I was among the first to board, and was quickly welcomed to this Cathay Pacific/oneworld flight to Hong Kong.

The agent that was boarding First and Business Class passengers noticed my Miles & More Senator tag on my laptop bag and was borderline offended I wasn’t flying with Lufthansa to Hong Kong ( especially since I was flying out of Frankfurt). Keep in mind that in Frankfurt Airport Terminal 2, security is done by each individual gate (or “group” of gates), so you’ll want to leave some time before boarding to clear security (though it usually isn’t an issue and takes 5-10 minutes). I had a roughly two hour connection in Frankfurt, and I spent some of the time in the Cathay Pacific First/Business Class Lounge, which is located just across from Cathay Pacific’s gate. I didn’t know from where I would be flying Cathay Pacific (London, Paris, etc.), so I had to do some reissuing and changing of my ticket, a few times. Ultimately Frankfurt was the best choice based on my connecting flights from Kraków. ![]() I knew I wanted to redeem American Airlines miles to fly from Europe to Hong Kong for just 70k miles in First Class, pre-devaluation.
