Also from Muc, and this all starting 28 oct.

They say that the aircraft will have no entertainment system, which on itself I barely use, but others become edgy without.

Very stupid move, as there are loads of hons and senators in Israel they will be upsetting...

Once you are sitting in coach seats, there are plenty of alternatives.

+1, pretty captured market being that most people dont like transiting LHR.

For people wanting a decent biz to Europe there isn't much left.

I know they are the same company. I just thought there still is some kind of gain difference to the airline, with a rev ticket on LH or LX.

What is LY to Europe like?

chuchem · « **Reply #11 on:** July 19, 2012, 06:04:27 AM »

LY doesnt have a good business, its like US carriers domestic, but still better then a320, so LY might gain alot from this.

Now there is no reason for LX not to change as well to a A320, that might come next

For people, that want to transit to main land europe LHR is out of the way, so I would say very soon there might not be any real Business to mainland europe, besides for LY

Via AMM ?

PlatinumGuy · « **Reply #13 on:** July 19, 2012, 06:12:59 AM »

LH had an a320 out of AMM already.
