we were able to make it to the connecting flight in Frankfurt to Copenhagen thanks to Lufthansa crew. The ground crew was waiting at the gate and received us and took us through special runway entrance and immigration check. We were on the plane at 10-09 am for 10-10 departure. Thanks to Andre and the other lady for mission impossible :)

Premium Economy was very comfortable. Flight staff was cheerful and helpful.

Flight was late and has 12 hours transit time instead of 1.3 hours.

Comment for Lufthansa is just perfect, similar to my first flight comment.

Good legroom. Attentive crew. Wine quality poor, you can do better

Hectic boarding process. I upgraded to business class which was no different than economy except for the food service. Totally not worth it.

Business class was roomy and comfortable however, the entertainment screen was very dark and hard to see.

Great experience. Flight was on time and reached destination on time

I meant this flight was not good, the one from Tirana to Frankfurt was better!

Business Class Configuration was excellent- private and comfortable. Crew and service were excellent. I really appreciate Air Canada cabin pressurization equal to an altitude of 8,000ft. Upon landing, I felt more alert and refreshed than typical for international flights
