Frankfurt to Vancouver in two minutes!

Here is a short composition of various clips taken during a flight between Frankfurt and Vancouver in June 2006. This was our first experience travelling on an Airbus 340-600, the world's longest airliner. The airline, Lufthansa, provided excellent service as usual. The only problem with boarding such a long aircraft is the long wait at the boarding room, as you can see near the beginning of the clip.

Frankfurt International Airport (FRA), one of the biggest hubs in Europe, is my favorite airport to stop over. It is efficient, easy to navigate and plenty of spotting to do with runways working non-stop during the day. My only complaint is the lack of air conditioning and the absence of no smoking policy inside the airport facility.

During the flight, we were able to capture some fantastic shots of glaciers in Greenland, as well as the Coastal Mountain Range in British Columbia when we approached Vancouver.

@fruitsandclops This was in 2006, when no Lufthansa carriers had PTV. Now all Lufthansa widebodies have it.

@fishingwithrod, They don't all have it; The Frankfurt Bangalore run is serviced by Lufthansa 747s that don't have PTVs in economy class
