Weeeeeell......... Due the change of my traveling plan (delayed for 1 week), I called my pal arnolds and informed him that we'll be on the same flight picking on 10/20
Previously, we were going to fly out of Koln on returning flight and ride the highspeed ICE train from Hbf Koln to FRA

for about $1450 thru LH 2 for 1 deal OTD everything included. Which is about $50 cheapest from the best rate I can find on the net

. And I am all jazzed about taking the ICE highspeed train to FRA airport to catch my returning flight.
However!!! My pal arnolds informed me

that if I re-route the returning flight from either FRA or MUC, and make the connection in London Heathrow, via Flight: LH 9342 operated by: UNITED AIRLINES, I can save anothe $400 bucks making the whole trip $just under $1k from westcoast

I didn't believe him so I called LH 2 for 1 and ask them to price out returning flight thru connection LH 9342.
Bingo!!! 
Thanks to homeboy arnolds, I am now paying $970 for 2 for the whole trip (IN OKTOBER, this price is unreal!!)

Thnx Brutha!! I'll buy you a bier on our flight to MUC
ICE is N'ICE

but for $400 back in my pocket, thnx, but no D'ICE
beewang
