Lufthansa 787 Business Class – Booking

Réserver un aller-simple entre Nice (NCE) et Montréal (YUL) via Munich (MUC) coûte 40 000 points Aéroplan en classe économique et 70 000 points Aéroplan en classe affaires (tarification entre la Zone Atlantique et la Zone Amérique du Nord) :

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Screenshot

Lufthansa libère régulièrement de la disponibilité sur cet itinéraire pour les partenaires Star Alliance, dont Aéroplan.

Consultez notre tutoriel en fin d’article pour obtenir des points Aéroplan, que vous nous lisiez du Canada, des États-Unis ou ailleurs dans le monde.

Lufthansa 787 Business Class – Cabin

Cet appareil est constitué de trois cabines :

  • Affaires
  • Premium economie
  • Économie

Pour ce vol LH478 entre Munich et Montréal, je voyagerai en classe affaires.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-04
Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-05

La Classe affaires de Lufthansa dans son B787-9 est composée d’une seule cabine pour un total de 26 sièges, configurés en 1-2-1.

Cette cabine s’étend sur 6 rangées de 4 sièges ainsi que 2 sièges additionnels dans la rangée 1. Consultez Aerolopa pour le plan détaillé.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-06

Avec ce type de configuration, tous les passagers ont un accès direct au couloir.

Ce B787-9 devait initialement être livré à Hainan Airlines ce qui explique que la cabine soit différente (et meilleure) par rapport à ce quel’on retrouve actuellement à bord de la plupart des appareils Lufthansa dont l’actuelle version de l’A350 de Lufthansa :

Review: Lufthansa A350 - Business Class - Lufthansa A350 LH475 business class 05

À noter que Lufthansa va progressivement déployer une nouvelle classe affaires nommée Allegris à compter de 2024.

En attendant, si vous souhaitez avoir accès au couloir, il faut donc viser le B787-9 ou les A350 qui ont eux-aussi hérité des cabines d’autres compagnies aériennes (Philippines Airlines) que j’avais testée ici :

Review: Lufthansa A350 - Business Class (Ex-Philippines Airlines) - Lufthansa A350 23

Pour ce vol dans ce B787-9 de Lufthansa, j’ai choisi le siège 6K côté hublot.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-07

Si vous voyagez tout seul, je vous recommande les sièges aux hublots, en évitant les sièges 5A et 5K qui ne disposent que d’1 hublot au lieu de 2 pour les autres sièges :

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-09

Si vous voyagez à deux, il sera préférable de choisir les sièges centraux : vous pourrez facilement communiquer avec votre compagnon de voyage.

Passons à présent au siège de ce B787-9 Lufthansa en tant que tel.

Le siège Collins Aerospace Super Diamond est équipé d’un appui-tête ajustable, d’une ceinture de sécurité au niveau de l’épaule et peut se transformer en un lit complètement plat d’environ 2 mètres, garantissant un confort optimal pendant le vol.

Ce siège offre de nombreuses options de rangements. Deux compartiments situés le long du siège peuvent accueillir la plupart des petits objets comme des cables informatiques, des écouteurs et des lunettes.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-15

Enfin, vous pouvez placer des documents ou une tablette dans la poche de rangement exposée sur le côté du siège.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-17

Des trousses de bienvenue sont disponibles à chaque siège de classe affaires. Les accessoires fournis sont basiques (chaussettes, bouchons d’oreille, brosse à dents). Si vous cherchez un masque pour dormir, il vous faudra vous rendre aux toilettes pour le trouver!

L’écran est d’une taille confortable de 18 pouces dont vous pouvez apprécier la dimension avec le test du sous-verre Milesopedia.

La tablette pliante en faux bois, qui se déplie sous l’écran de divertissement, mesure 17 pouces de large et 19 pouces de long. Comme vous pouvez le voir, cette tablette est parfaite pour les plus grands ordinateurs portables comme ici avec mon Macbook Pro 16 pouces.

Lufthansa 787 Business Class – Service

Pendant la phase d’embarquement, des boissons fraiches sont offertes, dont du champagne.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-21

Peu de temps après le décollage, le service est effectué. Comme d’habitude avec Lufthansa, des cacahuètes chaudes sont servies, accompagnées d’un bon verre de vin rouge.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-29

Voici le menu proposé sur ce vol à destination de Montréal :

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-27
Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-28

En entrée, j’ai choisi le Flétan fumé et salade de pommes de terre et concombre du potager.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-30

Pour le plat principal, j’ai choisi la Morue poêlée servie avec ragoût de citrouille rôtie et risotto d’orge perlé avec asperges.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-31

En fromage, j’ai pu goûter au fromage de Chaumes, gouda mi-fort, chèvre et bleu Montagnolo.

Et en dessert, ce fut la Mousse au mascarpone et à la vanille avec framboise et agrumes.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-32

L’ensemble du repas était bon avec un service plutôt rapide.

J’ai pu travailler le restant du vol grâce au réseau Wi-Fi (et à mon accès Boingo offert avec ma carte World Elite Mastercard).

Un petit tour du côté des toilettes qui disposent d’un hublot. Vous y retrouverez également des produits pour vous rafraîchir (et c’est ici que vous pourrez prendre un masque pour dormir qui ne se trouve bizarrement pas dans la trousse de bienvenue).

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-33

1 heure avant l’atterrissage, un autre service est effectué. Pour celui-ci, j’ai choisi le Tataki de filet de saumons avec racines-légumes, bergamote et maïs.

Suivi d’une mousse au chocolat à la cerise.

Review: Lufthansa B787-9 Business Class | Munich - Montreal - Lufthansa-787-9-Business-34

Bottom Line

Au final, j’ai passé un excellent vol d’un peu plus de 7 heures à bord de ce B787-9 de Lufthansa.

C’est une excellente option si vous pouvez disposer de ce type d’appareil pour votre vol transatlantique dont la cabine est plutôt récente.

Au niveau du service, celui-ci est de type « germanique » (plutôt froid et sec) mais fut rapide! Ce service est similaire à celui que vous pouvez retrouver à bord de Swiss ou Austrian, faisant partie du même groupe Lufthansa.

Tant le service (soft product) que la cabine (hard product) équivalent ce que vous pouvez trouver du côté d’Air Canada.

Toutefois, Lufthansa reste une très bonne option pour utiliser vos points Aéroplan sur les vols transatlantiques. Puisqu’il s’agit d’un partenaire d’Aéroplan, vous pourrez profiter de la tarification fixe (70 000 points en classe affaires), alors que la tarification pour les vols Air Canada peuvent s’envoler au-delà de 100 000 points.

So you can apply with confidence.*Instant decisions are only available for consumer Card applications (also called “personal Cards”).

The American Express Cobalt® Card is the best credit card from American Express, whether you want points for travel or cash back.

American Express Cobalt® Card welcome offer

The welcome bonus is paid out monthly over your first 12 months. You earn 1,250 Membership Rewards points for each monthly billing period in which you charge $750 in net purchases to your card, in any category (1X, 2X, 3X or 5X). That adds up to 15,000 Membership Rewards points over the year, a welcome offer we value at $255.

Earning the full bonus means $9,000 in net purchases spread across 12 monthly billing periods. This offer rewards steady monthly spending rather than one large purchase.

You can use these points as statement credits on everyday or travel purchases, at the same rate either way: 1,000 points = $10.

You can also transfer them to Aeroplan, Avios (British Airways and Qatar Airways), Flying Blue, Marriott Bonvoy or Hilton Honors. With the full welcome bonus, that is a choice between:

  • 15,000 Aeroplan points
  • 15,000 Avios points
  • 15,000 Flying Blue Miles
  • 18,000 Marriott Bonvoy points

If hotel points are what you are after, our ultimate guide to Marriott Bonvoy and our complete map of Marriott Bonvoy hotels by category show what those points can actually buy.

American Express Cobalt® Card benefits

Here is what the card gives you, starting with the benefits cardholders use most.

  • 5X points on eligible eats and drinks in Canada: groceries, restaurants and bars, home food delivery and convenience stores. A spend cap applies.
  • 3X points on eligible streaming subscriptions in Canada.
  • 2X points on eligible gas, public transit and ride sharing purchases in Canada.
  • 1 additional point on eligible hotel and car rental bookings made through American Express Travel Online.
  • 1X point per dollar on everything else, with no category restrictions.
  • Points that hold the same value either way: 1,000 points = $10 as a statement credit, or a 1:1 transfer to several airline and hotel loyalty programs.
  • No minimum income requirement, as with every American Express Canada card.
  • Additional cards at no extra cost: the first and every other supplementary card is $0.
  • The Hotel Collection: a room upgrade when available, 12pm check-in and late check-out when available, and up to $100 USD in hotel credit on amenities charged to the room for a stay of two or more consecutive nights, booked through American Express Travel.
  • Front Of The Line® presale and reserved tickets for concerts and theatre performances, plus offers and events curated for cardmembers through Amex Experiences.
  • A soft credit check before you apply: you can see whether you will be approved with no impact to your credit score. This applies to American Express personal card applications.

To see how it compares with the rest of the line-up, read our round-up of the best credit cards from American Express in Canada.

The 5X categories and where they apply

The 5X rate is the reason most people carry this card. In Canada it covers four kinds of merchants:

  • Groceries: Metro, IGA, Sobeys, Super C, Safeway, Whole Foods.
  • Restaurants and bars: sit-down meals, takeout and drinks.
  • Home food delivery.
  • Convenience stores: Couche-Tard, 7-Eleven.

The 2X rate covers gas stations such as Esso, Shell and Petro-Canada, along with public transit and ride sharing.

With the American Express Cobalt® Card, you earn between 1 and 5 points per dollar:

Category Points per dollar
Grocery (Metro, IGA, Sobeys, Super C, etc.) 5
Home food delivery 5
Restaurants and bars 5
Convenience stores 5
Streaming services 3
Service station 2
Transport 2
Travel 1
Other 1

That works out to a 1 to 5% return on those purchases. For example, if you spend $1,000 per month across groceries, restaurants and food delivery, you earn $50 back per month, or $600 per year from that category alone. Transfer the points to a program such as Aeroplan instead and the return can be higher.

You can also stack these categories with the hundreds of stores that offer 5x points.

American Express Cobalt® Card insurance coverage

The card comes with a broad insurance package. The amounts below are the coverage limits; conditions, age limits and exclusions are set out in the certificate of insurance linked in the Insurance section above.

Travel insurance

  • Emergency medical: up to $5,000,000 for the first 15 days of a trip.
  • Travel accident: accidental death and dismemberment of up to $250,000 for you, your spouse and dependent children under age 23 when travelling on a common carrier (plane, train, bus or ship) and the tickets are charged to your card. Supplementary cardholders and their families are covered too.
  • Flight delay: up to $500 for necessary hotel, meal and sundry expenses bought within 48 hours when you are delayed or denied boarding for four hours or more and no other transportation is available. This $500 is an aggregate limit per occurrence, shared with missed connection and delayed baggage coverage.
  • Delayed baggage: up to $500 for essential clothing and sundries bought within four days when your outbound luggage is delayed six hours or more. This $500 is an aggregate limit per occurrence, shared with missed connection and flight delay coverage.
  • Lost or stolen baggage: up to $500 per occurrence for all insured persons combined, for checked or carry-on baggage and personal effects in transit, when the airline tickets are charged to your card. Within that limit, jewellery is capped at $300 per occurrence and golf clubs, including golf bags, at $250 per occurrence.
  • Hotel and motel burglary: up to $500 against the loss of most personal items if your hotel or motel is burglarized, when the stay is charged to your card.

Rental car insurance

Theft and damage coverage is included for a rental car with an MSRP, for its model year, of up to $85,000 excluding all taxes, for rentals of up to 48 days. To use it, decline the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) or any similar option from the rental company and charge the full rental to your card. There is no cost for this coverage, and it replaces the daily insurance the rental company charges, usually $16 to $23 per day.

Mobile device insurance

Your device is covered for up to $1,000 per occurrence when it is charged to the card, for up to two years from the date of purchase. The payout is based on the depreciated value of the device, which falls by 2% of the purchase price for every completed month, less a 10% deductible. Theft and accidental damage coverage starts on the 91st day after purchase, because the first 90 days are covered by purchase protection.

Purchase protection and extended warranty

Eligible items charged to your card are insured against accidental physical damage or theft for 90 days from the purchase date, up to $1,000 per occurrence for all items combined. The card also extends the original manufacturer’s warranty by up to one additional year on eligible items, with indemnification limited to $10,000 per insured item and $25,000 per Cardmember per policy year for all items combined.

American Express Cobalt® Card fees

  • Card fee: $15.99 per month, which equals $191.88 per year, for residents outside Quebec. Quebec residents are billed $191.88 per year.
  • Additional cards: $0.
  • Purchase interest rate: 21.99%.
  • Cash advance interest rate: 21.99%.
  • Foreign transaction fee: 2.5%.
  • Minimum income required: none.

Because the fee is billed monthly rather than in one annual charge, you can stop and restart the cost in step with how much you are actually using the card.
