The cups in the lavatory is for rinsing your mouth after you brush your teeth. This way, you don't have to use your hands or lower your head to the faucet when you need water to rinse your mouth.
Passengers love it, crews mostly hate it! This plane is a pain in the a** to work on! Whoever came up with the idea to place the access to the lower deck facilities in the middle of the galley/service center should be forced to work in this galley five times each month for the rest of their life! Even if you love working with people and usually deliver a great customer service, this aircraft makes you hate people! And the passengers aren't to blame!!!
I love this aircraft, especially the economy bathrooms but not because where they’re placed, but because 1: there is room to stretch out without hitting another passenger, and 2: the seats in front of the stairs can be reclined as much as you want without a passenger behind you complaining. This is how you can score a great seat in economy.
As another commentator has mentioned, the cups in the bathrooms are for rinsing with water after brushing your teeth. You should probably bring along your own travel-size mouthwash to use instead. And of course, the water in the lavatories is not for drinking.
I flew on this aircraft model when I traveled to Italy. First leg was NYC to Frankfurt. It was unexpectedly jarring to turn on the flight map and see nothing but empty ocean, knowing that miles below was nothing deep, dark water surrounding us on all sides. Completely alone in the air and the water.
As far as I know economy flex has its advantages for fare change and cancellation issues, but the seat type would be the same as any other economy seat unless you are flying in emergency exit row, which I always prefer instead of upgrading to premium economy.
Lufthansa's A346 is great! Especially in Premium Economy - this was the first time in my life I fell asleep during a flight. I can't sleep sitting, but the prem seats have very generous recline and are very comfy! Also the A346 flies super smooth. Toilets in lower deck are also great, lots of them so no queues and no waiting in the aisle and bothering other passengers.
10 oxygen masks deploy from the ceiling in the hall area down there in the event of an emergency and there is also a strict policy of a maximum of 10 people down there and no waiting on the stairs. I learned all of this in their safety video where they had to add a special section about it because of how unique the aircraft is.

Great Review! Loved the lower deck lavatories
Best place ever! :D
+isaacflyaway ahhhahaha exactly
i just came for the downstair toilets
Thanks for your great review. I will be flying on the a340-600 in a few days! :)
I flew on this from Frankfurt. I love going downstairs toilets. 😁
Lovely flight report! I hope you enjoyed flying with the A340 as long as it is in the fleet of Lufthansa. Thumbs up and best regards ;)
+Laid-Back Flights thank you so much!
Beautiful plane! I am looking forward to flying on one of these from the US to Germany also, hopefully some time in 2020. Very sexy, Airbus A340 :)
11 hour flight from Seoul/S.Korea to Munich with A340 600, best flight experience ever!!!
Yeah.. as cabin crew I can admit. Great aircraft for passenger comfort and safety. However, a pain in the ass for cabin crew to work on.
❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I'm flying Lufthansa on Saturday from Philadelphia to Frankfurt!
+Justin Maxwell :) thanks have a nice flight
Justin Maxwell where was the pilot?
27nili27 27 in the cockpit

The toilets in the a340 are actually good because unlike Ryanair’s favourite aircraft, it has way more than 2 toilets
that's too much space bewteen the seats for an economy class, i'm impressed
Very fast flight time eastbound in Jan. Nice video.
+strafrag1 thanks :)
What about people with mobility issue. How will they use the restroom.
Toilets downstairs ? I hope they do this for A350-1000s and B777-9s
So the 747 and A380 aren't the only double-deckers after all.
Very cool review!
I think the cups are for rinsing your mouth when brushing teeth or something... since it is not recommended to drink the water.
Do you know if the seat with extra leg room has the same space in economy flex or should i upgrade to economy premium?
As far as I know economy flex has its advantages for fare change and cancellation issues, but the seat type would be the same as any other economy seat unless you are flying in emergency exit row, which I always prefer instead of upgrading to premium economy.
Nicee review!!!
Btw, love the music!!!
Could someone tell me the name of the second one?

Great video. Love the A340!!
+Aaron Casteel Thanks!

Welcome to the mile high club. I should book a flight on this plane
That legroom is crazy
Great video! What are the names of the songs you featured?
+M CA Names&Links are in the description box.
I was on a flight and drunken passenger fell down the stairs and got knocked out. Bad gash on his forehead. Flight attendants were freaking out.
best airplane that was ever invented
Should Have That One More Planes ✈️ Because It Would Be very Useful for airlines that want to maximize space usage!
Why is there a power outlet in a bathroom for ?
Razors and toothbrushes.
Its very strange that the extra legroom seat you were sitting in was in row 31, usually on the Lh 340-600 its 28... maybe a dif configuration
+Robert Ciuraru There are different configurations for these planes. You can see each of them on SeatGuru.
How does the downstairs toilet work out when there is a queue? (and there is almost always a queue!)
10 oxygen masks deploy from the ceiling in the hall area down there in the event of an emergency and there is also a strict policy of a maximum of 10 people down there and no waiting on the stairs. I learned all of this in their safety video where they had to add a special section about it because of how unique the aircraft is.
Are those the munckins from The Wizard of Oz signing in the music?
the a340 is my favourite plane model
Hey, how tall are you?
Whats the Song in the beginning?
There is a huge difference between economy and premium economy. Please title your video appropriately next time
Gold Job !
+Tuto Help Thankssss!
Looks like Train has Wings!! haha
do you remember the Captains Name?
+max chilla no sorry I'm pretty sure that he was german 😂
Just wondering ......I know some one being A Captain on a LH 340-600
Casey nienstat music?
You can’t change my opinion the a 340-600 is a flying pencil
The Cups you can use for brush your tooth
Best Airbus-A346 built by Airbus before Airbus A380, bravo to Airbus at just 50 what about at the age of Boeing... sky is the limit
I've been to Lufthansa A340-600 to Munich there was toilet downstairs
Yeah, downstairs. How about that, no noise for sure.
+Qiuyuan Chen yeah it is more silent down there
Sorry, but that music is ear cancer.
The lavatories are awesome, until a passenger stumbles down the stairs and falls. Luckily we were on the ground.
go pro quality at night 3/10
The toilet hole is weird and creepy
Cups if you want to brush your teeth
New meaning to poop deck
A380 uç bide in çık bitmiyor
Scheiss Musik.. kotz
American is by far numerous times better then Lufthansa.
Eric Frommer you being sarcastic, right? 😂 I had the worst flight experience with American, best flight experience with LH
LMAO!! American better than Lufthansa?? That's hilarious!!
America First!
Eric Frommer Hahaha!!!
