I am able to select both seats and a child meal for my son for the outbound flight MUC LIS on TP. I don't have this option on the slightly longer return flight operated by LH, and I am unable to select any seats for that flight. Granted that this is a codeshare flight I find it very odd that you cannot reserve any seats (especially if you are travelling as a family) until 23 hrs. before departure. This is the statement I got from calling the SEN Hotline. Inquiring about the option to get a child meal I was told that child meals are only available on flights longer than 5 hrs. I was also told that since my flight was a codeshare and the ticket has been issued by TP and since it was booked through a non-airline site that no seat reservations are possible.

Frankly, I find it this rather odd, since the webpage states (https://www.lufthansa.com/de/en/Seat-reservation) that seat reservations for SEN in Business Class travelling on LH metal are possible. Regarding child meals the webpage (https://www.lufthansa.com/de/en/Chil...menus-on-board) mentions



How is determined which flight has the option to cater a child meal? IMHO, I would expect that option on a 3 hr flight, since it is one of the longer intraeuropean flights operated by LH.

Thanks and happy holidays,
