Lufthansa’s current Business Class sale for travel between the US and Europe comes to an end on August 31.
This particular fare sale covers travel over the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend and makes it the perfect opportunity to take advantage if you’re thinking of visiting the Christmas Markets in Europe.
There are some good deals out there for this one. For example, fares between New York and Frankfurt are only $2100. While most East Coast gateways to Europe run between $2200 and $2800. Mid West and West Coast departures range from the mid $2500 to low $3000 area. The fares are booking into ‘P’ or ‘Business Basic’ fare category. For most frequent flyer accounts this means 100% earning rates.
This fare sale is available for departures between November 21 and 27, and return flights between November 26 and December 2. Tickets must be purchased 60 days prior to departure.
As with any LH fare sale, flights can be operated by other LH Group Airlines, Air Canada or United so be mindful when booking your flights. The miles you earn for a flight are determined by the airline you are flying, so you earning rates may vary. If in doubt, please ask and I can clarify where your best earning options would be.
