Okay, so, security a second time, on the plane, left my cell phone at the X-ray machine and had to run off the plane to get it, blah blah blah. Cut to Munich.
This time, we flew through Munich instead of Frankfurt. What a gorgeous airport! It felt very, very new, and it is spectacular. Very German in its spare design, but so impeccably thought out. Quality everywhere you look. This picture only shows a very small sample of the design.
Glass is used liberally throughout. The walls and ceilings (well, not this ceiling) are glass. Sun comes in from everywhere. Much of the airport did not feel like an airport. The mall in the center was beautiful, and had some high-end stores and some inviting café areas.
