Lufthansa’s companion sale is back, with some incredible deals! As airfares have soared over the last few years I’m very surprised to see deals that are on a par with, or even better than what we got pre-covid.
The UK promotion page is here.
- Two passengers travelling together, return only
- Applies to premium economy, business and first class
- Operated by Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian or Brussels Airlines
- Book by September 3
- Travel by June 30, 2025
- No stopover is allowed
On the page there are participating routes with suggested prices. Here are what I think that stand out (prices are total for two passengers):
- (premium) Manchester – Hong Kong £1,219
- (business) London – Dubai £1,419
- (business) London – Johannesburg £2,079
- (business) London – Rio de Janeiro £2,199
- (business) London – Seoul £2,309
- (first) Manchester – Hong Kong £4,449
- (first) Manchester – Buenos Aires £3,989
Well, £700 to Dubai and £1,000 to South America from London, you can’t really get any better than that! The best deal however is arguably the first class ones, as paying £2,000 for Lufthansa’s highly-rated first class is a rare chance, and I’m looking to cross that off my list at some point.
Manchester – Hong Kong, Jan 24 – Feb 9, First
The search engine on the offer page displays a price calendar which is useful. I couldn’t get Google Flights to work though which is a shame. There are other bargains which are not listed – for example Birmingham – Dubai for two in business class is also around £1,500.
Besides the UK, similar offers are available for departures from Northern Europe. For example (prices are per person):
- Oslo – Beijing, business, £686
- Stockholm – Shanghai, first, £2,375
- Copenhagen – Nairobi, business, £723
Make sure you understand the fare buckets before you book: Lufthansa uses the special P bucket for business promo fares like this, which don’t credit to many of its partner programs.
