It's much more likely the bag will just follow you to MUC and then go back to DXB

Although if they are clever they will find a way of making it transit at DXB for a longer period of time.
Thanks. Actually hadn't considered whether they'd let me check in for the whole itinerary through to SIN, and if I can get all 4 BPs then they're not going to through check by bag either I guess. I'll just have to see how things go at JFK. Maybe there's a left luggage facility at MUC if all else fails.
Does anyone have any experience with the lounge at MUC? If I conclude my business early then wondering whether I should stay in the city centre a bit longer or head back to the airport. (Been to Munich many times before so no sightseeing required).
