To add to this, I flew ZRH-DUS the other day, pleasant enough flight despite the 30 minutes or so delay. It seems that the SMART tariff has now completely changed and includes no simple catering but does include priority boarding. I actually think, despite not liking BoB catering, that this is a good thing because that catering was a total insult. Somehow it is less annoying that the crew don't spend a good part of the flight trying to decide who to give that ridiculous sandwich to and who not to.

Do I think drink service should still be included? Yes. Do I think this is mostly a cost cutting measure? Of course. Do I mind all that much? Not really.

Hi,
I'm in Business class (M&M redemption) EWR - DUS next year and I'm slightly confused. As I have a LH Booking Ref/ Brussel Airlines Ref/ EW Ref
As it is a LH booking they would rebook me in case of IRROP? Brussels provides the logistic (or whatever that operated by indicates) ? It is a Brussels or EW crew?
And while I called in and got my seats (5 rows of 2-2-2) I was wondering if I can change that online somehow? And I would check in online/at the Airport at LH/Brussels/EW?
Very nice/low surcharges ($5.60 pP)

Looking at DUS-EWR on basic fare. Do they, as part of standard procedure, weight carryon at gate? I know airberlin did that at DUS. If weight is exceeded, how much do they charge at the gate to transport in hold?
One way is $210 USD with tax included. Alternatively I can buy a round trip on IB/BA and throw away the return for $300. IB didn’t weight my carryon.
Thanks.
