Greetings all. Just booked a journey in C class, DTW-FRA via LH and FRA-IST via TK using United MP miles. I had a choice to book a 1 hr layover and fly on a TK A321 aircraft, or a 5 hr layover and fly on a TK A330 aircraft. I chose the later flight primarily because I thought the A330 would have a better business class because it is a wide-body aircraft. Secondary reason was I wanted to have enough time to experience lounge options in FRA. FYI, I am also a Priority Pass / Lounge Pass member. Here are my questions:
1) Did I do the right thing? Is waiting in FRA 4 hours worth it to fly in the A330 business class?
2) I've heard good things about the welcome lounge in FRA. We would want to shower and have a nice breakfast. Is it worth it to go through immigration to access it? Or are the LH business lounges good enough? Please keep in mind we are not EU citizens. I'm American; wife has Canadian passport.
3) Which lounge is best for waiting for the TK connecting flight? Would the Air Canada MLL be a better option than the LH business lounges? Are the priority pass lounges as good or better options? A day room where we can take a nap would be ideal. Also nice showers assuming we don't go to LH welcome lounge.
Thanks in advance!
