Thanks for all your feedback!


Do you know the possibilities at the terminal/gates/pier/carparkings? Since I'm leaving for VIE at 27/06 for a dayreturn, it would be nice to get some extra info.


Terminal/gates/pier spotting possibilities aren't great at all, but there's a multi-storey car park ...

Interesting report! After having avoided LH for a while on longer European legs I'm curious to see how they compare to LX on a route such as IST-FRA.

Thanks, sab319! The prices are quite reasonable.

very nice report. I truly enjoyed it. It seems that Emirates is an excellent airline (except for some unavailable food?). What about the drinks? You don't say very much about it.

EK offers a large variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and FAs are quite generous. But, as I said in the ...

Nice report! How much do they charge for the food? And what does the menu you talked about consist of?
