Join me on a flight with Lufthansa in Business Class on the upper deck of a Boeing 747-8 from Frankfurt to Johannesburg. Watch till the end for some incredible video footage.

We'll experience Lufthansa's Business Class on this 10 hour flight from South Africa to Europe. This video highlights the Lufthansa Business Class seat, the Lufthansa Business Class food, the Lufthansa Business Class amenities, Lufthansa's inflight entertainment, and Lufthansa's onboard service.

Flying the Boeing 747 – dubbed the Queen of the Skies – is always an epic experience and Lufthansa is one of the last remaining airlines in the world that still flies this aircraft type, with 27 Boeing 747s in its fleet. The Boeing 747 has been a bestseller with airlines: between the first 747 flight on February 9th 1969 and the end of the 747 production line in 2022, Boeing has built 1,560 B747 aircraft. The Boeing 747-8 is the latest, quieter, more economical, and more environmentally friendly version of the famous aircraft type. The B47-8 features similar engines & cockpit technology as the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It is also the world’s longest airplane with a fuselage length of 251 feet (77 m).

But while the Boeing 747 is a marvel of technology (I always feel privileged to fly in a 747, especially when seated on the upper deck), Lufthansa’s Business Class does not match the grandeur of its flagship aircraft. The cabin configuration (2-2-2 on the lower deck and 2-2 on the upper deck) and the lack of privacy are disappointing and lightyears behind the Business Class product offered by the carrier’s competitors. The good news is that Lufthansa has introduced a new Business Class seat and cabin layout – called Alegris – on its Airbus A350 fleet.
