Delta in MUC
Booked a r/t ATL to MUC direct…Delta changed it to ATL AMS, with connecting KLM into MUC. Same thing coming back….question is, does Delta have a presence in MUC, or do you have to check in at KLM for the Schengen flight, then cross into non-Schengen at AMS. Last time I flew out of MUC to ATL, it was easy to find the Delta ticketing area and gate…now??? Trying to minimize the wandering around the wrong terminal at MUC…Observations, comments, bitte sehr!

If it's one ticket, you check in once in each direction, with the *operating* carrier for the first flight in that direction. Bags will be checked through and you go through passport control (EU immigration) at AMS in each direction.

IIRC the terminals at MUC are basically *A (plus any other LH partners) and all other airlines....and of course Schengen and nonSchengen flights are separated.
