Just to clarify the thread title: it's not just Lufthansa, it's the Lufthansa Group. That includes Lufthansa, Austrian, Brussels and Swiss. >:(

This is ridiculous. I'm breaking my head to understand the explanation they are giving. #LufthansaUnfriendly

I have a feeling that if they will not be stopped from doing this, this will be the beginning of the end of TAs. Now lets see if Jeffy is going to copy this brilliant idea....

It's already been attempted by Northwest in 2004, AA in 2007, and Delta in 2010. Got shot down every time, B"H. Hopefully now too...
