Zrh-frankfurt-lax

Hi Everyone,

Anyone from these forum did these route:

Zurich LH 1183 leaving at 07:50am arriving in Frankfurt 8:55am ( then, take a bus, transfer, walk, passport control, segurity control, etc )

Frankfurt-Los Angeles LH 456 leaving at 09:55am ( but is USA Flight, many segurity before boarding, check visas, passaport, etc )

Do you think that 40min is ok to make these coneccting flight ?

I am in Business Class and I called LH and I ask what whapenning if my flight from Zurich is late ( these flight is late everyday...! I know becuse I fly in these LH 3 times per week and is late with a minimun 30min and arrived late plus take a bus, walk etc, is more that 50min ) and LH say that the will put me in the next fligh ( LH just have one flight to LAX per day ) and the others option are US Airways, with a stop anywhere and United with a stop,

So, What is the best to do in case ?

1.- In Zurich if I know the fly is late , Can I ask the LH staff if I can fly with Swiss from Zurich ( the Swiss Flight leaving at 13:10pm ( even if I am at the airport from 6:30am, I prefer to wait in Zurich and fly with Swiss that USA carrier )

2.-LH put me in any flight from Frankfurt to LAX even I dont like to fly with USA Carriers ?

3.-Oder LH will ask me if I want to fly from XXXX to LAX with XXXX carrier ?

4.- Remember : is paid ticket in Business Class

Any comment?
