Limitation on access to MUC FCL
Just recently experienced that MUC FCL access is now "with same day *A BP arrival or departure". The lounge dra... eehm lady mentioned that this was introduced now to be inline with FRA FCT policy. She was not able to tell me if this is also for FRA FCL or only FCT.

Question around same topic: FRA FCL access will work with a guest having a BP neither came on my flight (inbound) nor is on my flight (outbound)?

I'm traveling MUC-FRA in Coach, connecting to FRA-EWR in F. Will my FRA-EWR F boarding pass will give me access to the MUC FCL, even though my MUC departure is Y?

I would fly MUC-EWR in F, but the arrival time is too late for my needs (630pm vs. 340pm going via FRA).

muc_flyer appears to be HON - so access only with a *A BP would a restriction. It used to be access to the FCLs with any BP, wasn't it. However, I do not buy the story before I read it...

exactly, it would make no sense whatsoever for SENs to be able to use the lounges without any BP, but not HONs

OK, but would you really do that? Not really that convenient.

OK, I see. Not sure LH wants to encourage this too much. You still have the SEN lounge.

All the answers given are valid for me from time to time. Escort of friends as well as non-*A-flights

Exactly, used to be non-restricted "good old days". However I have sympathies cause it is getting crowded from time to time in MUCs FCL already.
