Photo Trip Report:The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg:EU-Asia on LH F & 1st time on Lux Air
I had a long two-week break from my five-stop in five-week business travel during the end of May and the month of June.
Those five stops were: Colorless Trip to DC, Sleepless in Taipei, Walking Tour of Dublin, Shanghai with Modern-Ups, and Mainz: Up and Down the Rhine River(no trip report on Mainz yet).
Now that I am back on the road again for the remainder of month of July, let me start my first July Trip Report from beautiful Luxembourg - only remaining sovereign Grand Duchy in the world...and LH F from Asia back to EU.
Stay Tuned!

Almost a Colorless Report
I must first admit that this photo trip was so close to become a Black & White Colorless Photo Trip Report as the Colorlessly Stuck in a Time Trap Trip - Another UA F/C Transpac Trip! I did back in May.
Why? This LH flight was my fourth consecutive month of EU-Asia-EU trip in LH Business Class ( including one just two weeks prior to this particular flight). I tried to upgrade to LH F using United Star Alliance Upgrade Award two days prior to the flight departure date, but was told F cabin was full. I tried again less than 24 hours before the flight and it cleared! Because of the F upgrade, the trip was not so routine anymore, and also I didn't want to allow my mental tireness of flying another LH flight to overshadow what I might see in Luxembourg. This trip report is about Luxembourg not about Lufthansa flights.
So instead of seeing the B&W photos (below) of the airport and on board of LH flights, color photos will be posted starting in the next post.

Shower @ FRA Senator's Lounge
To order to use this below average airport lounge shower facility, I had to leave Germany (due to the layout of the FRA B gate area) and reenter Germany to catch my connecting flight leaving at gate B11.
Definitely not the airport shower facilities I am used to at UA, SQ, NH, CX, etc.

There was a lot of food. There were several choices for the mid-night snacks. I thought about ordering one each to take photos, but I was just so full from lunch and did not want to waste them.
Dinner had several appertizer choices, and I declined to sample all the choices.

LH deserves a lot of credits for:
1. Installing warmer lights in the upper deck first class section (verus cold lights in the Business Class) that brings out the colors better.
2. LH Cateing did a good job in food presentation in the first class cabin.
