Fly in the next highest travel class with award miles
It’s often the little things in life that make a big difference: being allowed to board before the other passengers, more comfortable seating, a drink to welcome you, increased free baggage allowances and much more. Would you like to enjoy the comfort of Business Class on your Economy flights? With our upgrade award, this is possible within Europe from as little as 10,000 miles. You can book an upgrade on flights from Europe to North America from Business Class to First Class from 50,000 miles.
Book an upgrade award online or at the check-in counter
You can book an upgrade award conveniently online with Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, SWISS, Brussels Airlines, Eurowings Discover and LOT Polish Airlines.
