Does anyone know how Lufthansa prioritizes the waitlist? Would PlusPoints or miles have higher priority (I believe on United they are the same), and how might frequent flyer status figure in?

Deciding which upgrade instrument to use...
There is no waitlist for Star Alliance Upgrade Awards. If the space isn’t available, the request is rejected.

PlusPoints upgrades, however, do waitlist if space isn’t available at time of request.
