LUFTHANSA Group BUSINESS CLASS TO USA EX-ZRH, VIE, or FCO from $1400 R/T!!!

LUFTHANSA Group BUSINESS CLASS TO USA EX-ZRH, VIE, or FCO from $1400 R/T!!!

Lufthansa Group Airlines has launched a group wide Business Class fare sale for travel to the USA from Zurich, Vienna, and Rome.

Fares are amazing.    You can fly to the East Coast for only $1600.   The same goes for most midwest destinations as well.    Surprisingly, you can fly from Vienna or Rome to the West Coast for only $1400!!!

The fare is valid for travel on all LH Group airlines (yes, including Brussels), as well as on United and Air Canada.    The fare seems to cover travel dates until year end.   I did notice however there are a few pockets where the fares are valid for travel on Thursdays-Sundays, mostly on Vienna flights to the East Coast.

The fares book into deep discount ‘P’ class and require either a 6 night stay, or just a Saturday night stay, making this a very attractive deal.  I’m not sure when the sale will end, it may be a very temporary  24 hour ‘Flash’ offer.
