Booked one F award for travel this thanksgiving weekend

Try as I might, just couldn't get any intra-Germany flights on LH
Oh well, can't wait to check out the FCT.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I think you need to be arriving or departing in LH F in order to use the FCT......

I booked 3 C tickets last June
6/4/08 ORD - DTW - FRA - ATH C LH
6/14/08 ATH - FRA - DTW - ORD C LH
Again ANA was invaluable and I had to be persistant. ICC kept telling me there was nothing available.

I was under the impression that a LX flight connecting to LX F gets access to FCT. At least I hope so, I spent a few hours perusing that huge FCT thread and specifically re-routed from VIE back to FRA so I could try the FCT. I guess we'll see in a few days.

IAD-FRA-JNB-CPT and back.
I got two F *awards on LH all the way from IAD to JNB and then business on SA from JNB to CPT (Business is all they offer on that route) for Feburary the 24th coming back on March the 11th. Using United points.
160,000 points for each ticket and about $100 dollars in taxes.
I've done this three years in a row but it's getting much harder to find the F awards

. I was looking at your outbound rather than your return. I agree that you should have access when coming back ^ .
