The new gates that the T2S will bring are not enough for MUC T2, so the apron will still be used for regional flights (eg the 'Air Dolomiti park' in the north of T2S, etc). T2S brings 27 additional gates, so the total will now be 51. LH is stationing all A346 in MUC and will bring the new A359 deliveries to MUC too. So MUC will expand and need those gates for longhaul and mainline feeder flights.

Long story short: if you arrive at a jetbridge, no limo for HON/F, but regional on apron will get the limo as before.

Not sure what kind of inconvenience it is but it sure is a bit disappointing. There will be almost no outside positions anymore as so many gates are added so they practically plan to give up the limousine service. Can anyone confirm?
I have not heard that but would at the same time not expect any limo service to gate positions on the other side. I would expect small planes (CRJ) to remain APRON arrivals so if they don't offer the limo to/from these anymore, that would be disappointing. Taking the train from T2S to T2N vv. however sounds totally acceptable and is actually pretty much the same in FRA where limo is for APRON only (and from FCT which doesn't exist in MUC).

I have heard that apron positions will be minimal as LH is planning to eliminate most RJ from MUC. I have also heard that no limo service to Gate positions (same as today)

Not really. All E195 service offered by EN will stay, the CL 19x fleet will go to OS, but CRJ900 will take their place. Even if most or all of the RJ fleet goes away, 51 gate positions will not be enough to serve all the routes, so you will see A32S parking on the apron and pax being bussed in/out.

The T1 B/C pier will start construction to be expanded after T2S is done, so expect some traffic from there to be (re)located to T2.

Will TK move back to T2 after the opening of the satellite?

If their handling agent Havas can find a spot there. The reason they moved to T1 was their insistence to use a new handling agent.

Interesting, I didn't know that. I was just hoping that everone would get their act together (I hate T1 and the lounge there) and live the *A matra "move under one roof"...

Who else would be potentially moving to T2 (temporarily) as you have alluded?

Guests? These people pay, they're paying passengers and they're nobody's guests. If, instead of a price increase for what they buy they get a slightly "cheaper" product, so be it. 40 seconds in whatchamacallit is not the end of the world. Conclusion: HON and First Class can't buy happiness

Well they market it as the HON-lounge open for Lufthansa First class customers.
The senator lounge is the designated star alliance first class lounge.

It's all in the creative wording like the difference between venerating/worshipping rimowas

T1B will be expanded starting 2019: http://ausschreibungen-deutschland.d..._2015_Freising

4U already moved to T2 last month, I would expect TK to follow in Summer 2016 (if they either get Havas to T2 or ditch them). Then some non-ME3 or OW should follow, my bet is on Condor.

Anyone a guess of the number of First/Hon per day

Even more surprising, in light of the reduction in First Class capacity system wide: there will be a new, second First Class lounge, at the top of the building.

More details at loungereview.com (full disclosure, I have contributed to this blog post):

It would be very interesting to haven an estimate/guess of the daily number of the First/Hon passengers travelling through that terminal per day.

Whereas it is easy to count the A340 daily flights and multiply the 8 seats with seat load factor it is not easy to estimate the number of HONs.

I just assume that 1,000 square meters is a very huge and comfortable area for this high-yield class of passengers. ^

A guess just out of curiosity would be fine.

TK just ditched Havas, who is quitting MUC as of 01MAR2016.
