Business class comfort in Swissair, Lufthansa and AirFrance
We are planning to travel to Budapest and return from Prague starting from either Miami or Charlotte. Have started hearing about uncomfortable seating in business class on Swissair, possibly Lufthansa in recent international flights.
Can anyone please let me know of recent experience on any of the above--main routes considered are Charlotte-Munich (Lufthansa), Miami-Zurich (swis) and Miami-Paris (AF).
Many many thanks--we have to do our final booking by midnight tomorrow.
Take care,
Robyn France

I have flown Lufthansa Business Class several times on the routes München-Los Angeles and Frankfurt-Atlanta.
Business Class on transatlantic Lufthansa flights is top-notch: State-of-the-art seats (electrically converting into flat beds), good food, wines, service.

I have flown Swiss business class several times(FF miles). It was extra nice. The flight attendants were some of the best. Even the food was edible, and I am very picky. I've only flown the route from ORD-ZRH. Since Swiss is no longer affiliated with AA, I probably won't be doing that again.

I, too, very much enjoyed my recent business class flight on Swiss from LAX - ZUR. Excellent service, food, wine and comfort. The seats were VERY comfortable, however, a bit difficult for sleeping. They do not recline to completely flat beds, as do the seats in Swiss's first class. I couldn't seem to "iron out" a hump in the seat which hit me in the middle. Maybe had something to do with my size...or lack thereof! In any event, I enjoyed this flight much more than the return flight on US Air's business class, in every respect.

No, the seats in business class do not make into a bed as in first, but I did okay getting a little sleep. My seat reclined nicely and the foot rest helped a lot. It is definitely much better than coach. The only other airline tht I can compare to is AA, and I like Swiss MUCH better.
