Lufthansa First Class Awards Restricted to Miles & More (insideflyer.com)

Lufthansa restricted First Class award seats to its Miles & More program in early June 2026, removing them from partner networks. Transatlantic one-way tickets cost 165,700 miles plus $1,579 in surcharges, while a 225,000-mile bundle sells for $4,340. The change grants access to Allegris cabins on Airbus A350s but requires significant upfront mileage purchases.
