- Lufthansa Miles & More, ORD-FRA one-way, First (no status, June 2026)Dynamic pricing on Lufthansa Group flights. Another data point: BOS to Europe 165,700 miles + $1,579 (InsideFlyer, Oct 2026). None of the seven US banks in our transfer table transfers to Miles & More. Allegris First is bookable by Miles & More members, but availability is thin.
- Air Canada Aeroplan, US East Coast-Europe one-way, Lufthansa FirstNot currently bookable: Lufthansa has released no First award seats to any partner since 2026-06-01 (OMAAT, Jul 2026; still the case per InsideFlyer, 2026-10-26). The Aeroplan chart price would be 90,000 (0-4,000 mi band, our award chart); TPG (Dec 2025) quoted 90,000-100,000. Partners never had access to Allegris First.
- Avianca LifeMiles, US-Europe one-way, Lufthansa FirstSame partner block since 2026-06-01. our award chart lists LH/LX First at ~130,000 after April 2026 repricing.
Finding a seat: Lufthansa historically released First to partners only 15 days out or less (and within about 3 days since early 2024); since 2026-06-01 it has released none to partners. Live and Let's Fly also reported restricted partner Business space in July 2026. Lufthansa has not announced whether the change is permanent. Miles & More members can see some First space, at dynamic prices with high surcharges.

Does flying first class change the climate cost?
The footprint is the seat, not the currency. A first-class seat takes more of the aircraft per person than economy. Paying with points emits the same as paying cash for that same seat.
Is this up to date?
Researched 2026-11-01. Routes, products and award prices change. Confirm the seat on the program's site before you transfer points.
