The Watch app automatically installs when you sync your watch with your iTunes as long as you already have the Lufthansa App installed on either your iPhone or iPad.

Once installed, the app provides a dynamic interface that provides travelers with the right information at the right time.    For example, your watch will begin to remind you of your flight up to a day in advance.  Additionally the Watch app provides real time updates to your flight schedule and even keeps track of how long before your flight begins boarding.

The app also provides gate and flight status information as well as your seat assignment.  Another great feature is that your Boarding Pass will available on your watch so you can simply scan your watch at the gate.

For now, this functionality is ONLY available to Miles & More members.   You also have to be logged into your account in order for the App to function as designed on the watch.  It will also work if you have already checked in for your flight.

The App will be expanded to work with non Miles & More members in a future update.
