Haven't been following the NZ thread, what food did you bring and did they inspect it?

I am leaving soon myself to AU and NZ and would love to know what food you ended up going with.

I spoke about it in the NZ thread, but basically:

meat-based POM meals; any meal mart amazing meals (provided bone-in meals comprise less than 2kgs); all types of snacks.

Transiting BKK in TG F is simply a dream.

No one does ground service better.

Better than getting picked up planeside by LH, driven to FCT, and driven from FCT to the next plane?
Because of the massage?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Nothing to do with massage.

You only get picked up planeside at a remote-stand at FRA. When that happens, they're comparable. LH has the tarmac drive, TG has the private living room + hour massage.

With TG, everything is just seamless, every time. Gate or remote-stand makes no difference.

Full escort, every single step of the way, buggy through airport, fast track through customs, etc etc. From plane to taxi is ~4 mins.

Unheard of. Really makes a difference.

Do you have to be coming in and going out in tg f to get the full service
