As there was lot of complains from HON's, it is good they finally most probably find as well that this kind of pennycounting by keeping HON/F facilities closed cause just even more lack of cash and by that they now will do at least something.
If the limousine service will also start again, LH have a better chance have HON's money again.
Current situation is 100% unacceptable on any sense at least for me.

It will be interesting to see 1) if/how the offering will be different from pre-corona and 2) if the lounge gets overcrowded due to FCL B and FCT still being closed, especially since it’s not huge.

Great news... but the HON service line was not aware? What is your source for this information?

The HON service line is not aware of many things, including the upcoming flight schedule. At least that was when I called them as of a week and a half ago. They're pretty much kept in the dark on all of this stuff from my experience.

Thanks, so your HON PA was your source? (don't have my "own" PA so far I know...) But in that case: good news, might reconsider some upcoming flights.

Hopefully, the offering will be better than the McD fries and nuggets referred to by sophialite in the other thread.

Indeed rather strange not to inform the HON members and not even the HON service, but to publish the information on twitter...
Most important question is: Will the limo service be back as well?

The communication to HONs will go out soon, the announcement was made on twitter was made asap to pass on the good news. It seems the FCT sees 200 pax on a normal good day and with current booking rates at 15% in FRA the don't even even expect 30-60 pax to show up in the FCT. Hence the decision to monitor and open as required.
