I sat upstairs on Lufthansa's 747400 in Business Class, and it was awesome! My ticket was initially booked in Economy, but a week before the flight I got an email offering a $900 fee to upgrade on the redeye flight from New York to Frankfurt.

Lufthansa is Germany's largest airline along with one of the few carriers still operating the 747400 (nicknamed Queen of the Skies). Its remaining fleet of 8 doubledeckers won't be around much longer, with rumors of a retirement imminent around 2026.

The 747400's in Lufthansa's fleet do not offer First Class, unlike the 7478's. And honestly the Business Class product in the 400 is unimpressive and outdated. Frankfurtbased competitor Condor Airlines offers a much better product and service for half the booking price.

I hope you enjoy my comprehensive review/trip report!
