I saw the talks about the A340 and I needed to voice my opinion;

I was on a Luftansa A340 and I am only (5’9” for you Americans) 175.3cm and I still couldnt fit in the seat it was sooooo cramped. But I do have to say it was an awesome plane.

I’m 6ft on the dot and it was quite cramped, but for the experience of flying on the beast I was happy. Lufthansa’s A380 I didn’t find much more roomy though so it might be a Lufthansa thing.

Ive been on the A319 and A321 of Lufthansa 2 weeks ago and those had really good leg room in my opinion

Can agree with that. Did the 319 and 320 to and from MAN and they were comfy. Also flew the 789 from MUC to FRA and that was equally as comfy so maybe it’s just a widebody Airbus thing with Lufty. Eurowings was the best, though I may be biased being in the exit row :laughing: .

Nice, in Poland we still use CM

I remember back in school in the 2010s, we used cm, m and mm but then did everything in miles. Bit confusing to say the least :laughing:.

Where did you go to school?

UK also, though I went in the North so it might be a North South thing.

I took this picture at Sky Deck at Hong Kong Airport

It’s hard to see at night because of the light

The picture I took during the day was taken a year ago

I’m not gonna lie, now that I’ve gotten so far along at HKG, those domestic widebodies are really making a difference in the game’s experience
