Hello everyone! This is the second report about my travel to Italy last autumn. You can read the first part here and don't hesitate to leave a comment! This flight was my third experience with Air Dolomiti (before I've flown Munich-Bari and Munich-Ancona aboard them). So, let's continiue.
1. Munich Airport, Terminal 2
I've had no need to check-in again as I received my boarding pass in Domodedovo.
So, having gone to the transit signs to G&K gates, I've entered the departure hall (what a strange system).
And it's time for heading to the security check.
As I've never been to the satellite, I didn't stay in the older G gates.
The new BMW and Audi:
Instead of Rome, in Munich the people mover is underground.
Finally, I reached the newest part of Munich airport (by the way, on that day it passed 6 months since its opening).
There are many cafes and DFs there.
So, I decided to eat a sandwich in а cafe in the central part.
What really impressed me, it is the small exposition of the famous designer furniture Vitra.
The transit desk and one of the 30 gates.
The local spotting makes me feel in the "Kranichfeld".
SIA and SAS:
The boarding starts soon, so let's go back to the main terminal.
The tiny corrdior leading to J gates, which are not used (why?) and in the main building there are even no signs to them.
Back to the people mover…
The beautiful view to SIA's first 77W:
The miniature of the famous Allianz Arena:
Our gate is G63, located downstairs in the zone mostly dedicated to Air Dolomiti.
There are even computers with their design!
Before boarding:
2. Flight LH1944 Munich-Genova
The flight was operated by Air Dolomiti Embraer 195 I-ADJM.
Already for 6 years…
I like the colour of the seats but they are too tough.
The aircraft was loaded for about 50% or even less.
All the passengers have already entered the aircraft.
We started taxiing to the runway.
Very old A320… (27)
Our "brothers":
TK's 321:
LH's CRJ-900 taking off.
Two 346s:
The view on the terminals and the place where our aircraft was parked:
The famous "gloria":
After the take-off a cookie was given and also I took still water with lemon.
I really liked Air Dolomiti's wet towels.
Let's have a look at the cabin.
The legroom is good.
In my seat I had a safety card and two magazines - Spazio Italia and Lufthansa magazine.
Approaching…
Benvenuti a Genova!
Taxiing to our parking position.
We left the aircraft by a jetbridge.
Last look at our aircraft.
3. Genova Airport
Our baggage claim was 4.
Happily, our luggage wasn't lost. Finally, our travel is finished. Thank you, Air Dolomiti, for a good flight.

Conclusion
Terminal 2 of Munich Airport really justifies its 5* status. The new satellite is very comfortable and clean, looking forward to visit the non-Schengen L gates, unfortunately, Lufthansa doesn't have the transits via Munich airport to Moscow with a good timetable, or you are to depart from the city you need early, or you are to arrive in Moscow at midnight. Hope I'll find once the suitable variant! Air Dolomiti is a good option for short flights to Italy, but I will prefer Lufthansa - they have a big sandwich instead of a small cookie. The cabin design is in nice colors. Genova airport requires a reconstruction or even a new terminal because now it's old and cramped.

Thank you for the comment! Yes, I think that E195 is too big for such loading, but in winter this route is served by LH's CRJ-900. I've been this time to Genoa, Pisa, Cuneo and surroundings, Turin and Milan - so I'll post all these places in the next review.
Thanks for this FR. Though you had to walk a lot in MUC, it's still nicer to transfer at than FRA. Nice short flight, Air Dolomiti has something premium about it.
Thank you for the comment! Well, as for me, I like both MUC and FRA. In 17 days I will test ZRH on the way to Rome. Also I want to test new terminal in VIE one day.
Good report with amazing pictures! As Air Dolomiti is a subsidiary of Lufthansa, it's based in MUC? Because I find weird that Air Dolomiti is based in MUC although it flies planes with Italian registration. Regards!!

The loading factor looks poor on this flight. Nice view on LH ramp during the take-off.
Hope to see some pictures of Genoa as a bonus on the return reports!
