So if I'm doing a MR to MUC (actually 2, a week apart), is it best to tell them that's the point of my trip? The first is just 1 night, the 2nd 2 nights (so I can explore a little). These are Dec 2-3, then Dec 9-11.

Also--on the 2nd trip, I fly MUC-FRA (on LH) before an int'l connection to PHL (on US); will that just be domestic, if so will I make a 95 min LH to US connection in FRA?

I'm 38, of European descent, and will just have carry-on bags with me for both trips.
