Lufthansa First bookable with united miles on new routes
« on: November 07, 2013, 05:13:01 PM »
Lufthansa will be operating Munich-mexico city (4/3/14) and Munich-Toronto  (6/5/14)
the beauty is they opened up tons of space in first class (they currently only do this 15 days prior currently to partners)
the space is wide open. There is also tons of business class.
even if you dont live near these cities its worth using the miles now at the discounted rate and booking a short haul avios ticket.
HT to one mile at a time

Would be more exciting if it was FRA.

Given the impending deval, I'm surprised people aren't jumping on this.

Been a while since I looked into the rules, are you sure that gets FCT access?

Now I just need to add on YYZ - NYC and hope the FRA-NYC opens and UA doesn't charge more miles to change in addition to a change fee.

Got any clarification on that yet?

It seems that anything besides a date change is likely to trigger a reprice.
