Creator's Key Takeaways

So, what did I think of Discover Air Economy? Well, it was economy. It was just fine. There was nothing wrong with it, or a few things right with it.

I've been lucky enough to fly business class a couple of times. I get it. I understand the difference, but if the destination is the goal, then this is just a fine way to get to the destination.

And let me tell you, this breakfast was definitely something I ate on an airplane once. I think once will be enough.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get yourself a travel fan for flights where cabin temperature might be too high.

YouTube Video Description

Discover Airlines is owned by Lufthansa and provides international service from Philadelphia to Frankfurt. I took a flight with them in the summer of 2026 in economy. This video shows the experience from arriving to the airport to landing. Spoiler alert - it was an economy international flight, and honestly, I don't really see a lot of variation in what you get on flights across the Atlantic in economy.
