The recent threads about certain carriers inspired me to ask, related to long-haul flights only (e.g. Asia to Europe):
-
Who’s economy class offers the best value for money?
-
Who’s business class offers the best value for money?
-
Who’s business class is cheapest (regardless of service)?
I usually take Lufthansa from HK since I have their Frequent Traveller card (one level up from the normal Miles & More).
Usually I buy an economy class ticket and try to upgrade to business since I have sufficient miles, but the last two trips the business class was overbooked and I was waitlisted for an upgrade (only a certain amount of seats are anyhow allocated to upgrades) - of course I never made it in there so I ended up in the cattle class.
Considering that I need to change twice (HK and FRA) I really consider flying CI directly from TPE to FRA next time, perhaps on business.
