OK, I have it right in front of me: The destination tag had the two destiantions on it (I did ATH-FRA-BKK). FRA LH 3383 and then BKK LH 772. In white letters on a black background it also states "HON" on the destination tag.

Attached to this was the priority "HON" tag with the blue lining.

An LH BKK agent approached me and asked if I were waiting for Priority luggage. I told her I was waiting for a HON bag. She took my claim check and looked it up in the system and came back to appologise: "Sorry, it's with the bulk. Just some more minutes".

No real problem anyway.

Totall OT: At the FCT in FRA they were short of cars, so they had to use an MB minivan to bus 6 of us to the plane....
