LH First Class

[Princess Fiona]

Great thread Princess Fiona.
Would love to do LH from FRA, but haven't yet found the availability.
Maybe on next year's trip back from Europe.

Thank you
I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!!

It looks like a fabulous couple of flights. How did you check for award availability?

Can't answer for PF, but in general UA is pretty good. Whether other programs will have that space available is another issue... LM for example blocks plenty of otherwise available space. But LM is much much cheaper than UA.

I have a belt and braces approach to nabbing lucrative Awards.
Expert Flyer alerts and Award Nexus. Plus I habitually check both manually several times a day. This is one of the few times where my OCD really comes in handy

There I was thinking I had some issues........

Wasn't there a situation relating to AB defunctness and well timed 14 day LH availability?

Yes for the outbound. For the return I had LH J booked but chickened out once I realized I’d be playing footsie with a stranger

After checking out the lounge I went for a shower. The shower suites in MUC are large and well equipped, similar size to FRA but with different amenities.
And of course the ducks

I hope you managed to get yourself a few of the ducks

Oh I have Herr and Frau Duck plus the two black ones from FRA safely tucked up at home

LH F is an experience and a half indeed! And that Porsche is very enjoyable...once you get used to driving over 200 km/h . I maxed out at about 235-240 km/h...as apparently the tyres were not rated for higher . I actually found taking a corner very quickly to be more enjoyable, and the pucker factor goes up when the car slides ever so slightly! I've had the good fortune to fly LH F on four separate flights with two trips to the FRA FCT, and one to the MUC FCL. The three ducks sit on my bathroom vanity at the moment, I need to get another! Glad to see you very much enjoyed it Princess Fiona.

After my shower I headed into the restaurant for a quick bite to eat. This is similar to the FCT at FRA but I believe the catering is done by a different company. The food was excellent.

CE was on with 2004 vintage Krug on SQ so he isn’t switching. Our family has zillions of Kris Miles so we just stay with what we know.

Im not a big fan of huge plate, small food but seriously, is that not the most amazing soup serving bowl ever?
