This new series will bring me to Colombia, I found a super deal for 1'200€ from CDG with LH via FRA. The flights to and from CDG will be with AF HOP! including overnighting at the Sheraton CDG (overpriced but the best hotel in terms of location) and the flights to Bogotá with the mighty A340-300.
The SkyPriority line was the easiest way to skip the lines:
The friendly agent gave me my boarding passes and advised me not to loose any minute to go through security since they had a planning mistake and were totally understaffed. Lots of people already missed their flights that morning due to that.
Believe me, this is the first time I see such a queue, in 35+ years travelling from this airport:
OK there are a lots of flights to depart, but still …
Usually you should be able to see two set of stairs and an elevator here :)
Same mess upstairs:
After half an hour in the general queue, I was able to gain access to the fast track, that is only available once you climbed the stairs.
Duty free pit stop:
Given the people downstairs, upstairs it is more than quiet:

And went straight to the Sheraton, and was treated to a beautiful view over this A380:

Conclusion
The crowd at the EAP was really a mess, that morning it was just unbearable, planning mistakes can happen but people having to miss flights because of that isn't acceptable.
The rest of the trip was uneventful, HOP! did its job, so did the lounge and CDG. Only the long wait to get my suitcase wasn't great.
Thanks for reading, and as for last time, I'll publish everything in once in order for you to get the series straight ahead.
