I decided to fly home from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles via Washington Dulles, Lisbon, and Frankfurt…as one does. The reason: to fly on a very special Lufthansa aircraft one more time.
To be honest, I wanted to fly via Zurich on the new SWISS A350 or via Vienna on the Austrian 787-9, but no space opened. Instead, I found space on TAP Air Portugal from Washington to Lisbon, operated by an Airbus A321, connecting same-day to Frankfurt on a Lufthansa A321 with a drastically different “business class” seat!
With first class award space now a relic of the past, I had to book business class on Lufthansa, but that offers the opportunity to try Project FOX, the new onboard soft product, and to try it from Frankfurt rather than an out-station.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
