Check in :

I check in directly in ZRH as I was flying via Frankfurt. Check in was fast. luggage directly sent to HND.

Transit in FRA was smooth, but a long walk between gates at least 15 minutes and long tunnel walk without escalator.

arriving at the lounge : LH SENATOR

Lounge :
The lounge is reserved for Star alliance Gold and First class star alliance in FRA :

The lounge in B non Schengen is probably the best in FRA : with a complete Bar and a SPA (offering services)
and good view on the planes :

Conclusion

The lounge in FRA was better than excepted, LH improve the ground service recently I noticed.

The flight with ANA was lovely, the catering and the seat comfort was very good.

The FA were very discreet and professional.

I would take ANA again anytime, I understood why they score 5 * on Skytrax.

    Great report ! :)
    Some comments - welcome drink in plastic cup ??? 1st time I see airline who combined champagne with plastic ...:(
    Strange and below standards.
    Also breakfast on tiny tray ...not a lot of for so long flight.
    So knowing they are 5 stars airline ... that experience is a little bit dissapointing.
    Service of LOT Polish Airlines in C class on route from Warsaw to Narita is much , much better.
