Lufthansa's Economy seat that's BETTER than Premium | Flight Review | Hong Kong-Frankfurt | A350-900

Join me on board Lufthansa’s Airbus A350-900 for the long-haul journey from Hong Kong to Frankfurt, where I test out what might just be the airline’s most impressive Economy Class seat to date. This flight features an extra-legroom bulkhead seat, and in this review I break down whether it truly lives up to the hype - from seat comfort and space to sleep quality on an ultra-long-haul sector. I’ll take you through the full experience, including boarding, the cabin environment, inflight entertainment, food and service, and how Lufthansa’s Economy product stacks up on one of its flagship aircraft. While the seat itself delivers in a big way, the overall experience raises some interesting questions about consistency and cohesion onboard. Update: Lufthansa refunded the seat selection costs and awarded us some Miles&More reward miles as an apology for the issues encountered on this flight. Fairs fair, no complaints from either of us. 0:00 Intro 0:31 Checkerboard Hill 1:26 Kai Tak 2:52 Hong Kong International Airport (Chep Lak Kok) 3:32 Check-in and bag drop 4:35 Chase Sapphire Lounge 7:17 Kyra Lounge 8:29 Boarding 9:29 Seat tour 10:34 Pushback and taxi 10:50 Take-off 13:08 Start of service 13:14 Initial thoughts 15:00 Broken IFE (in-flight entertainment) 16:04 Broken tray table 16:15 Dinner service 20:00 Wi-Fi 20:19 Discussion on service 22:27 Sleep 25:25 Breakfast service 29:45 Toilet review 30:22 Captain’s announcement and approach 30:44 Landing 31:34 Final thoughts 32:18 Credits and with thanks 📍 Route: Hong Kong (HKG) to Frankfurt (FRA) ✈️ Aircraft: Airbus A350-900 (D-AIXC) 💺 Cabin: Economy ⌛ Flight Time: 13 hours, 5 minutes 💵 Cost: £497.22 (return cash ticket LCY-ZUR-HKG-FRA-LHR) Facebook:   / jameswarrentravelexpert   Instagram:   / jameswarrentravelexpert   TikTok:   / jwotravelexpert   LinkedIn:   / jameswarrenoliver   🔔 If you enjoy honest, detailed airline reviews and travel insights, please like, comment, and subscribe — your support means the absolute world! 👕 Fancy seeing your name in the credits?
