I’m normally never flustered in MUC but recently I had a relatively tight connection from WAW to BHX, which wasn’t helped by a delayed pushback and a bus transfer instead of an air bridge. What made me flustered is that when I got to the EasyPass gates my passport refused to scan. I tried half a dozen different machines before joining the lines, where I had to make some excuses about my flight boarding in 10 minutes while edging my way towards the front.

My connection from BHX back to WAW tomorrow is via FRA and just 60 minutes and I’m hoping my passport will scan this time. It’s a valid ePass (with the symbol) and I don’t know why it refused to scan but I’ve had this problem a couple of times before in other airports.

Chip might got fried.. usually there's a fallback on the readable (swipe through) portion. Wasn't there a "guard" helping you with the problems? If the passport is eligible for this "shortcut" per se, there's no need to just go back in the (likely long) line of "other" passports.

That's weird. I usually have to try up to 2 or 3 machines before I get a successful scan of my passport at MUC and FRA, but it has never happened to me that all machines refused to recognize my passport. If you need the functionality often, it may be worth getting a new passport.

Sadly there was nobody around to help. That’s the reason I joined the line, because I couldn’t see any other way of getting through.

Given that I paid a kings ransom to get it renewed a couple of years ago I’d rather not go through that rigmarole all over again. It usually works and I’ve used it in places like TLV, IST, SIN and HKG in the last year without any issues. It’s only the European airports where I’ve ever had problems.

Not IME, my SIN arrivals were clean last year, some even arrived at D gates, although that didn’t help me to get to E lounge

I have had the same issues with my passport refusing to scan randomly & it was happening so often I asked the immigration staff at MAN & they thoroughly checked it & confirmed the chip & all data was fine & fully readable.

Hey guys!

I have a 4 hours layover in MUC. Coming from MAD LH1801, flying out to LHR in LH2480.

As I have quite a bit of time, can you recommend the top 2 lounges you would visit?

I love to have a manned bar, and good hot food.

Thanks!

The best staffed bar is probably in the non-Schengen lounge in the satellite. Food will be the same at all lounges of the same type.

Thank you! From what I see, there is only 1 staffed bar correct? Also, just to confirm that's opposite to gate H24?

He means the one by L11.

All Munich LH lounges have staffed bars, but in the K11 the selection may be a tad better. They also have a bar menu there and you can order stuff like a Whiskey Sour.

Also, I had a bit of a senior moment above. Not all MUC SENs have staffed bars. E.g., the bar in G28 SEN is self-serve.

Also, while the poster above is right that they all carry the same food, their rotation isn't necessarily in sync. So, in one lounge you might see the potato salad on the menu, while at the same time one of the other lounges has the obazda instead.

Yes, the one in L is best: newest, best bar, best view.

Food may not be in sync, I rarely tour all lounges to check on that, but very similar throughout the year across the lounges.

Thanks! Just to confirm, the awesome L11 lounge that you guys are talking about is the business lounge correct? Because i'm traveling J, so I can't enter Senator lounge.
