If I fly BRU-FRA, it's usually Eco, but the few times I've flown it in C, there was a cold snack. Same as on other, similarly short routes such as FRA-ZRH.

I believe this depends on the time of the day. I've done this short hope in C and the service very much as described by MichielR.

Expertflyer shows J first row is blocked
, Im 6'3" and I really need some extra legroom. 
I know that it may be reserved for HON and/or SEN and FTL but I still wonder if there is anyway to choose it. (Im a SA*G)
Many thanks!

How can I become senator this year?
I am at 34k status miles, frequent traveller. Every week I travel economy ZUR-FRA for around 750 status miles per leg. If I continue like this I will end up around 79k status miles in this year. How can I get the missing 21k miles most easily?

More recent posts in this thread might give you some idea on how to collect those missing 21k miles.

Hi Everyone,
So, first message on here. I was basically wondering if there was an easier way for me to get SEN or Gold status than what I am doing at the moment.
I am flying a lot with Lufthansa from MUC (44 segments since January). But it is mostly in Europe and therefore I don't think I will reach the 100k status miles needed for SEN. I am currently at 35k status miles.
Any tips/recommandation would be more than welcome. I feel like I am not being very efficient status wise compared to the amount of times I fly.
Thanks!

If you only fly intra-Europe it's tough, you have to be very careful with your booking classes. Do you have any leeway when booking a trip or do you stick to the cheapest flight available?
You can check this thread to find ideas for cheap(-ish) mileage run ideas to top up your status miles at the end of the year.
Also don't forget that you are not chained to LH group, sometimes you can earn more with other airlines.

Arriving into FRA at about 4pm on a weekday and have a 9pm(ish) connection onto OSL (on LH metal)
Flying in paid J (incoming and outgoing), and am *G... whats the best lounge to use? (specifically after one with showers if possible)
The flight lists a "snack" for the FRA->OSL flight... whats this likely to be?

Snack will be something like sliced ham and/or cheese and/or salad and a roll. Plus some kind of mini-dessert.

My apologies for the question in advance if it had already been answered. I couldn't find anything relevant in search.
On M&M miles earning listing for SQ, it only mentions flights to/from/between non-European destinations.
Does it mean that SQ codeshare flights within Europe earns nothing with M&M?
Specifically, I am interested in SQ-coded SAS flights in Z, and I'm trying to work out whether I should credit this particular flight to M&M or not as I have alternatives (SQ or A3).
Thank you for your help.

It saves me messing about with two programmes for one itinerary.

Though not relevant to this discussion Z is a discounted booking class on LH while it appears to be a full fare business booking class on SQ. Hopefully Z on SQ will map to one of the higher business booking classes on SK which earn 2,000 M&M miles.

Thank you for the further info. Hopefully it'll map to a higher fare on SK like C, D or Z as it is part of a flex F booking, but I suppose it's a small part of the equation being somewhere between 750 and 2,000 so it won't really have any material impact, although the more, the better, of course.

Hi all,
I've been offered an upgrade to F (from Z) on a recent FRA-PEK (A380) route for ~1400 EUR when I use Manage My Booking on the LH website. I know that prices for upgrades are of course highly subjective and dependent on each one's valuation for J and F, but how better is the LH F product compared to LH J? I've never flown it before so I don't know if it is "1000 EUR better". Feedback would be greatly appreciated
