Introduction:
After 2 weeks trip in Germany and Austria, it was the time to come back to Israel.
I started my trip in Frankfurt and finished in Hamburg, so I took flight from HAM to FRA with Lufthansa, LH031 and then this flight, from FRA to TLV.
I had only one hour between two flights, so there's no photos from the terminal or something else. Really sorry for that, but I hope that in September I'll visit in Frankfurt again, and I will take a lot of photos :)
Here's some photos from Germany and Austria:

In service since July 2011
I travelled with good friend who checked in for 19E seat, after the boarding completed, we found that 19D seat is free, so We felt like passengers in European business class.

Thanks for reading!
Thanks for this FR.
The timing of the flight is a bit odd, but i guess it helps with connection from FRA.
The very basic salad and small dessert does make a bad overall impression of the meal.
Not only because it helped with the connection flight, I chose this flight because I could travel in Hamburg in the last day until 5PM, and I always prefer to choose night flight in my return flights, because I can travel in the last day, almost like normal day.
The salad is small, but the meat and the cake were very nice, and the salad was good. LY meals also including small salads in the Y class.
The whole flight looks like LH has a great short to mid haul product. My one observation would be that LH should look into having a meal that doesn't mix milk / meat. or even better, is fully kosher on their Israel flights. I flew swiss ZRH-TLV-ZRH a few years ago, and these considerations were made.
You can request kosher meal in LH website, there's no problem.
