Germany Munich Airport Emirates Lounge

11 June 2016

Dinner time

Getting to the airport by train in Munich

Getting to the airport was no problem, once here I pulled off an exercise in contortionism to change my clothes inside a toilet cubicle with all my bags.
Then I went to check in at the time Emirates advised check in would open, and waited. I waited with some important looking Arabs, who were going completely insane that the counter did not open on time, they were all ringing someone in Dubai at Emirates to complain!
The German counter nazis then opened about 20 minutes late, or wandered slowly over as a group to pretend to open, I was braced for excitement and not disappointed.
The first person served was from the economy line, this sent my new Arab friends over the edge, they started hurling abuse which seemed to have the German Emirates staff very amused, until he handed one of them his phone.....
Then there were all kinds of apologies going on, and the manager came over and personally apologised, not to me of course, but to anyone who might have called the boss of Emirates in Dubai.

The screen showing the opening time. I only took these photos because other people seemed so incredibly mad about it. I guess the guy at the front had 6 people in first class, so hes paid $60,000!

And here is the dinner I served myself. I will get multiple meals on the plane but didnt eat much all day due to Museum food.
The big white thing is white asparagus, finally got to have that.
The gloop in front of it is delicious Malaysian style curried vegetables, probably the highlight.
Now its only 6 hours to Dubai, in 3 hours time.... then a couple of hours there, then 14 hours to Melbourne.
