Late last night I received a message from a reader who asked if I could help him find a good home for 2 eVouchers that are expiring at the end of this year. Unfortunately (or fortunately for you?) he won’t be able to use the vouchers for his own travels, but has generously offered them up to a deserving traveller…..
After thinking on it for a few hours I think I’ve come up with the perfect way to get these vouchers into the hands of someone who can use them.
For the next 3 days, until midnight December 24, anyone who leaves their travel plans in the comment section of this post will have a chance to get the vouchers. Once the deadline passes, the person (grantor) donating these vouchers will review all entries and he will pick the one that he feels is the best one. One winner will receive both vouchers.
Keep in mind, your itinerary must already be booked. In order to get the vouchers, your PNR or Locator code must be used when the vouchers are redeemed by the grantor.
Even though the vouchers expire on December 31, they can be applied to bookings in the future. You do not need to travel by the end of this month.
Keep in mind that not every fare class is eligible for upgrade via voucher. It is your responsibility to know if your fares are upgradeable! The winner will not be awarded the vouchers if the fares in their itinerary are not eligible.
To learn about the various options, including fare classes and using the vouchers on Star Alliance partners, please visit the FlyerTalk thread that specifically addresses how to use the vouchers. Pay special attention to the ‘Wiki’ at the top of that thread. If you have any specific ‘what-if’ questions, feel free to post them in that thread.
You can also refer to the Miles & More ‘Terms and Conditions’ for additional rules governing the use of Vouchers. Please do not leave questions in the comment area as to how to use the vouchers. There’s no guarantee that I’ll be able to answer the question in a timely manner.
The winner will be contacted by email by December 27. Please make sure to leave your email address in the appropriate field when entering your comments.
LufthansaFlyer assumes no responsibility or liability as to the use of the vouchers.
UPDATE: The vouchers have to ‘clear’ before expiring on December 31. Should the winner’s booking not ‘clear’ the upgrade at the time the upgrade is requested, another winner may be selected if the Grantor choses to do so.
Hi and Happy Holidays to all!
I’m flying over the Pond with Swiss next February – quite looking forward to those holidays in the Caribbean!
Getting worried though… Reading through this, it looks like a Coup is on its way: using their magic e-vouchers, a Senator might kick me out of my Throne (4A), throwing me through the Curtain for the Balik torture and the Grand Siecle brainwashing… Even before this enhancement (likely due to popular demand of the flyers regime), I might have to face the Dragons upstairs at the ZRH dungeon and being dashed into the back of a black car heading to the E camp. So scarry!
What a nice idea to allocate eVouchers! I will be flying on January 2nd from Zurich to Sao Paulo (GRU). This is probably LX’s longest flight and would put the eVoucher at a very good use. It would also allow to start the year somewhat relaxed after a nice flight and hit the ground running back in the office 🙂
I will be flying SWISS LX189 in P class on Dec 31 to celebrate New Year’s Eve with my ex-flatmates in Zurich Switzerland. 2015 was a remarkable year for myself – finished my 15-year schooling life after a Master’s degree and started my first job; first hospital stay in July due to injuries on my right foot from sports and my amazing flatmates took good care of me, they taught me an important lesson of being generous to others; got robbed the first time in my life while traveling through South America and although nothing serious happened, it taught me to take precautions whenever in foreign land. That’s why I want to use this opportunity to close this amazing milestone year of many firsts in my life in style – in SWISS First, a first time in First Class, ever, for myself. If I will be so lucky to be the receiver of this great generosity, I will only need one voucher for a one-way upgrade though so that another lucky kid can also have the chance to be in the front of the plane!

Hi, I have a trip booked in March from Seattle to London returning Athens to Seattle. I would really appreciate the vouchers because I have a recent Lisfranc fracture which makes traveling challenging at times. It would be nice to be able to extend my leg on a flat seat. This is such a nice gesture and good luck to everyone. Merry Christmas.
I am flying to Boston in April to visit PAX, the biggest gaming expo, for the first time. I am booked in economy outbound and business inbound. Both classes are upgradable, and I would love to get upgrade on one of the segments.
Happy Holidays!
Hey there
Me and my best friend is currently having the experience of our life exploring Brazil. We bumped into each other sometime in August, in a city in northeast brazil called Teresina, where we both turned out to be exchange students.
Since then, our friendship has developed, and when the time came to get our tickets home, we both fought a long fight with our exchange-organizations to get on the same flight home (LH 507 7/7-2016). We have now won this flight, and are very happy about how things turned out – we are both booked in economy class, but have an innerly wish about being able to travel Premium economy, so we can travel home in a stylish manner, and enjoy our last hours together – as well as being able to meet our families well rested after a long 12 hour flight – after all its been a year since we saw them last time.
We really hope that your love falls on two young guys, experiencing the world 🙂
Best regards
Peter and Tim
Is it just travel plans for the upcoming trip to which the vouchers could be applied? I’m flying swissair from Singapore to Geneva for my first skiing trip ever! It’ll be a week in val thorens with nothing but snow and my friends:)
In 2016 I’ve made plans to visit Bali in April, Japan in September and Iceland to catch the elusive Aurora in winter!
Please remove me from the contest.. I checked again and my booking class isn’t eligible 🙁
I will be flying from Birmingham to Atlanta via Frankfurt to attend an academic conference in March. Granted, this is not very exciting stuff, but as a PhD student without a lot of money to spend on travel and who will be flying to one (if not the) most important conference in his area of studies, it would be great to have the possibility to use the vouchers to upgrade my travel and arrive well rested, ready to present my paper 🙂
Hello, I could provide this 2eVouchers a really good and warm home.
I am flying in February on Swiss Booking Class P from EWR to ZRH to suprise my sister when she is turning 30! I would love to use the vouchers to upgrade one way.
If I won the vouchers, I’d take my friend on a trip to Europe and let her pick exactly where she’d like to visit. She’s be down in the dumps lately. She does so much for everyone, especially her friends, and I feel like she never gets that kind of treatment in return. This would be my chance to give back to her!
Thanks for this offer and happy holidays to all!
I would like to win the vouchers because I flight to europe in 3 weeks after holidays and would like to know how is to travel in to a higher class than economy, my back suffers a lot, then I would like to have some presents from Mexico to Germany for some friends and in economy due to weight restrictions can’t take them and also if I could get them I can bring a bottle of tequila for the grantor due to his(her) generosity.
