Welcome to my rendition of a weekend trip to both Boston and Munich, over the February President’s Day weekend in 2018! The scaffolding for this trip was set in place by an earlier one: a weeklong trip to central Europe with some friends in December of the previous year. Instead of a typical roundtrip flight, my itinerary there started with a roundtrip flight from Munich to San Francisco and back in business class. I decided at the spur of the moment that the President’s Day weekend was as good a time as any for the return leg to Munich. I chose my layover to be in Boston for 2 reasons: so I could try United’s 757 “premium service” transcontinental business class, and also Lufthansa’s new A350. Because I wouldn’t have many vacation days banked by February, I decided to return on the Tuesday morning so I wouldn’t miss any days of work. My return was on a KLM ticket from SFO to Vienna and then back from Munich, with layovers in Amsterdam both ways. Since I chose to have a full day layover in Boston, I ended up with just 2 full days in Munich. This was actually shortened to a day and a half by the time my Lufthansa flight delay became apparent. I spent most of my day in Boston visiting friends and exploring downtown a bit, and my time in Munich was spent exploring outdoor parks and going to Neuschwenstein. Even though it was a brief trip, I had a wonderful time and would absolutely do a rushed trip like this again.
