I have a feeling the the specials at MUC are better than at FRA. Had a nice leg of lamb Easter special last year. Enjoy!

I have had some great Special meals in FRA FCT/FCL’s too but this one would be hard to beat in any restaurant, I already passed on my congratulations to the Chef

FCL stands for First Class Lounge. It can be used by F and HON PAX only. If you're travelling in J you can use the business lounges. This said, if you have a 40-min connection you will probably not have time to visit any lounge, despite MUC's efficiency.

As last time arriving with 80 min Delay at the Satellite in MUC, there was no Time to explore the FC Lounge there, i had to rush to get my next flight at the Main Terminal.
This Time, it looks like an arrival at the Satellite with LX, arriving from ZRH (arriving there in First Class, the same day) transfering to LHR, the LH Flight leaving from H Gates.
As I have already read here, there are no limo transfers between the to FC-Lounges, so what are my options?
1. Go to FCL at the satellite, doing there the passport Control in the Lounge, change to the Non Schengen L? Part and then take the train to Main Terminal, depending time, visit the other lounge and then go to the deparure gate.
if this is unpractiable,(are there train compartments Schengen and Non Schengen?)
2. Take Train from Satellite to Main Terminal,Schengen Part, go to FCL and do immigration there
What are the experts opinion?
How much time should I have to do Version 1? (Would like to visit both FCL)
many thanks,
ettrich

Just go to the lounge in the satellite and enjoy. Then go to the gate if your flight leaves from the satellite or take the train if it departs from the main terminal. The lounge in the old terminal is not a must-see, as services are the same as in the satellite, minus the view and space. Enjoy!

If your flight from ZRH arrives at a K gate go to the FCL (entrance near gate K11), enjoy the lounge and leave the lounge on the non-Schengen level (L) after passport check. The shuttle between the satellite and the main terminal has three compartments (Schengen, unclean non-Schengen and clean non-Schengen) and you will be in the last section so there is no need for security check on arrival in the main terminal. If there is time you can visit the FCL (entrance/exit near gate H21).
Both FCLs have the same furniture and same food but as others have said the FCL in the Satellite is much nicer. If you want to visit both I’d leave the T2S FCL 40 mins before departure of the LHR flight plus the time you want to spend in the T2 FCL.
