Isn't this a nice bit of irony...
I planned to take this long, multi-leg journey with only carry-on luggage. I sacrificed some casual clothes and definitely some shoes in order to do so.
But this morning when checking in at Munich, I decided to check my bag. We're a group of 7, everyone else had checked bags, and we were on a smallish plane, an ARJ. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
Not so much.
Everyone else has received their bags. The carousel has stopped. There's no one at the Swiss luggage desk. Eventually, with help from Ralf, I find the Swiss Lost and Found desk... itself ironically hard to find. Seems my bag was checked through to Frankfurt. I guess our itinerary shows tomorrow's flight too. So even though I only got one boarding pass, the Lufthansa agent figured my bag was better off going on ahead without me.
They're looking for it right now. But the rest of the party has cleared customs and is waiting for me.
20 minutes they say.
I'm not sure if this is German or Swiss efficiency.
