I am taking LH 417 in F Class in July. Its good news that boarding is not chaos as described in other threads.

So does this mean that LH F Class passengers can camp out at the NW club? Is there a club available somewhere near the gate? I know I can get into UA RCC and F&C International Departure Club, but it would be a real hassle to get to the B Concource since UA's clubs are on C&D.

Does LH ever depart from C concurse? How long before boarding should I be there for F Class boarding?

Thanks!

Food is a LOT better than UA. Not even comparable. Wine is better as well.

For a daylight flight I would pick LH. For overnight the better recline on UA might aid sleeping.
