Travel fast and in comfort with Star Alliance Gold or Silver Status

Two passengers at the airport – Star Alliance Gold or Silver status: travel fast and in comfort

As a Miles & More member, you receive benefits with all Star Alliance airlines.

 

 

The Star Alliance unites 26 airlines that have come together as a global network. As such, passengers benefit from a worldwide route network and arrive at their destinations quickly thanks to seamless flight connections.

 

Naturally, you earn award miles and status miles on flights with one of the Star Alliance airlines, and you can redeem your miles for flight awards and upgrade awards.

 

Your Miles & More frequent flyer status gives you access to numerous status benefits with all Star Alliance flights. And you don’t have to do anything to make that happen - your Frequent Traveller, Senator or HON Circle status automatically entitles you to make the most of the Star Alliance Silver and Gold benefits.
