For those of you who do not follow the First Class Terminal on their Twitter channel, you’re missing an opportunity to win a duck with their weekly contest.
The contest is quite simple……Lufthansa FCT asks a question related to the Terminal and the best answer wins. The questions are quite unique. They typically have something to do with the consumption of ingredients or other little known factoids. For example, this week’s question asks ‘How Many Kilometers Of Spaghetti were served at the Terminal last year?’. The answer that comes closest wins a duck that will be delivered to your home.
I’ll post something each week to remind you to enter. You can also follow Lufthansa First Class Terminal on Twitter to stay informed with what is happening inside this wonderful building!
Here’s the link to this week’s question:

As has become tradition for Lufthansa to honor major sporting events around the world, LH has announced the availability of a special edition Olympic duck that will be available during the games in February. For these games, the duck will take to the slopes as a downhill skier.
Passengers visiting the First Class Terminal and Lounges in Frankfurt can pick up this duck while supplies last……
The Olympic Duck is set to hit the slopes during the Olympic Games…..

United has launched a miles sale promo for MileagePlus members that will award you with up to 75% more miles when you purchase miles for your account.
The promo is tiered so the more miles you purchase the better the bonus becomes. In addition to the bonus, you’ll get 1 or 2 entries into a contest that will award its winner 1,000,000 miles which is plenty for a few First Class roundtrips on Lufthansa!
The brackets break down as follows:
If you buy between 5,000 and 14,000 miles, you’ll get a 25% miles bonus and 1 entry into the sweepstakes.
If you buy between 15,000 and 29,000 miles you’ll get a 50% miles bonus and 1 entry into the sweepstakes.
If you buy between 30,000 and 85,000 miles you’ll earn a 75% miles bonus and 2 entries into the sweepstakes.
In doing the math you’ll pay about 2.8 cents per mile (CPM) if you buy between 5,000 and 14,000 miles (plus 25% bonus). Buying between 15,000 and 29,000 miles (plus 50% bonus) will give you a CPM of 2.3 cents. Buying over 30,000 miles (plus 50% bonus) will net you a cost of 2 cents per mile.
The promo is set to expire on March 9, 2018. You can buy 150,000 miles per year per Mileage Plus account, and the miles you buy do not count towards status attainment.
