only on longhaul flights, advance seat reservation for Lufthansa HON Circle Members and Senators and up to three of their companions is free of charge in all travel classes and for all seats.
The usual fees applies on shorthaul flights.

Pardon? This is either completely wrong or a new policy. So far it was of course possible for SEN and HON and their travel parties to book seats on shorthauls (excl. Eco Light) without fees. Can you please clarify?
