Today: Review – Lufthansa A320neo Business Class from Frankfurt to Mykonos
Last month, I enjoyed a wonderful trip in Greece. Getting there was a bit challenging since prices for plane tickets from Belgium to Greece's Cycladic islands are skyrocketing this COVID19 summer (a combination of increased demand and limited availability of plane seats). Most Economy Class flights from Belgium (my home country) to Mykonos or Santorini were priced above 400 euros (one way), which is insane. The same was true for flights departing from Amsterdam, Paris, Düsseldorf and Frankfurt. Remarkably, flights in Business Class with Lufthansa were remarkably cheaper than Economy Class on some dates, hence why I decided to book a Business Class flight departing from Frankfurt.
The flight was operated by an Airbus A320neo, the newest member of the A320 aircraft family. The addition of "neo" stands for "New Engine Option". What makes the A320neo stand out are the new engines and improved aerodynamics. The aircraft is 15 percent more fuel efficient than today's comparable models. It also shows impressive figures in terms of noise reduction: the 85 decibel maximum noise-level contour of a starting A320neo is around 50 per cent lower than that of the current A320. From a passenger's perspective, there's not much difference though between flying in an A320 versus A320neo (except for the lower noise levels).
