Yep. Nothing special at all.
I fly into FRA from AMM with 3 hour plus layover. Never so happy to have a layover.
? Who would I get to take me over to the FCT at FRA? Is there a LH service desk secure side at FRA or possibly the "transfer" desk LH?
I keep checking. And checking.

Ticket has nothing to do with it. I used the FCT on a BA ticket.
Right...
Yes, O class (be it award or upgrade) gives FCT/FCT access.
Right.

Right.

Go to the First Class check-in area (outside security). Ask one of the desk agents to call the van. Usually takes only 5-10 minutes. There's a little waiting area right there.

You can also walk if you don't have much luggage. If the weather is nice, I prefer it to the van.

I've done the van before. So there is no contact/transfer point from the secure side since I will be coming in that morning from AMM?

This is the one dumb thing LH does. By the fact you have to go landside to get to the FCT, one can tell they really designed it for O&D pax.

Agree. It seems to me w/ all those limos floating around, it'd be very easy to pick up pax from the main terminal and drop them off at the FCT w/o having to leave security.

Disagree. There is a shortage. I have a friend who always gets the :van: at the FCT going to the plane. It's silly to go to the FCT of just transiting FRA. Just go to the FCL.

They actually have a shortage of limo's at the moment, the restriction is placed on LH by Fraport. From what I hear though, the limit will soon be increased with the intention of picking up connecting F pax and taking them to the FCT.
