I had a fantastic time in NCE and enjoyed the laid back atmosphere of this Mediterranean city. It is evident that this part of France has a very strong Italian influence and here are a couple of pictures from my walks. Due to its close proximity to NCE, I also took a side trip to Monaco.





Monaco




The day of my departure, lagentsecret and I went to the airport together. He had a longer layover since his flight did not depart until about 6-7 hours later. I checked at the LH counter in T1 and was helped by a cheerful agent who made me check my carry-on citing that it exceeded the weight limits. Then I headed upstairs and after a few minutes I said goodbye to lagentsecret and went through security which was a quick and painless.

Boarding started a few minutes late and once inside the jetbridge, we were held for an additional 5-10 minutes. There were two FA's at the door chatting and one of them acknowledged my greeting and replied back when I passed them.

Thankfully my neighboring seat was empty and I was able to stretch out Unfortunately I was sitting at the wrong side of the plane because I missed all the spectacular views of the Riviera upon take off ( I was on the right side).

FA's went into action by distributing sandwiches and drinks. The crew today lacked warmth except for the male FA who was attentive and professional. His female counterpart working in the back just went through the routine like a robot. At first she just gave the turkey salami sandwich to everyone and when some passengers inquired about another choice, she went around distributing the other option to each passenger who asked for the other choice after she finished giving away the salami ones.

Conclusion

Comfort was average but at least I was able to recline sitting in the last row.

Crew lacked charmed and was robotic, with the exception of the male FA who appeared to enjoy doing his job.

Catering correct for the flight length.

It's always nice to arrive a bit earlier than excepted.

    Thanks for sharing this FR

    she went around distributing the other option to each passenger individually after she finished giving away the salami ones.
    So you might be able to have both options ?

    The sandwich looks quite good except that with LH you have to eat cheese anyway !

    Great aerials pictures

    Paxbus even in MUC :( not really a comfortable way to access the terminal

    See you soon for your next LH leg

      I corrected that sentence to reflect that she gave the other option to those who asked for a different choice.

      Not a problem. You know I love cheese.

      Great aerials pictures
      Thanks.

      It was not too bad. Besides, I had the chance to see the plane up close that way. I guess I like to see the glass half full instead of half empty. ;)

      Thank you for your comments.

    Thanks for sharing this report.
    NIce is a great city and despite being French I really feel on vacations and far away when I go there. By your bonus I see that you went to the good spots.
    The cabin is nice and quite classy and I like embraers for their 2X2 layout. The catering is ok for such a flight. Too bad the other FA's were not as smiling and professionnal as the young male FA we see in the pictures.

      Embraers are quite popular among this discerning crowd. It is a great airplane and personally I wouldn't mind riding it on a long transcon flight.

      I enjoyed the laid back atmosphere of NCE and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding areas. You are lucky to enjoy this corner that is so close to you.

      Thanks.

    Thanks for sharing, beautiful photos of Nice and Monaco!

    I liked my time on LH's ERJ 190's, very comfy planes!

    Many thanks for sharing this report,

    Your plane is an Embraer 195 instead of an Embraer 190,

    beautiful photos on board,

    New Satellite Terminal at MUC (in service next year) looks great and it will surely limit bus transfers to the terminal building.

    Thanks for this FR.

    I flew on D-AEBI on MUC-CDG back in 2013.

    Classic service on a LH flight, the sandwich looked good though.

    Too bad one of the cabin crew wasn't nice, not welcoming passengers with a greeting and worse not responding when the passenger says Hi really is unforgivable.

    I watched with interest the bonus of a French city through your eyes :)

    The flight is really nice in these ERJ (2-2 configuration), clear sky for beautiful views and a decent snack.

    Thanks for sharing !
