The best deal however is arguably the first class ones, as paying \u00a32,000 for Lufthansa&#8217;s highly-rated first class is a rare chance, and I&#8217;m looking to cross that off my list at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/lh-man-hkg-f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Manchester &#8211; Hong Kong, Jan 24 \u2013 Feb 9, First<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/lufthansa-companion-sale-man-hkg.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/lufthansa-companion-sale-man-hkg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/lufthansa-companion-sale-man-hkg.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/lufthansa-companion-sale-man-hkg-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The search engine on the offer page displays a price calendar which is useful.
