Looking at Seat Guru, both planes seem to have very similar seating, so I'm curious for any feedback from people who've taken the YYC->FRA direct flight with both/either airlines...Anything to distinguish them: Quality of food; entertainment system; ease of communication (my German is nicht so gut); hottest FAs; anything else.
Thanks.

I regularily take both these flights....when leaving YYC I take LH as it arrives earlier in FRA so I can make my connection, coming home I take the AC flight. I prefer the AC over LH for a number of reasons....In economy, the LH seat bottoms are not as 'long' and are slightly more cramped. Better selection of booze on the AC flight, recognizable liquor like Crown :-)
Both have seatback TV screens, same movies...so its a wash there. As mentioned before, discounted LH fares (like of expedia) only pay 50% aeroplan miles, so be careful there.
If taking business class, hands down AC.....one of the most comfortable business classes currently in the industry, great great value.
So bottom line, if you need to arrive in FRA early, take the LH flight on the A340, if this is not a concern, take the AC flight on the 767.....
