Post lurid "this is what you'll never have" descriptions of your F flights while subtly mocking those who have to fly in more modest classes? OK, that's being a bit hard on Pucci, a bit more Brian Kelly territory I guess. I suppose entry level Pucci is being able to show you know considerably more about champagne than the average pleb, and having very firm views on what constitutes an acceptable amenity kit.

Nothing new, for the most part.

HA! I've flown it just 3 times in the last 6 months, that too only because of IRROPS - and not once this year!

I do have to admit that last summer I've done the six flights in as many days, if not worse...

There's a couple of qualified candidates on this forum, I would say, based on this entry level

Imposters! There is only one Pucci, and I suspect there will be a hair brush spanking for the lot of you!

Please no pucci shenanigans in the LH M&M forum... I always switch to speed reading the moment it starts in any BA thread. Bucket end of the spectrum is perfectly fine. (As long as you correctly pronounce it as 'bouquet')

I enjoy the 'boucquet' fares talk and trip reports a lot more than another LH/LX/AF/... F report. There is a lot more variety to be found and the people are generally a lot more clever moving around and through airports, from what I've been hearing and reading.

20 Eur fee for not using miles?

I was trying to book KSC-CDG on LH.com and found this oddity. When I am logged in it offers me to redeem cash&miles. If you do not use your miles it applies 20 Eur on top. Once you out, the it disappears

Castelnau, just mention that over on BA forum & then run for cover

The real story is when you can get LH.com & M&L to function at all

Yes, the LP NV in AC is much better! What BArb serves in her Oasis of Calm and in “Club Europe” I just can’t gob it down. Whereas the LP is very drinkable. And it’s not hidden away, the bottles are prominently placed in the AC lounge.

Another reason to choose other M&M airlines than LH then .

If one has to fly J, yes.

The menu for Mai shows Pommery, and Cuvée Louise for F. ^
