Is 50 minutes enough in FRA for a connection from MUC-FRA-DUB ?
This is about the only option i got to fly to DUB from CLJ in November and it's on one airline(LH) without having to change. My entire flight is CLJ-MUC-FRA-DUB and the connection time in MUC is about an hour and a half which is plenty of time i think since i've connected with less time to go to SFO. But the FRA-DUB leg is worring me a bit.

Your MUC-FRA will arrive at an A gate, FRA-DUB should leave from B (B4x).
From your A gate you should take the tunnel (near Gate A17) to B. There, you just go through border control (no security check) and done. In a best case scenario, you get there in 10-15mins depending on border queue and your walking speed.

Hi,
Could someone please advise me how to handle transfer at EDDF without 1 ticket (with hand luggage) to EPGD via EKCH on Friday around 19:30-20:30.
Australian Airlines plane has departure at EDDF at 19:40, then I need to catch SAS flying to EPGD via EKCH
Any tips, please...

Hmm.. so you want to fly FRA-CPH-WAW? Australian Airlines ceased operations in 1992, only to briefly appear as a Jetstar precursor in 2002-06, and never flew to FRA/EDDF. I'm really confused....

Welcome to FT, schumitza!
You are probably thinking of LH1673-LH097-LH978. Since lufthansa.com sells this ticket it is a legal connection but it does not guarantee you will make the connection in FRA. You should be ok if you are prepared to be put on the next flight LH980 arriving in DUB at 17:10 in case of misconnect. Or you can try and book LH1673-LH095-LH978 which gives you 1hr45 in MUC and 1h20 in FRA to improve your chance of connection in FRA.

Thanks, I;ve just seen the one with the 1.20 connection time on the LH flight and will try to get my agency to book that one since the ticket is not already booked only reserved.
Yeah, i think 1.15 in MUC and 1.20 in FRA is much more doable since MUC seems to me a much easier connection that FRA.

So you want to do this on separate tickets?

Hmm... its certainly possible. Reasonable? Maybe not.

If you are a Dirty Harry fan (the Eastwood film from 1971) there is a particular quote that comes to mind:
"you've gotta ask yourself a question: "Do I feel lucky?""
If the answer is yes, I suppose the only risk is blowing a few hundred euros on a new ticket and possibly having to overnight in FRA if the flight is full.

Coming from VIE you can walk to the CPH gate without any security, so no fast lane required. Both will depart from concourse A, the risk factor is if the OS/LH flight from VIE is delayed. SK doesn't know you are connecting and will not wait. They will probably close the flight 15min before departure.

Great, do this should work...
So basically, what is the difference if I would have (fortunatelly) one ticket?
