Lufthansa Miles & More released their latest set of discounted mileage awards “Meilenschnaeppchen” back in April and they include flights out of Montreal on Lufthansa and Toronto on Austrian.
You can redeem Miles & More miles for economy class tickets between Montreal and 50+ cities in Europe for only 30,000 miles round trip as well as Toronto – Austria for the same amount! That’s half off the normal price. There are also business class offers for Toronto-Austria on Austrian for
only 55,000 miles instead of the regular 105,000 miles. Granted all these tickets will also have fuel surcharges but this is still a pretty good deal when you look at it as a whole in terms of miles+cash outlay.
Simply book your tickets by May 15 for travel until June 15th. Full details can be found here
If you don’t have enough miles you can convert points from the Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express (C$1 = 1 Miles & More Mile) however with only 10 days left to book the points may not transfer time. If you do try, remember your best bet is to transfer in 20,000 Starpoints increments as you’ll get a 5,000 mile bonus meaning you’ll get 25,000 Miles & More miles.
