  • Lufthansa this week

    I just flew into MUC via FRA on LH A380 Premium Y. A pretty good way to get from SIN to Europe overall, and a very interesting PE product concept. Will post a TR on this later.

    What is interesting is that I flew in on Sep 6, and will fly out on Sep 10.

    Turns out LH longhaul is on a 24 hour strike today Sep 8, and short/medium haul is on strike on Sep 9.

    Thankfully those are both days I am not flying! But I didn't realize I was taking such a big risk of disruption when I booked my tickets.

    Hopefully there isn't a spillover effect when I fly out on Sep 10 (in regular Y).

    MUC is not a bad place to be stuck in unless you're heading back to SIN to vote.

      Munich is a great place to spend time in! But that is exactly the reason I have to head back to SIN that day...

        Yeah Lufthansa strikes are pretty common it seems.

          I got caught out by this with my flight to the US cancelled. But one quick conversation and they got me on a United flight.

          Unfortunately United business class really is crap but at least I got to where I needed to be on time.

            No delays for me today. Did my MUC-FRA on schedule, and I am currently on LH778 FRA-SIN, on time, which means I get to vote after I land at 4pm.

            They are so organized here in Germany. Tuesday was the long haul strike (Glad you managed to fly out on United, Lobster!). Wednesday was short and medium haul. And on Thursday, everything is running like clockwork again...

                  Very surprising GE results to say the least.

                      I can see which side of the political divide you lean on.

                          Another friend of mine, with quite different political views, also rushed back to Singapore on another flight, and cast his vote with just minutes to spare.

                          Our efforts probably cancelled each other out...
