Lufthansa is one of the leading airlines in the world. While they are now finally upgrading their long-haul fleet with the new Allegris product, they’ve already introduced a new service concept called “Tasting Heimat” in their short-haul Business Class, which should bring the German cuisine inspired by 6 different German cities to the sky. However, on this flight from Munich to Barcelona the realization of that cool concept was so bad. But have a look at it yourself and tell us what you think about it.

Thanks for watching! What do you think about Lufthansa's Business Class and their catering concept "Tasting Heimat"?
Pretty cool review. Loved the music selection. And you‘re absolutely right. It‘s such a great concept but why they do it that wrong then! Cheers!
Great Trip Report. Uncovering the truth about this airline.
I agree that no wifi and no USB sockets for a 2019 aircraft is uncompetitive.
Great review! At least Lufthansa still offers a short haul business class. Many European carriers don't. But I agree that a hot meal should have been served if passengers are paying a significant percentage more than they would for economy. The concept of the catering service is a good idea but the fact that its all just fakery isnt really acceptable. Also, I thought the apple thing was a bit bizarre.
Wow
Ahhh….Lufthansa. Nik favorite Airlines 😁
Well I guess why the price for upgrade is cheaper than the actual business class. I don't think the big thinkers up there would intentionally market it that way if it were really good. I'm sure they would have known of the price "difference"
Hi, it would be really great a trip report to/from Seville. Anyway, awesome video!
Maybe just me, but with the exception of Hamburg and their crabs, german cousine usually does not scream premium. nothing wrong with it, it just clashes with the branding
Beautiful vlog beautiful journey airplane ✈️👍💯🌹
I remember flying Lufthansa on their Airbus A380 from Frankfurt (FRA) to New Delhi (DEL) in 2014. Even in economy their service was really good and the crew members were really kind and helpful. It's sad to see what's happening to Lufthansa now…
Nik, you cracked me up with your commentary about the menu marketing! LH are clearly going for the base Mercedes C-class lease market!!!
When it comes to buying upgrades online, correct if I’m wrong but I believe besides the bagagem allowance, your mileage accrual also remains as the original fare class, correct?!
Thanks for showing us how average LH really is 😓
LOL „Tasting Heimat“ ist wohl eher „tasting cheapness“ dem Austeilen von Äpfeln nach zu urteilen 😂 Also für die Business Class gibt es da SAFE bessere Airlines für ein angemessenes Preisleistungsverhältnis. Aber trotzdem sehr gute Arbeit von euch 👏🏻🎉
We’ve just flown into Alicante from Oslo on SAS plus, and no magazine, wifi was not working, food (breakfast) is mediocre as well, though at least they provided free chips, cashew etc in addition to the drinks. SAS no middle seat empty, packed biz class with no space, no curtain between biz and eco, pretty much of a scam like LH. But we’ve arrived safely so to speak.
That has nothing to do with business class. Some Asian economy products are much better than that.
You tell 'em, fella! 😄😄😄 I loved the music too.
Sadly I just hate Lufthansa.
Nice video! But I can assure you that Lufthansa’s meal — heimat or nicht heimat — is far superior to anything offered by any airline here in the States. On a two hour flight in business class, you will receive a cookie with coffee.
