Mastering Lufthansa Allegris First Class Booking

So, here’s the deal—I’m on a quest, and I’m frankly stumped. I’m trying to tap into collective intelligence here because, let’s face it, perhaps I’ve missed something crucial…

I’m hoping to fly Lufthansa Allegris first class!

Here’s the scoop: Lufthansa just rolled out its swanky new Allegris first class, and it’s only available on the select Airbus A350-900 fleet out of Munich. Yes, I’ve already had a tango with their Allegris business class, but the real feather in my cap would be trying out their A350 first class.

As someone perpetually on the pulse of premium cabins, I consider it my business—nay, my duty—to periodically test first-class experiences and stay current. Lufthansa’s A350 first class is no ordinary beast, with its 1-1-1 layout and the talk of the center suite squeezing in two people, albeit cosily.

To keep my rankings of the world’s best glitzy first class cabins fresh, I need to update Lufthansa’s standing. Usually, I’m a wizard with miles and points, but, oh boy, Lufthansa’s Allegris first class is a tough nut. No award redemptions, and upgrading seems more of an ordeal than a bargain.

Which leaves me at the horrifying realization that—yikes—shelling out cash for a first-class ticket is my only option.

What’s the best Lufthansa Allegris first class fare?

Hunting for the best airfare can feel like a rollercoaster ride, hinging greatly on your departure point. For instance, a one-way adventure from Chicago to Munich in Allegris first class would set me back by $15,508. Let’s just say, my wallet winced at that one. 😉

The best deal I’ve stumbled upon so far is a one-way from Sofia to Bangalore via Munich for $4,820, in Allegris first class. It’s a tad easier on the bank account, but still hits quite high.

The roundtrip fare in first class on the same route comes in at $6,450. Essentially, you’re paying a lot less for the return flight. There’s often a tactic where you fly one way in first class and the other in economy, mingling half of the roundtrip fare each way. But no guarantee it’s doable here.

I’m on a mission to uncover an even more irresistible fare. I mean, is there a golden ticket I’m missing? A straightforward ticket booking would be peachy keen, allowing me to tap into the magical realm of using credit card points through Amex or Chase for an indirect award booking. But, hey, I’m not ruling out a trickier route.

Honestly, I’m rearing to jump on a Lufthansa Allegris first class flight any day now, so expect a detailed review soon if fortune smiles my way!

Bottom line

Here’s the crux of the matter: I’m super eager to try Lufthansa’s new Allegris first class offering, but snagging a good deal is proving elusive. With mileage redemptions off the table and the few routes available, my options are thin. If anyone out there has some juicy fare tips, I’m all ears… really. And while we’re at it, perhaps a quick hop to the Val Seny ski resort might be an option if I can’t nail this down. Let’s see what happens!
