Much like Air France-KLM Flying Blue Promo Rewards, Lufthansa Miles & More offers a regular promotion with discounted reward redemptions for flights on Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, LOT Polish Airlines, and several other brands under the Lufthansa Group — though unfortunately not with Lufthansa or SWISS any longer.

Lufthansa has launched its newest Miles & More Mileage Bargains (“Meilenschnäppchen” is fun to say) for February, and this version is an unfortunate continuation of the decline of what used to be a great monthly promotion. Now, there’s not much to speak of for U.S. flyers.

Here’s what you need to know.

Promotion Details

This month’s list of Miles & More Mileage Bargains comprises hundreds of deals on flights around the world. However, there are just 3 deals available for flights between the U.S. and Europe. Yes, you read that right. There used to be hundreds every month, so this is a sad update.

However, savings are savings at the end of the day, and speaking objectively, there are good deals on the 1 route (which offers travel in 3 classes) available from the U.S. this month. To take advantage, you must book before February 28 and then fly during the dedicated travel period.

And before we go too far, understand that these flights can’t be canceled for a refund. Your travel plans should be firm before you confirm a reservation.

Business Class Deals

Fly with Brussels Airlines from Washington, D.C. (IAD) or New York (JFK) to Brussels (BRU) round-trip in business class for 61,000 miles per person. For this deal, travel between May 15 and June 30, 2026.

Premium Economy Deals

Economy Deals

Earning Lufthansa Miles

When considering the mileage cost alone, these flights offer some incredible bargains. Unfortunately, earning Lufthansa miles can be difficult, as Miles & More only has 1 transferable currency partnership (Rove Miles). Plus, the taxes and fees can be very expensive.

However, if you’re interested in taking advantage of these monthly promotions, you may want to consider signing up for the co-branded Lufthansa credit card, the Miles & More® World Elite Mastercard®.

Final Thoughts

This is a disappointing trend for Lufthansa’s monthly Mileage Bargains. For the last few months, we had hoped the abysmally low offerings from the U.S. were an anomaly, but apparently that wasn’t the case.

Still, if the available route suits your travel plans, there’s no denying it’s a good deal at just 25,000 miles for a round-trip flight from New York to Brussels. Paying 42,000 or 61,000 for round-trip flights in premium economy and business class, respectively, also presents good value.

However, taxes are high, and earning Lufthansa miles isn’t as simple as transferring your credit card points. Instead, you’ll want to grab the Lufthansa Miles & More card or take advantage of other methods to help build your balance. If you’ve got the required miles and can travel during the eligible window, these monthly offers present great value.

We just wish there were more of them — you know, like it used to be.
