Lufthansa and Frankfurt
The management by the leading aircrafts for the journey has become
worse than the mind can blow. It is not to criticise anyone but those who
talk all about the aircrafts without exposing themselves, to the pros and
cons of a private management must understand the order of the day.
There was a time when so many were travelling by British Airways
and Lufthansa as a prestigious service. But today both are lagging behind
in service and the comforts of the passengers apart from the awkward
behaviours in serving the flight passengers. Passengers are under duress, a
kind of plight in the flight. There was a time, when even 30 minutes
transit of the passengers were carried out smoothly, in leading the
passengers from one flight to another, either within the same bay or far
away in another boarding place. There was a time in India Delhi and Mumbai
airports tortured the international passengers, in transferring themselves,
in between the local to international airports. People may have to cross
out and then take taxis to land in the international airports and where the
flight times are so close, they will have their lungs outside. But
Frankfurt is an airport one shall never touch in his journey route.
The competition between the flight companies has become cut throat.
Whereas once flights of different companies found their parking in one bay
for the continuous take off, so that a short transit interval did not
assume that kind of importance, today, the competition engulfed the
companies in having their own Bay. THE NET RESULT WHILE BOOKING TICKETS, IF
ONE WERE TO CONNECT TWO FLIGHTS OF DIFFERENT AIRLINERS, AND IF ONE WERE TO
TRANSIT IN SHORT TIME, THOSE PEOPLE HAD IT AS A PUNISHMENT, BECAUSE OF THE
ii FLIGHT COMPANY’S IRRESPONSIBILITY AS THEY ARE IN DIFFERENT BAYS,
DISTANCED BY A FEW MILES AND THE DURATION IS SO SHORT. And if the senior
citizens who go around with the wheelchairs, they have it, and some may
even die from heart attack. Lufthansa makes one’s experience bitter. Like
Chhatrapati airport they are not outside Frankfurt. Inside the so many
acres, your first flight landing in comfort AT BAY A, would make catching
the transit flight ay bay B (distance over 4 miles) bitter unendurable
either by your own efforts to reach or through the help of the Lufthansa
attendants, who take the fat pay but are not interested in shifting you
over faster. FRA CARE THE SERVICE PROVIDER IS INTERESTED IN THEIR SCHEDULE
IN YOUR TRANSIT RATHER THAN HELPING THE SENIOR CITIZENS DO REACH SAFELY TO
THE CONNECTED FLIGHT IN ANOTHER Bay within the airport acreage.
The horrible part of the Frankfurt airport is not knowing German
fluently to converse with them and they do not know English. A matte of 4
miles by electric car is not done in one trip; but breaking in 3 or 4
lounges without even informing you when the next will pick up; and Fra care
of the airport and the Lufthansa mar your life, by resting you in dead
silence, when the clock is ticking by. Once my co-brother missed the
connecting flight by such stupid Germans (who are literally apart from
original Germans, mixed with African German, Indian Andra-Pradesh German,
French-German, Italian etc. All are sitting quite unperturbed and
conversing in German. But they will operate only on their schedule. The
great Lufthansa operates in contrast competition with United Airlines;
Business class is 3rd rate passenger flight in Lufthansa; service is
absolutely nonsense. Economy does not mean being stringent in providing
food facilities. If you do not check, you will be provided chicken instead
of the Asian vegetarian. The service will charge you for the internet on 18
euros but once you buy, the 10th minute, there will not be any internet and
thereafter, no one will come beside you at all.
And adding fuel to fire is that your luggage will not be
transited in your flight; and the text sent to the destination that it is
not arriving, will not be announced in the mike once the destination is
reached. But after waiting for > 2 hours, Lufthansa fills the luggage
collections at their own speed, and will throw out of gear, at least a
dozen passengers exhausted from waiting. Thank GOD Lufthansa staff are in
their chairs to complain, and they will ask you why you did not come early,
we have the text of non-arrival; They will take down the details and send
you home the next day with your luggage intact. But one-way happiness will
be marred by the other way of the Lufthansa. Avoid Lufthansa and Frankfurt.
Singapore is good but nowadays it has become costlier. Emirates is fine but
inside discrimination may persist. Air India till date indeterminate.
British food will be unpalatable. But with all these I consider Emirates
far better than all. K RAJARAM IRS 11 8 23
