check out Condor!

Just flew back on Condor from FRA to BWI on one of their wide body Airbuses, and was blown away by the seat space-better than economy-plus on Lufthansa. Config is 2-4-2, was in 4H on the aisle and could easily cross my legs when I wanted, and I'm 6 foot tall. They supplied a "meal" and a "snack" which was equivelant to what you used to get in coach in the U.S., however, you pay for wine and snacks; wine was cheaper than what you pay on a U.S. carrier. Condor is owned by Lufthansa, which supplies the connections to FRA (we 6 flew CDG -FRA on LUF) and no issues or problems. Check them out.

We have flown the, several times now and would again. 4H sounds like Economy-Plus. We did try true economy once and it was so ridiculous that we upgraded in flight to Economy-Plus for the international flight. Their Business Class, which we splurged on this spring, is very nice.

Condor is owned by Lufthansa

Condor was the charter airline of Lufthansa until 1997. Presently it's owned by Thomas Cook (which desperately wants to get rid of it).

Seatguru shows seating for 2 versions of the 330 Airbus used by Condor. Yes, 2-4-2 seating in economy. That was the standard seat configuration for the A330, but some airlines have begun to squeeze that to 3-3-3.

I've flown the Condor 767 and it was really, really tight for legroom.

Note that video entertainment is extra-- well you get one adult movie, one kid movie and some TV episodes for free. Seat selection also extra.
