Updated February 3, 2026
If you’ve ever dreamed of flying Lufthansa First Class — arguably one of the most elegant first class experiences in the world — there’s a limited-time opportunity to make it happen for a fraction of the usual cost.
Lufthansa’s Bundle&Go promotion is running through February 28, 2026, offering up to a 50% bonus when you buy Miles & More miles. At the best tier, you’re looking at purchasing miles for just 1.1 cents each — making a $15,000+ first class flight achievable for around $1,800 in miles alone.
Let’s break down exactly how this deal works and whether it makes sense for you.
The Bundle&Go Offer Explained
Miles & More’s Bundle&Go packages let you purchase miles alongside some ancillary perks (car rental bonuses, Priority Pass discounts, etc.). The miles are the real value here.
Current Pricing Tiers (with 50% bonus):
| Package | Miles Received | Cost | Cost per Mile |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 4,500 miles | €90 | 2.0 cpm |
| Small | 15,000 miles | €250 | 1.67 cpm |
| Medium | 75,000 miles | €1,000 | 1.33 cpm |
| Large | 150,000 miles | €1,650 | 1.10 cpm |
Important: This promotion is targeted. Some members receive a 50% bonus, others get 30%, and some get nothing. Log into your Miles & More account to see your personalized offer.
At 1.10 Euro cents per mile (~1.17 USD cents), the Large bundle is an exceptional value for anyone eyeing Lufthansa premium cabin redemptions.
Promotion Details:
- Expires: February 28, 2026
- Annual limit: 250,000 miles (400,000 with bonus)
- Miles delivery: Within 5 business days (often instant)
- Mile expiration: 36 months (waived for status holders or Miles & More credit card holders)
Why Lufthansa First Class is Worth It
Lufthansa First Class offers private suites, gourmet dining, and exceptional service.
Lufthansa First Class isn’t just a seat — it’s an experience:
- Private suites with closing doors on A380s and 747-8s
- The First Class Terminal in Frankfurt — your own private terminal with dedicated security, spa, fine dining, and a chauffeur-driven Porsche to your plane
- Gourmet caviar service, exceptional wines, and restaurant-quality meals
- Pajamas, amenity kits, and one of the most attentive crews in the sky
Routes featuring Lufthansa First Class depart from Frankfurt (FRA) and Munich (MUC) to destinations including:
- New York (JFK, EWR)
- Los Angeles (LAX)
- San Francisco (SFO)
- Chicago (ORD)
- Miami (MIA)
- Boston (BOS)
- Delhi (DEL)
- Singapore (SIN)
- São Paulo (GRU)
- Buenos Aires (EZE)
The New Allegris Experience
Lufthansa is rolling out their new Allegris cabin on select routes from Munich, featuring a completely redesigned First and Business Class product. Current Allegris routes include:
- Munich → Chicago (ORD)
- Munich → New York (JFK)
- Munich → San Francisco (SFO)
- Munich → San Diego (SAN)
If you can snag a seat on an Allegris-equipped aircraft, even better!
The Math: How Cheap Can You Fly First Class?
Here’s where it gets exciting. Let’s calculate the real cost of Lufthansa First Class using this promotion:
Award Pricing (Miles & More):
- First Class US ↔ Europe: 91,000 miles one-way
- Fuel surcharges: ~$400-450 one-way (yes, they’re steep)
Your Actual Cost:
Using the Large bundle at 1.10 cpm:
| Component | Cost |
|---|---|
| 91,000 miles @ 1.10 cpm | ~€1,000 ($1,080) |
| Fuel surcharges | ~$425 |
| Total | ~$1,505 |
Compare that to a cash first class ticket costing $12,000-18,000, and you’re looking at an 85-90% discount.
Even accounting for the surcharges (which hurt, admittedly), you’re still getting one of the world’s best first class products for the price of a decent business class cash fare.
Why Miles & More Has a Huge Advantage
Here’s the insider trick that makes this valuable:
Lufthansa releases First Class award space to its own members up to 360 days in advance.
For partner programs like United MileagePlus, Aeroplan, or ANA Mileage Club, Lufthansa First Class typically only becomes available 14 days before departure — and even then, availability is sparse.
By booking directly with Miles & More miles, you get first dibs on the best seats on the best dates. This is how savvy travelers consistently lock down Lufthansa First Class while others scramble for last-minute scraps.
Should You Buy? A Decision Framework
✅ BUY if:
- You received the 50% bonus offer (1.10-1.17 cpm)
- You have a specific redemption in mind (Lufthansa F, SWISS, or Star Alliance)
- You’re comfortable with the ~$400-500 surcharges on premium cabins
- You’re booking for a special occasion (honeymoon, anniversary, bucket list trip)
❌ SKIP if:
- You only received the 30% bonus or no bonus (wait for a better offer)
- You’re not sure when/if you’ll use the miles
- You prefer programs without surcharges (Aeroplan, ANA, United)
- Miles & More’s 36-month expiration concerns you
🤔 Consider alternatives if:
- You can earn Aeroplan points (no surcharges, only 90K first class US-Europe)
- You prefer United MileagePlus (145K first class, but no surcharges)
- You have flexible transfer currencies (Chase, Amex, Capital One)
How to Book Lufthansa First Class
Step 1: Check your Bundle&Go offer
Log into miles-and-more.com and navigate to the Bundle&Go section. Your personalized offer will be displayed.
Step 2: Purchase miles
If you received a 50% bonus, grab the Large bundle (150,000 miles for €1,650). This gives you enough for a one-way First Class ticket with miles to spare.
Step 3: Search for award space
Use the Miles & More website to search for First Class availability. Pro tip: Search round-trip first — Miles & More often shows better availability for round-trips, and their pricing offers round-trip discounts.
Step 4: Book immediately
When you find availability, book it. Lufthansa First Class space is extremely limited and highly sought-after.
Transfer Partners: A Limited Menu
Unlike Chase Ultimate Rewards or Amex Membership Rewards, Miles & More has very few transfer partners:
- Marriott Bonvoy (3:1 ratio — not great)
- Barclays Lufthansa Credit Card (U.S. only, earns Miles & More directly)
This is exactly why the Bundle&Go promotion matters — it’s one of the few ways to acquire Miles & More miles at reasonable rates without flying constantly.
The Bottom Line
The Miles & More Bundle&Go 50% bonus is one of the best opportunities in 2026 to fly Lufthansa First Class affordably. At 1.10-1.17 cents per mile, you’re looking at $1,500-1,800 all-in for a first class experience that would cost $15,000+ in cash.
But only if you received the 50% bonus offer. If you got 30% or nothing, wait for the next promotion cycle — Miles & More typically runs these several times per year.
If you’ve dreamed of sipping champagne in Lufthansa’s famous First Class Terminal before being whisked to your plane in a Porsche Cayenne… this might be your moment.
