Hello all!
I was informed that this was the place to come to and ask for help determining what is available on the following. I'm currently in economy and can bid to premium economy or business class.
Any suggestion for minimum bid for either PE or BC? I must warn you, I have very little idea what most of you are talking about with all these numbers and letters as it all sounds like sanskrit to me most of the time, but I'm trying to learn so I appreciate your patience.

Can anyone look up the loads for this RT?
23FEB LAX-MUC LH 453
01MAR MUC-LAX LH 452
I want to book an 016 UA ticket stick in Y so I can get 11x RDM (with an LH flight # so I can apply GPUs to get to C)
If they aren't likely to clear, I can't stand the thought of a TATL in Y. Spolied
Thanks!

Thank you so much for the info.
I actually made a mistake and meant LH 458 from MUC to SFO for August 21 or August 22. Would you mind checking those two days?
I am sure that LH 458 is a very popular flight...

In your humble opinion, what are your feelings about a GPU clearing for these flights? I understand that j9 for example means that there are still more than 9 seats for sale. Is there a particular booking class that I need to focus on and use as a reference? Again, thank you for all the inputs...
Basically I would book an H or Q fare and then try to upgrade to Business Class using a GPU

Correct. Usually if there is no "I" available then you get put on the upgrade waitlist. I was just wondering if the J9 or D9 are good indicators.

Premium Economy booking classes are G,E,N (more expensive to cheaper) and Business booking classes are J,C,D,Z,P (more expensive to cheaper). The numbers are the number of seats LH is still selling in each class where 9 means 9 or more.
I'm afraid I cannot answer your question about how much to bid for PE or BC. May I suggest you check the following thread?
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/lufth...rade-pe-c.html
and this LH page about myOffer upgrades?
https://www.lufthansa.com/de/en/myoffer#FAQ
There is no Premium Economy for MUC-TLV-MUC and it's not worth upgrading to Business since you will get the same seat (with the seat next to you kept free).

Thanks in advance.
