¡Viva México! ... or: Get 57% back on your Airfare spend in First Class Award Ticket
Last minute flights are normal for business people but have also been the norm for travelers who like to enjoy the dynamic flexibility of their miles redeemed even further. Germany's Lufthansa falls into that category with some beautiful redemptions that it releases to its Star Alliance partners...
Today's example focuses on tomorrow's (Nov 15th, 2024) flight from Frankfurt to Mexico City. The German airline operates a 747-800 on this 12+ hours flight from its hub in Frankfurt to Mexico. As of this morning (EST), the airline released 3+ First Class seats 💺 for Award Redemption.
Cash Price
Let's start with the actual cost of the ticket. It retails for €9,117 which is approximately $9,620 - sold on Lufthnasa.com and other travel websites for almost the same price tag.
But you and I both know that if award redemption is available - then the airline will do its outmost best to have its partners and alliance member sell it too for Points / Miles + Taxes & Fees.
Stretch that Burn 🔥
