M&M awards on AI have been difficult to get ticketed since day 1. As domestic fares in India are presently capped by the GoI it makes no sense to book an award and just buy a revenue ticket.

If one may ask then, is there a thread that compiles what are some no/minimum tax awards that can REALLY be booked from US using LH miles? Mine are expiring in a month despite having the Barclay CC and want to speculatively book so as not to lose them. All that I looked had heavy taxes negating their use.

Arrival procedures & wait times @ FRA
Debating between two flight options and could use some advice.
ATH-FRA-MEX in F.
We have Canadian passports.
Any data points on what kind of arrival procedures/wait times to expect in FRA these days coming off a Schengen flight.
Debating whether to come into FRA night before to get more time in FCT.
cheers!

Thanks for the info! I am also wondering if LH will carry me to MEX given I have next day hidden city connections to the US and I'm not American 
I'm planning to short check to MEX and tell them I will be making a change to my ticket in MEX (its an Air Canada 014 ticket). Will LH buy my story and let me fly? Thoughts appreciated - thanks!

FCT is very nice but the offering is way below what it used to be pre Pandemic, not worth an overnight stay at FRA for FCT added time.

How long does it take these days for flight credits to post to M&M?
I had a DEN-LAX on UA and LAX-ZRH on LX this past Monday (6th) and they still have not posted as of today. 724 ticket.
