Lufthansa Euro Business to Rome

In Munich, Lufthansa only provides limo service to planes operating from a remote tarmac position.  Unfortunately unlike my LHR flight last month, our Rome flight departed from a real gate, Gate K04 about a 5 minute walk from the Lounge.

Amazingly, all other passengers were seated with no gate lice at all.   Since we had the bulkhead seats and no nearby available seats, we became gate lice, standing at the gate for 5 minutes before boarding commenced.

Welcome aboard the ever uncomfortable phony Business Class seats that European airlines get away with.

Friendly cabin crew offered excellent service after take-off and closed the galley curtain immediately.  Time to promote this crew to international First Class.  I wasn't hungry but took the lunch offering for the photo opp. 

The custard dessert and chocolates were good.

FCO is not the most attractive airport, although there were pretty pics of Rome along the way to the exit.

Our personable Hassler driver Momy was waiting for us outside baggage claim.   After a short walk to the car, we were on the road and at the hotel 35 minutes later.
