Air Canada flights arrive in B. If you have a same day LH F boarding pass you can go to the FCL B though you need to clear transfer security. You can stay put until departure of your LH flight but I don’t recommend spending the whole day in a lounge. I suggest you leave the FCL and go into the city or at least move to the FCT at some point. If you decide to stay in the FCL B they’ll drive to your LH flight as long as it doesn’t leave from a B gate.

Is this a fair summary (without leaving the airport)?
- Arrive AC @ B gates --> transfer security --> FCL (B) --> depart (likely walk)
- Arrive AC @ B gates --> walk + more pleasant transfer security --> FCT --> depart (P/MB/BMW etc)
- Arrive AC @ B gates --> transfer security --> FCL (B) --> FCT --> depart (P/MB/BMW etc)

You can't get into FCT while keeping clean.

2. Arrive AC @ B gates --> passport control > walk + more pleasant transfer security --> FCT --> depart (P/MB/BMW etc)
3. Arrive AC @ B gates --> transfer security --> FCL (B) --> passport control > FCT --> depart (P/MB/BMW etc)
2 will give you two opportunities to collect FCL/FCT ducks.

We should probably also mention that the FRA day rooms are strictly only for a nap if one is desperate to get some shuteye, unlike the wonderful rooms at the FCL at ZRH in E.

Right now, its mostly black standard ducks. But there will be Easter ducks, summer holiday, Octoberfest ducks etc. but supply levels are very inconsistent.

The ZRH situation with LX is ridiculous, only 2 dayrooms, only in E FCL & on one occasion they were occupied for the entire day, 6am until 10pm for 2 F Pax, Father & Son on the same flights, go figure.... LH have the correct policy, be fair ^

Yes, but not guaranteed, however there are 6 in total at FRA across the F lounges

LHs rooms could probably do with a bit of an upgrade. The leather bunks are not all that comfortable.
