A heads up
LH FA’s have announced a strike for Tuesday 4, 2012.
“Details on the scope of the strikes (affected airports and expected duration) will be published by the union at very short notice only.”

A quick unauthorized answer (I am the unauthorized spokesperson answering the question) - ZED fares are revenue tickets find out or look up the revenue passenger carriage rules.
Use these for the guidelines. When checking in introduce yourself as a fellow industry worker and ask for any courtesies that can be extend - also if you have an affinity credit card i.e. American Express
see if that does the trick - but don't just check in and pay the pauper lambly - the agent maybe the cause celebre to help you avoid the lining of the CEO's pockets especially at a time of a labor dispute !

So what part of Non Revenue do you not understand even if it is a ZED fare - a partial discounted revenue ticket - shouldn't the baggage fee also be partially discounted ???

Whoops see this thread last posted in 2012 - but still should be an interesting read - darn baggage fees and other comments withheld - and I am not interested in deleting my diatribe !

Perhaps a cup of tea, Mr. Anderson.

As far as I know, most ZED agreements allow 1 free checked bag.

I think 1 checked bag is built into the fare structure, just like pricing. And I believe that at many airlines (including LH) if the policy for revenue pax is more generous, that applies.

Not sure how accurate this web site is but it gives information on ZED travel for each airline. Deutsche Lufthansa AG | Find flight listing option at FlyZED | ID Travel | Airline employees
