And you get a small sandwich in Y outside of the morning block. I prefer the small sandwich to the LH rooftile.

just my two cents of course...

So I'm told, but ex-BHX TK was actually more expensive than LX, plus the TK website kept dying on me, so I booked LX in the end. E isn't that much worse than B/D, you know, especially with the lounge matrons in D. Last time I was there, the hostility level was almost like MUC a few years ago - just the word "Lufthansa" hissed at me.

I try to stick to BMI operated LH flights to/from FRA as long as possible.

LiS-ZRH again

Hi FT's,

I'm glad my post started so much discussion here.
I've already booked LIS-ZRH-PRG sectors. Is the same crap expected as out of IST? Last time I've flown with LH Italia LIS-MXP and the food was quite OK - white fish with rice and spinach catered by Porugees.

If the same artificial s...t from CH is served - I'll have to buy same salad on Portella airport.
