Shower Me with Advice
Heading to Warsaw from the US in a few weeks and I just learned that I will need to be meeting ready when I am picked up from the airport in Warsaw. I fly United from ORD to MUC overnight and have a 90-min connection before continuing to WAW on Lufthansa.
Flying in E+ as a United 1K, what are my options to clean up at one of the lounges before my next flight?
I usually don't go through Munich and am unsure of the typical procedure and time for clearing customs etc. Do I need to grab bags and re-drop? Is there a shower-equiped lounge close by?

You need to go through passport control and probably re-clear security at MUC. Theres no need to collect / re-check baggage.
As an UA 1K you can access both the LH J and the LH SEN lounges which all have showers, though there may be a long waitlist in the morning.

OP is traveling non-Schengen>Schengen zone: only has to go through passport control. No security.

Does that apply to all non-Schengen -> Schengen connections?

Hi everybody, I am a member of Life Miles, and also One World, I was a member with US Airways Star Alliance and used it quiet a few times
We never had a problem with the Los Star Alliance, now after the Merger we want to Buy Miles and travel to the UK in 2015, we would prefer to go First Class once again, however we are finding it a little difficult with searches, we have the KVS Search tool and have also had a look at the Life Miles Flight search.
So far Availability is very poor, any body got any thoughts on which way to go as we have 100% offer from Life Miles also One a World we have joined the JL BA and Qantas for Life Miles system, but would like advice on which is the best one to purchase from Australia
Thanks in Advance James

What does your question have to do with transit at Munich Airport?
