Last spring, I finally decided to splurge and fly Lufthansa First Class from New York to Frankfurt — something that had been on my bucket list for years. Honestly, figuring out how to book it was more confusing than I expected. I tried using miles at first through my United MileagePlus account, but the availability was super limited unless you booked within two weeks of departure. Eventually, I mixed miles and cash, which worked perfectly.
Here’s what really helped: I called Lufthansa’s dedicated line at (877)-764-3622, and their rep walked me through every option — from full cash fares to upgrade options using points. The call only took about 15 minutes, and they even helped me select the exact seat in the First Class cabin. Totally worth it.
The best part? When I later had to adjust my return date, I just called 877-764-3622 again, and they handled the change instantly without me waiting on hold for hours. If you’re planning to book or modify a Lufthansa First Class ticket — whether with cash, miles, or points — calling that number directly is hands down the fastest and easiest way.
