On occasion Lufthansa will launch a weekend sale where they allocate a specific number of tickets at great discounts for travel within Europe. The latest version of this sale starts this Friday and lasts only until Sunday. The sale covers departures from October to December while return trips need to take place between October 2, 2014 and March 31, 2015. Since the fare sale is not yet loaded into the system, I have no way of knowing if the Christmas Holiday period is blacked out from this fare sale but I assume that it will be.
The fares run anywhere from €99 to €139 but the majority that I’ve seen have been on the lower end of this range. As far as T&Cs are concerned, the minimum stay is 1 night for intra-Germany travel. If traveling between European countries, either a minimum of a 3 day stay is required OR a Friday night OR a Saturday night stay instead. These rules make it easy to take advantage of the fares for a great weekend away from home!
As I mentioned earlier, I don’t BELIEVE that these fares have been loaded into the system yet, but please start checking the LH website prior to the sale in the event that the fares are discounted ahead of the start date on Friday.

Lufthansa Cargo has launched a brand new magazine for its staff and they’ve asked me to share one of the pieces from their first issue. With each issue, LH Cargo will cover the “going’s on” within the company which will include specials that focus on their employees which I’ll share with you in the future.
For the inaugural issue, they decided to look to two of their Captains and asked them to complete sentences and add their comments that define their thoughts and attitudes when it comes to their ‘special ladies’. First, Captain Gottfried Knoll brags on his 777F followed by Captain Michael Schwinn who shares his passion for the MD-11F. It is obvious that these gentlemen do not see what they do for a living as just a ‘job’!
