Miles & More
Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Miles & More brings the Lufthansa Group's airlines and a wider collection of travel and retail partners into a shared loyalty programme. Members earn miles through eligible flights and qualifying partner activity, then use them for award travel and other rewards. The programme has a strong European foundation, with airline partnerships extending the possibilities for journeys further afield. Redeemable miles sit alongside a separate status system based on Points, Qualifying Points and, for the highest tier, HON Circle Points. Frequent Traveller, Senator and HON Circle membership offer different levels of recognition. This separation allows members to consider reward travel and status as related but distinct goals, rather than assuming that every way of collecting miles contributes equally to both. Benefits can include priority check-in, lounge access and baggage allowances, depending on status, airline and fare. Hotels, car hire and the Worldshop retail offering provide further ways to interact with the programme. Its value is most apparent when those options align with regular travel patterns. Before redeeming, members can compare the miles required, additional cash charges and available alternatives, keeping the practical purpose of a journey at the centre of the decision.
