From Berlin to Shanghai

Friday 05.01.18

My LH flight LH191 from Berlin to Frankfurt is on time. However, I have to wait almost half an hour for my bag. Since I couldn't book a through ticket from Berlin to Sydney, I have to pick up my luggage in Frankfurt and check in again.

Conveniently, the check-in is directly above the baggage claim - not at the LH counters, but further to the left, but I have time.

The Air China (CA936) flight only departs at 19.00h and I tried to find out in advance from the Air China hotline how to get to the Business Class Lounge in Shanghai. As it turns out gradually, all the statements made by the Air China employee a few days ago were wrong. I neither have to register at Frankfurt for the use of the lounge in Shanghai, nor do I have to pick up my luggage and check in again in Shanghai, nor is the lounge accessible for tickets with numbers starting with 999.

The business class is great. Lots of space and you can lie comfortably on the flat beds. Content
