24T01 The first day
Fly fly away
The first day of travel helps set the tone for the entire enchilada. I got lounge access at YVR airport, and a Premium Economy seat on the non-stop transatlantic hop with Condor to FRA. The company debut its fleet of A339neo planes last year, and while its Economy service was fine, I’m optimistic the seating class with increased seat pitch will provide enough comfort for actual sleep.
How about some planespotting from the Plaza Premium Lounge?

The Condor paint schemes just crack me up. Sometimes I see them taking off from SeaTac and flying right over my house and they always catch my eye! Right on for your lounge access – the Delta lounge at SeaTac is one of my favorite spots. We easily eat a day’s worth of food in there:)

Hi, Valerie. The Condor livery definitely sticks out, but maybe it looks a little bit like jail-bars. I envy how Condor has SEA-FRA non-stops for the full year, but it’s “only” summer-seasonal non-stops from YVR. After a passenger gets a taste of lounge access or premium seating-class, it can be difficult to go back. But it’s true getting decent food in a lounge can be a very nice perk before hopping onto a transatlantic red-eye. Thanks for your comment!
