Iconic Plane, but a MEDIOCRE 13-Hour Economy Experience? Lufthansa 747-8 Trip Report | FRA-HND

I recently had the opportunity to fly on the Queen of the Skies—the Boeing 747-8—for the first time with Lufthansa from Frankfurt to Tokyo. Having just flown Lufthansa in business class on their Boeing 787-9, I was curious to see how their economy class fared in comparison! Watch to find out in this video, as well as learn about the history of the 747-8 program and some cinematic montages! I'm relatively new to trip report content, so there are many things I am continuing to learn for future videos to improve, both in writing, editing, and filming. This video in particular features a brief "history/documentary" segment I wanted to experiement with. Tell me your thoughts in the comments!
