The words, "Your connecting flight boarding pass will be waiting for you in Munich." Is a tricky statement that should have been a small window into the German bureaucracy as Alexis would later explain to me. What that lovely airline attendant actually meant is that we would arrive to Munich dazed and confused be told to go through Passport control and wait for a suitcase that would never come because obv...
