I have 6 of them and don't plan on returning them. They also change the design from time to time. I have a soccer duck, one bavarian duck and 4 of the standard ones.
Just ask the attendant, who will give you as many as you want.

Also, is it possible to just ask for a duck or do I have to pretend I am taking a bath? I do recall taking a shower but didn't see that bathrooms at the FCL.I also borrowed the ETRO products. I hope they are still using those too, I am almost out!Thanks
What type of ETRO products do they provide ?

I have a standard duck subjected to the following harsh treatment

~ Waterboarded weekly.
~ Held in Solitary confinement with no Duckie friends.

However I'm hoping to relax the second condition and make his (It looks like a he) life more bearable.

Well someone better call the RSPCA immediately! How can you do such things to a standard duck? They are such a cute animal!

I was thinking of Peking duck but it's a wrong airline/airport.

No duck in the MAN Servisair lounge.

Someone is ripping off the LH duckie

I am devastated. Here I thought the LH duckie was a one-of-a-kind LH exclusive. Not so. Mixup in communications with my YUL office and I had to scramble for a room last night. I checked into the fleabag Park Inn near the airport and lo and behold look who was in my room!!





I "borrowed" it so our duckies at home have somebody to play with.

I don't think that these ducks in general are one-of a kind for the FCL. I have seen them at quite a lot of other major hotels especially in Germany and limited places in other parts of the world.
The ducks at the FCL are still "special" as they have the LH FCT printed on them, and other small subtiel differences.
I guess it is for the "trained" eye to see what is real and what is not Just like finding the real LV/SF/Rolex bag among the fake ones

Cheers!

We managed to collect a few ducks on our honeymoon; our best man and matron of honor are from the MUC FCL and my wife and I are from the FRA FCT.

I received a sneak peak into the LH F lounge/terminal 2012 Olympic Duck today:




For more info, including a link to the history of the duck and the gallery of most ducks ever issued, please visit my post here.

I got my Olympic Duck!

Finally crossed off another item on my travel bucket list! Was in Lufthansa's First Class Terminal 2 days ago and got two Limited Edition First Class Olympic Ducks!

Would love to post a picture, but have failed multiple attempts.

They are really cute!
