Not attractive ?

LTU dumped a lot of tix to JFK for the winter months and is offering several European destinations far below the fares of LH...In addition to that they offer very attractive deals on ltur.de , remember a family member taking LT to Cancun for € 160 all in early this year...

More importantly, their walk up fares are significantly cheaper than on LH and this is a cornerstone of LH to make money....
