If it's a same day onward Flight, you can use the LH F Lounge, otherwise just the SEN/*G Lounge.

I don't think there's any special recognition for members who have flown one million miles. The only time one million status (EQM) miles was mentioned was in connection with lifetime SEN status (ten consecutive years as SEN, over 60 years old and over one million status miles) which is discretionary even if it's still awarded.

All F seats are the same except those which have been converted with the new F seats (or seat and bed on B747). Check this thread for more info.

So far only 10% of B747 and 4% of A343/346 (no A330) have been converted but there may be some more by December. Unfortunately you cannot tell which routes these converted aircrafts will fly on any given day.

Ditto for wifi (FlyNet) availability.

If you only have 1.25 hr between your flights you can go to the FCT but won't have the time to "enjoy" your stay. 3 hr seems about right if you are going to the FCT for the experience.

I summarised the current situation in post #627 and hamallu has kindly posted some corrections in post #630. No MUC based aircraft has been retrofitted with the new F so far. With so few aircrafts retrofitted so far, you may be disappointed if you count on flying on the new F. The only certain way to try the new F is to fly on the A380 (though some people flying FRA-JFK are disappointed) but you can only get F awards on the A380 if you are HON or SEN.

The First Class Lounge may be used as an arrival lounge for LH and LX passengers. If you are departing on TG F you have access to the Senator Lounge which is designated as the first class lounge for *A F pax.

Where are you coming from and going to? Which airline? FRA has 3 First Class Lounges for LH/LX passengers in FRA and they are more or less the same.

My nomination took about 10 days until my family member's account reflected the new status. That was in April.

Forgive me, but just so I understand: it sounds like I may use the LH F lounge upon arrival into MUC from SFO as I am in F, even though I could also use the Senator lounge because I am *A F on the TG outbound, correct? If so, my wife is also in F but our children are in C, can they accompany us into the F lounge?

SFO-MUC LH F --> BKK TG F (two pax in F, kids in C)
PRG-FRA LH C --> FRA-YYC LH F (two pax in F, kids in C)
Will we get any tarmac car transportation either way that I've heard so much about?

Thanks, NewbieRunner!!

NewbieRunner

No, problem. Each F passenger can take one guest, plus spouse/partner and children under 18 with them into the F lounge. If you are departing to BKK on TG on the same day you can go from the F lounge to your TG flight. If you are not departing on the same day you will have to use the Senator lounge before your departure to BKK, again taking your children as your guests.

If you have more than a couple of hours in FRA (are you on LH1403/LH494?), you can certainly go to the FCT and get a limo ride to your flight. To go to the FCT, go to Exit and down to the arrival level, leave the main terminal building and turn left. It's about 5 mins walk from the main terminal. If you have less than 1.5 hours you can still go to the FCT but you may not have enough time to "enjoy the experience".

Headset adapters on Lufthansa metal? We have some noise cancelling headphones with the double plug but mine is old and doesn't fit in the LH metal seats (they seemed to set them back a bit so bigger plugs won't fit. My girlfriends seemed to work but would buzz when it was in so we both ended up with just listening mono with one plug.

Of course this is all in Y.. Anyone have any tips or a place to get adapters that actually work with LH. Seems my adapter works with every other carrier fine.. And why do they even still have these plugs? The airline could save so much time and money since 90% of people who travel have their own headphones anyways.

thanks

Is a Q fare on SQ upgradeable with eVouchers? Specifically, FRA-JFK?

b8b

Yes, we are on LH1403/LH494, so it sounds like barely enough time... is the F terminal worth going to instead of the F lounge then?

Thanks again, NewbieRunner!

Thank you, Matt!

Is this documented anywhere, just in case I have any trouble? Or is it well known by the LH FCL staff so I should be OK?

Luke newbierunner says, the LH F Lounge can also be used as an Arrivals Lounge, so you just show your SFO-MUC Boarding Pass, and don't even mention your TG Flight...

NewbieRunner

Since you are arriving from Schengen (PRG) it won't take much longer to go to the FCT than to the FCL and security is a lot easier in the FCT. I'd go to the FCT to ensure you get a limo ride to your plane.

Hi,
just a quick question. Would you rather recommend the LH or the Aegean Business Lounge in ATH?
Thanks!

Aegean hands down.
