Pic: Lufthansa First Class tickets – Frankfurt to Singapore on A380 (Jul 2013)
Back in December 2012, I gave my parents two Lufthansa First Class round trip tickets to Singapore as their Christmas present. They had never been to Asia before, so I promised them I would join as their tour guide. “Two First Class tickets on the A380 to Singapore, that must have been expensive”, I hear you say. At the time of my booking, Lufthansa was charging €15210 for the two tickets. Instead, I used 315.000 Miles & More miles + €930 in taxes & fees. Now, I didn’t really book a ticket for my parents, I booked one for myself and my father as I wanted to use the Miles & More Senator Companion Award benefit. There were only two First Class award seats available on flight LH778 and LH779 in Dec 2012, so I booked my mother in Business Class with the idea that if Lufthansa did not release more First Class seats, I would take the dentist chair and have my parents in First. Fortunately, that wasn’t necessary. Six days before departure Lufthansa released more F Class seats our outbound flight LH778. It was an even closer call for the inbound flight, where I had to call the Singapore Miles & More service center less than 24 hours before departure to get ahold of my third First Class award seat on our return flight LH779. Unfortunately, I had to pay the full 210,000 miles + €465 in taxes & fees for that third First Class award, quite a steep number of award miles compared to other Star Alliance award redemption charts. Our total came to 525,000 miles + €1395 in taxes & fees for three First Class award tickets BRU-FRA-SIN-FRA-BRU with the segments between Brussels and Frankfurt in Lufthansa Business Class.

Flying First Class with Lufthansa means you can use their famous First Class Terminal in Frankfurt. This terminal is a dedicated building just for Lufthansa First Class passengers, which has its own security, à la carte dining, spacious bathrooms, sleeping rooms, cigar lounge, bar with exclusive liquors and champagnes, etc… All included in your First Class ticket, of course.

There is no need to walk to the gate when you’re flying from the Lufthansa First Class Terminal at Frankfurt Airport. You will be escoreted and driven onto the tarmac in an exclusive car right to your plane! We had the pleasure of enjoying a Mercedes S and Porsche Cayenne ride.
