...another Lounge access thread

Hi,

could not find the answer myself but maybe somebody can help me:

I am flying MUC-FRA in Y - and on the same Day FRA-NKG in F (on a separate Ticket)
I guess in FRA i can use every Lounge i want with the F-Ticket,
but what about MUC? Is there any Lounge i can use? (No Status with StarAlliance)

And how about guests? My Father is Flying MUC-HAM the same day (LH-Y, no status) Any Change i can take him as a guest with me into a Lounge?

Thanks for your help

I assume you will check in for both of your flights in Munich, so you will hold a F boarding pass in your hand.

This will give YOU access to the First Class Lounge. If I am not mistaken, you will not be allowed to bring your father who is on a different flight.

You are allowed however to bring him into the Senator lounge as your guest.

And if you check in at the MUC curbside with F in your trip, you can leave your rental car there and the valet agent will return it for you ^

I figured I should ask here insteaf of starting a new thread

I have a 13 hours Layover IAD-FRA-CAI where the second leg is LH F, I'm assuming that's a typical FCL access.

Now I have an overnight CAI-FRA-IAD where the first is LH F and the second is UA F, do I have FCL with a UA F outbound? or with my LH F inbound?

Is there a cheap overnight hotel in FRA?

THANKS

13 hours is far too long to spend in a lounge. Is it 13 hours during the day?

Now I have an overnight CAI-FRA-IAD where the first is LH F and the second is UA F, do I have FCL with a UA F outbound? or with my LH F inbound?
Your inbound LH F BP should get you into the FCL but not your UA F outbound BP. The latter should get you into a SEN lounge.

Flying in F and looking for a cheap hotel?

- even if it is just a short haul international, not a long haul?

-Yes (award)

LH F is LH F whatever the distance. To access the FCL you must have the same day F BP on LH metal.

Thought it might be.

I suggest you check the Germany forum for what to do during your long layover and a cheap overnight hotel.

Hi,

I'm flying LHR to FRA in LH Y and then FRA to PEK in LH C later on the same day.

They are ticketed on different PNRs.

Can I get my boarding pass for the second segment in LHR and tag bags through to PEK? If not, when is the earliest I can check bags in at FRA for a later flight?

I am doing the same on the return journey, can I access the C lounge at FRA on my return journey with my boarding pass from the first segment (given the LHR leg will be in Y).

Thanks for your advice.

Why don't you check-in online and print both BPs? You should be able to have your bags checked through to PEK.

I thought you could but lounge access rules on this page suggest you need a BP for same-day departure on *A to access the C lounge. It's a pity the Welcome Lounge is closed by the time you arrive in FRA. I think the opening hours of the Welcome Lounge discriminate against arrivals from Asia.

I think the same. The only reason to go through FRA is Asia... (in my eyes)

FCL A and FCL B are both listed as 7-22:30, but no times given for FCT.

A little bit of scrolling and searching won't do you any harm.
