Beaches and Mountains: Lufthansa First Class Lounge Munich, Lufthansa Business Class Munich to Frankfurt
One Mile at a Time &bull Nov 26, 2011
We proceeded to the other end of the terminal where Lufthansa's partitioned off first class check-in is located. One thing I love about many airports in Europe are the flight status boards that still have the "flipping" letters and numbers instead of being electronic. There was no line at first class check-in and we were promptly helped by a friendly agent that checked our bags all the way to Chicago, which was our… Full Story »

Beaches and Mountains: Lufthansa Senator Lounge Paris, Star Alliance Lounge Paris, Lufthansa Business Class Paris to Munich
One Mile at a Time &bull Nov 4, 2011
Reality bites. After a most enjoyable Thai Airways flight we found ourselves in what I usually consider to be hell on earth, more commonly known as Charles de Gaulle. Except this time it wasn't actually that bad. We had a long layover due to the lack of award availability between Paris and Munich, so had about five hours to kill. We decided to head over to the Lufthansa Senator Lounge, which was quite a hike. After about a 15 minute walk and then clearing security, we took… Full Story »
