Lufthansa's Miles&More Bundle&Go promotion ends tonight at 11:59pm CET, delivering an effective **1.17¢ per mile** on purchased miles with the 50% bonus. That's the kind of math that makes business class redemptions to Europe or Asia suddenly look like a steal—provided you lock them in before the fuel surcharge hammer falls any harder.
The deal runs from March 1 through March 31, 2026. Buy one of the four Bundle&Go packages (XS through L) and get 50% more miles on top. The large bundle, for example, gets you 150,000 miles for about $2,090, which shakes out to roughly that 1.17¢ effective rate after the bonus hits your account within five business days.
Why rush? Lufthansa Group has been jacking up its "international surcharge" on award tickets. Business class round-trips to North America now routinely carry €1,100–€1,300 in co-pays on Lufthansa, SWISS, or Austrian metal. Frankfurt–New York sits at €1,148 for the surcharge alone in business, up €200 from recent levels. Routes to Asia aren't spared either.
The Sweet Spot Redemptions
Miles&More's chart still offers decent fixed pricing on partner awards. From the US, business class to Europe runs 60,000 miles one-way. To Southeast Asia or the Far East, it's 170,000 miles one-way. That's not the cheapest in Star Alliance—Turkish Miles&Smiles often beats it on pure mileage—but the availability and routing options through the Lufthansa Group can make it worthwhile when United or Air Canada come up dry.
Compare that to dynamic pricing on Lufthansa's own flights, where awards can spike well above chart levels during peak demand. The purchased miles work across the entire program, including Star Alliance partners, giving you flexibility before everything gets repriced higher.
The timing is particularly delicious. These surcharges have climbed steadily since last year, with another noticeable bump hitting in recent months. Booking now lets you secure the ticket with today's lower cash component. Wait until April and that €1,300 co-pay could feel even more like a tax on good decision-making.
Why This Beats Most Alternatives
At 1.17¢ per mile, these are cheaper than most transfer partners for targeted redemptions. You're not overpaying for miles you'll never use, especially if you have a trip to Frankfurt, Munich, Zurich, or an Asian gateway already in mind. Miles expire after three years with no extension tricks, so have a plan—but three years is plenty of time for most optimizers.
Insider note: the program isn't perfect. Dynamic pricing on LH metal means you might still pay peak rates, and surcharges remain unavoidable on group-operated flights. Yet for partner redemptions or when availability aligns, this is one of the better bulk purchase deals we've seen lately. Far better than watching your premium card points sit idle while fuel prices dictate your vacation budget.
Other Star Alliance programs like United or Aeroplan often require more miles or deliver higher surcharges on the same routes. Turkish remains the mileage champion for pure efficiency, but its availability and routing restrictions don't always match Miles&More's network strength in Europe and Asia.
Buy what you can reasonably use before the end of the promotion. The large bundle maximizes the discount, but don't exceed your annual cap or redemption horizon just to chase the bonus.
Action item: Log into your Miles&More account today, grab at least the medium or large Bundle&Go before midnight CET, and start searching partner awards for summer or fall travel. Those lower surcharges won't be around forever.
