Swiss Airlines A330 Business Class New York To Zurich ZRH

Today's report comes to us via Point Me to the Plane, and showcases Swiss Airline's A330 Business class product between JFK and ZRH. As a design freak, I can't give Swiss enough credit for their business class. The modern, fresh, design elements and wood accents look incredible, and also seem very functional. The food seems to always garner high praise as well. Check it out for yourself.

Excerpt:
"I went with the fillet of beef as my main choice and I think it was the best fillet I’ve ever had in-flight…better than any Asian airline. Normally the fillet is dry or overcooked, but this was juicy, warm, and closer to medium-rare"

How Amazingly Juicy is that?

Brussels Airlines Business Class A330-300 New York To Brussels

Today we add another airline to our ever-growing directory of trip reports, with this trip report of Brussels Airlines Business Class on their staggered A330-300. This comes to us from One mile at a time, and takes us from New York to Brussels.

Here's an excerpt from the post:
"As I pulled out the tray table I realized that it’s probably the most impractical one I’ve ever seen. Both pulling it out and putting it back in was damn near rocket science."

The World's Shortest Flight [Trip Report Video]

This video comes from Seth at The Wandering Aramean, and it showcases the world's shortest scheduled commercial flight. The flight is from Westray to Papa Westray, and it's operated by Ireland's own Loganair on a Britten-Norman Islander. At under two minutes long, the captain doesn't even have time to tell you it's OK to unfasten your seatbelt...that's right, a two minute flight. I've been on subway rides longer than that. Check out the ENTIRE flight right here, below.

Air Europa A330 Business Class JFK to Madrid

This is a rather rare find. It's a trip report for the infamous Air Europa Business class on their A330. It wasn't the most luxurious trip, but it certainly was interesting and that's why I'm posting it. This comes from our friend thepointsguy.

An Excerpt from the post:
 Once I was seated, it was a good 20 minutes until a flight attendant spoke to me – or anyone else in business class. They seemed to be preparing the galley, and when a businessman asked the purser why we were late boarding, she just brushed him off and said “We will make it up in the air, sir.” The man didn’t seem happy with that answer, but let it slide.
They need to take some hints from the designers at Etihad:

Lufthansa A320 Business Class Frankfurt to Helsinki Intereurope

This video trip report comes from my friend SFFlyer123 who has a fantastic channel on Youtube with a ton more of these. In the video, SFFlyer123 gives us a peek at his ride in business on an LH flight from Frankfurt to Helsinki, and the return on their Airbus A320. Enjoy.

(Video) Lufthansa 747-4 Economy Boston-Frankfurt

I flew a similar route to this once in economy on the LH 747-4 and unlike its' airbus counterparts it does not have AVOD meaning this is a long flight without an iPad. This video comes from Youtube.


Lufthansa A330-300 First Class Dulles to Munich


This review comes to us via Points Miles and Martinis. I put an excerpt below, but the full report can be found by clicking the link below that.

"The very polished Lufthansa flight attendant approached me immediately and offered Laurent-Perrier Champagne and warm nuts which I happily accepted. In addition I was handed a Bogner amenity kit complete with van Laack pajamas. I could get used to this….."
