i guess the idea behind it is that a) you can already check into your hotel at that time or b) it will be easier to get a shower in the SEN/C lounge in the afternoon. any arriving pax can go there and have them call down to hold the lugagge, even though in most cases you will still be down at the belt before your bags after having a shower and some food...

BA does limit the arrivals lounge access to longhaul flights. Only First, Club World and World Traveller Plus / World Traveller bookings are eligible. (i.e. these products are only on longhaul flights, Club Europe and Euro Traveller are excluded)

The arrivals lounge also closes at 2pm IIRC at LHR, which is obviously no good for late arrivals in the afternoon. I do think LH should consider extending the opening hours to 2pm at least.

Last time I did this, the LH baggage claim guys/girls (luckily?) said "guarded" my bags against unwarranted disappearance, as a flight from Pakistan had just landed, and I was like 1 hour late! ^
Kudos to them for once - usually my baggage either:
1. Can't be retrieved.
2. Cannot be located.
3. Other weird and wild stuff...

When I arrived back to MUC from HKG a few weeks ago I vaguely heard before landing (it was c. 5am) that F & C pax were welcome to a lounge which was already open. I was heading for one of the SEN lounges and didn't pay much attention to the announcement but did I hear it correctly that there was an unofficial arrivals lounge at MUC?

So... has anyone tested out the new arrivals lounge yet? If so what is the overall opinion?

Thanks Rambuster for clarifying this, wasn't aware of this! Have never been on the "Dark Side" so far (), I just asked a colleague of mine who wasn't quite sure about it but thought so...

German snail mail customs
I ordered FT luggage tags which now sit a mile away from my apartment at the local customs office. I got mail that I should come there with proof of purchase and CC printout.
The order confirmation only contained a short 'sent it via USPS First' but no price whatsoever. I guess it's going to be one of the fun moments when we open the envelope and pull out $4.50 worth of merchandise
