked quite different in 1982, smaller seats but HUGE meals. I can still remember cutting a whole Châteaubriand from the cart right in front of the passengers and serving whole lobsters! Not to mention to serve German beer as draft beer right from the barrel. Well, times change.......every era has its face.

That is not really true. For First Class passengers on wide body aircraft there was the change from 2-2-2 to options to more space. The epic 1-2-1 configuration in blue (?), grey/silver was a quantum leap. And closed the gap to Iberia and the former LAN Chile which had 2-1-2 seats a row on the A 340.

I’ve been a Lufthansa fan ever since I first flew with them on a 747-400 about 8 years ago (My previous favorite was TWA). Now they’re the top in my mind, not only because of their great service, quality, safety, and fleet, but especially because they’re the last to fly the queen of the skies. I also love the branding: “ drive Porsche, fly Lufthansa”. Very slick. First class on a Lufthansa 747 on my bucket list for sure.

Then the man in black was on our flight, and first class let out right in front of us and there he was Johnny Cash and his entire family. I was I star shock he spoke with for a few minutes and I will never forget that and that 747 orange Braniff.

I was so lucky to get to fly on this exact airplane (D-ABYT) for my first flight on a 747. Flying on a 747 was something I dreamed of doing as a child and it was the experience of a lifetime. Because of covid the plane was basically empty and I got a whole row to myself and it felt like I was on top of the world. I couldn’t stop smiling the entire flight. I’m lucky to live under flight traffic from LA to Europe so this plane occasionally flys over my house. Sam actually captured my area at 9:42. Every time she flys over I have to drop everything I’m doing and just marvel at her. I’m grateful to have gotten the opportunity to fly on the Queen before it’s too late. I’d have to say D-ABYT definitely changed my life. I can now also say I’ve been on the same plane as Sam😂

I probably built that aircraft. I worked for Boeing for 5 years as a heavy structures mechanic in the 46-48 section, (tail section joining the pressure dome and skin laps). I also built the 41-42 section for 6 months (nose section). Flying Lufthansa 1st class has always been on my bucket list. They in my opinion are the premier experience for any airline company. I envy you for the opportunity and am grateful for their hospitality of your shared experience. I know they wined and dined you for clout and that's ok but as an Boeing employee who was never even allowed to walk through a finished product; to see this is exciting never the less. Best wishes to Lufthansa and the dying undefeated "Queen of the Skies" 747. P.S. please stop calling it "retro". The -800 is as modern and luxurious of an aircraft the world will ever see. It's sad it's a dead program.

I flew First Class with BA four years ago and the difference here is monumental.. Staff are attentive, you're being treated well.. My flight, boarding the plane felt no different to boarding in Economy, staff were there and friendly but didn't have a huge amount of contact, on my outbound flight I didn't even get an amenity bag, neither did my daughter. The only time I really felt like anything special was being able to eat with my daughter at a table between us, setting this up was the only time the staff really made me feel like I was paying for something extra. Fly First on BA was such a let down that I will never do it again, would rather save some money and fly Business.

WOW Sam, the life you lead! 👑🤗 Couldn't help but contemplate the other end of the spectrum as you were landing to LAX, of the many homeless people in L.A., as shown in the KZbin videos from GiV -- German in Venice. It gives one pause as to the extreme options offered to humans in this life, based often (not always!) on life choices. Obviously, you've made some great choices.

My last LH 748 first class flight was Dec 31 from PVG to FRA. It was empty on the nose of the cabin. Upon arrival, I received email about sars like virus since I was in Wuhan just days before… and I had only flew few times since then. Missed the 748.

Loved the video! Curious to understand how Sam sits in 1A (left side) yet external shots are all out of a right side window? Was there an empty seat on the right (in business?) where you could set up your external camera(s)?

Well spotted. External shots also show the engines and wing leading edge. His camera man obviously had a seat further in the back of the aircraft. Sam traveled first class. His crew didn't... 😆

Good obs, I went to business class and found out it was only less than 1/2 full, so I moved there to get some takeoff/landing wing shots. Best row is 8A/K in my opinion on LH 747-8

Love the classic Lufthansa livery with the blue stripe over the windows! I remember a flight in a Lufthansa 747-200 when I was a kid, also first class and it was in the front of the nose. But things looked VERY different back then. Everything was beige and brown :)

Thanks for the vid. Actually my experience with LH wasn't great so far. I flew many times with them. But allmost everytime they had delays or cancellations. •Technical problems with the plain. •pilots are on strike. •flight attendant are on strike. •ground staff are on strike. •air traffic controllers are on strike. All of them have different contracts and unions. So at least four time a year you are likely to get hit by one of their strikes. I understand and accept their labour rights as they are working human beings....so I am. But with all of the costs and financial harms the passanger get left allone. Additionally the staff is impolite and respectless. The past years before pandemic I used LH allmost weekly in german domestic flights for business. The prices there were asking for were ridiculous. Almost like a cheap flight to Korea. The last straw they brought was last minute acancelled flight (again). The ground staff of LH handed me over for replacement a Train Ticket. I know it's not their fallt, so I kept polite to the lady while checking my ticket. So I asked her if she made a mistake, because LH gave me for replacement a 2nd class train ticket....which costs around 20 bucks that time. She said it is right because I "only" had a 2nd class flight ticket (obviously for a 50 min. Flight). But this "only 2nd class ticket costs several hundrets bucks! So it was my first time I get mad on an airport after hundret flights. And it was my last time flying with LH. Within Germany I travel only by train since them. For any other flights I would rather chop my legs off but never fly with that unreliable, unprofessional, rude scamers anytime. Even if I have to transfer. Alltough I'm living 15 Min away from FRA Airport. For most internationale flight I use THY, Qatar. But LH is just a joke. Sorry for bother you....I hope you enjoyed LH anyway.
