Last year saw a trial offering by EN on the FRA-BGY route under the same concept.

So far so good. Especially for pax based in MUC who appreciate and enjoy the Air Dolomiti fares and service.

As the operation came into force with the start of the summer schedule some disturbing discrepancies come to light. The most important being lounge access.

- *G have no access to SEN lounges when travelling EN
- SEN can't take guests (travelling with them on EN) into the SEN lounge.

The first could be half understood assuming that EN doesn't want to pay for *G lounge access as they are not part of the *A. However, could you check with the powers above why SENs travelling on an LH group airline that is a fully integrated M&M partner airline cannot take guests into the lounge at a LH hub?
