I won't say too much on here since I will be churning out my standard-issue trip report on the flights (that is to say, expect ~10,000 words and 100 photos per flight ) but just a few points:
LX F
1. Service extremely polished, refined and really very warm and genuine all around. The Maitre de Cabine was even more wonderful than the one male and one female FA serving the F cabin, who were already amazing.
2. I loved the ZRH FCL. Not the most elaborate in terms of food offerings or facilities, but to me it was decorated in exactly my ideal tastes and the pre-flight dining was a real delight. The Merc Van transfer to E-terminal was pleasant.
3. Food onboard - wow! LX clearly take food very seriously - perhaps almost as much as NH and the meal onboard was just wonderful. And the Cuvee Louise was still very much drinkable after 6-7 glasses
4. Seat - you'd never think it was a 10+ year old design! Better than SQ 77W F in more ways than one, not the least the option of the face-to-face dining with that ridiculously big (biggest I've ever seen) table.
It was just a mind-blowing flight really. I would suggest anyone who hasn't tried it before to plan it as soon as possible
OZ C
The service on the Upper Deck was simply wonderful. All the attentiveness of SQ, minus some of the "polish" but a lot more of the "human touch" - it really felt like you're interacting with a person rather than a training manual.
The seat, catering, IFE etc were all pretty standard, but the service really made the flight a real joy. Without a doubt my most enjoyable Business Class service to date.
And jhm: I did not get round to calling them "older sister" - I didn't really start chatting to them until towards the end of the flight, by which it would have sounded a bit... strange to suddenly launch into doing that!
