The decision was already made, but I'm curious what you guys would have done.

LX A330 J connecting to LH F, but no time in the FCT, or LH J with time in the FCT?

IMO if the route has you in F for a good amount of time.

TLV-FRA, fake J.

That's what I told my friend to do. He's also a big guy, so the real J makes a major difference..

So choices are TLV-ZRH-FRA-??? vs. TLV-FRA-???
1) No FCT and extra stop
2) 1 less stop and FCT

I would take option 2.

It's another J product to try, and he's not in a rush to get anywhere. It's not like he can eat in the FCT anyway.

When you are 350lb if it's even a little more comfortable it's worth it.

he can order kosher food in the FCT. I have flown on the LX J A330 4 times probably by now (not impressed, I dont like their product). I would just go LH & finished.. but had I been starting out I wouldve done what he has booked now

I am trying to highlight what makes FCT a worthwhile place to hang out in and not what he will get when flying LH Y.

No need for food when there's a bar with 150 different liquors to choose from :)
