As most of you know, Cities, Towns, and Villages throughout Europe show their Christmas spirit by converting their Plazas and Squares into places where you can enjoy local crafts, great food and mulled wine. It’s one of my favorite times of year to be in Europe.
The fare sale shows fares as LOW as $2300 between New York and Frankfurt. Other east coast departures range between $2300 and $2800 to a variety of German cities. West coast fares start in the low $3000 range. Fares to European cities within LH’s network start in the low $3000s and range up to about $3700.
In past sales, the prices were valid for travel throughout most of November and December, however in the case of this fare, the travel period is only a week long.
Departures must take place between November 21 and November 27, while return travel must take place between November 26 and December 2 and tickets must be purchased 60 days in advance of your departure. The sale ends on September 28.
Pay attention when booking your ticket. Lufthansa, Air Canada, United, SWISS, Austrian and Brussels are all eligible to operate your flights and the miles you earn can vary depending on which airline you fly.
If you get the low fare which is $3000 return, you get 100% of miles and not 150% just like every business tickets, so they maybe give you a better price, but they take from you the miles…
No one takes a Christmas vacation from November, the holiday starts in mid- December, so those tickets are only an advertising , few people will enjoy those prices, if any, we are still working at that time you lousy cheaters !!!
You couldn’t be more off base. Thanksgiving weekend is one of the busiest travel weekends of the year and the aircraft are full of people heading to Europe. Perhaps you should see for yourself or get a job with better vacation allocation.
