The food is olympic themed. Some sort of chinese fusion theme which didn't excite me much.

Rimova is one of those german things hardly anyone outside europe appreciates (in essence its lightweight stylish luggage available in polycarbonate and aluminum versions: the former extremely sturdy and durable the latter outrageously expensive and easily dented). The current F promo is trying to change that.

UA staff in the US loves my 4-wheel Jumbo XXL trolley, they often tell me they also want to get one of those. IMHO, there's no better lugagge, period.

... except in Japan.
One with a LH logo could be a collector's item.

Zero Halliburton seems to be similar, though at much lower prices ?

The prices for Rimowa luggage appear to be quite standard in the US. Where have FTers found the best prices on Rimowa?

Yes, the RIMOWA amenity cases they give out in F are really.. They are now my favorite amenity bag based on the design. Second is the former BA F Grey Anya bag..

I just got off the plane from FRA-IAD in F, and the FA was really nice and when I complimented on the cases she gave me a bag with all three colors as I deplaned. The grey one is for woman.

The best luggage is of course a good old hiking Rucksack and 2 meter ski bag with wheels on it ;-)

I prefer the good old days when they provided a range of L'Occitane toiletries. I'll post a picture this weekend if no one else does it before.
Wishing everyone safe travels.
Not sure if this is still needed, but here's a picture of the case:

And another one of the contents:
