The Battle of Moscow's airports: Lufthansa moves again to the Airport?

14. November 2011

14.11.2011: Lange war der Flughafen Sheremetyevo die Nummer Eins in Moskau – dann wurde Domodedovo modernisiert. Consequence: Die deutsche Lufthansa siedelte 2008 nach Domodedovo um. Doch nun scheint Vnukovo ins Rampenlicht der Lufthansa zu geraten: Während bisher German Wings den bislang kleinsten der drei Flughäfen ansteuerte, soll es nun auch Flüge der Lufthansa nach Vnukovo geben, wie unter anderem der Standard aus Österreich berichtet. Der Verdacht liegt nahe, dass irgendwann ein vollständiger Umzug der Lufthansa (und damit auch anderer Linien) nach Vnukovo erfolgen wird. read more »

Tips for trips in Bavaria: Tegernsee with a stop in Bräustüberl

18. September 2011

18.9.2011: Gestern ging es bei bestem Wetter per Bahn von München aus zum Tegernsee. Die Fahrt dauert etwa eine Stunde bis zum Endbahnhof in Tegernsee. Wer mit mehreren Personen fährt, für den lohnt sich eine Gruppenkarte. Nach ein paar Minuten ist man unten am See – und wer sich stärken will, dem empfehle ich einen Besuch im Bräustüberl Tegernsee. Gutes Essen zu moderaten Preisen und netter Bedienung – wenn dann noch das Wetter so passt wie gestern, lohnen sich auch Spaziergänge am See entlang oder auch eine Bootsfahrt… By the way: Gestern gab es für alle, die per Bahn anreisten und die Karte vorzeigten, ein Bier kostenlos…
