I got just one quick thing to add to the previous poster's answer. As a courtesy, call up LH after getting off in FRA or stop by at the counter and tell them you won't be able to take the last leg due to a last-minute change of plans. That way, they don't have to call you out at the gate. They might even be able to give your seat to someone else.

Just wondering, does if LH block the first row of their PE cabin on long haul routes for their own Senators and Hon Circles? According to expertflyer, on the specific flight and date I'm going to fly all seats in the other rows are all occupied and only bulkhead seats are available but they seem blocked. LH.com doesn't allow me to select seats on that segment and doesn't even open the seat map. Does this row open on OLCI or should I need to go to the airport early in order to secure a window or aisle seat. I am sharing the screenshot from expertflyer below.

They open up at OLCI.

Just spend the 14k miles in the shop or donate them, if they are about to expire.

I am finding cheap LH Economy flights via Google Flights. When I get redirected from GF to LH, I can book them, but they book into Economy Light.
I'd rather book them as Economy Basic, since I want to credit them to UA MP and Economy Light would only credit 50% PQM instead of 100% PQM.
When I try to book the exact same flight through the LH website, rates are at least double, as it's only showing me the Basic Plus fares. Basic Light and Basic are hidden.
Is there a way to "upgrade" to standard Basic with a flight in the shopping cart? I'm not seeing it.

For example, you could go in one direction with such a route, and come back with the train. Of course, I realize that this is Germany centric, and you might not be anywhere near Germany!

I have a general question regarding paid upgrades
How do they relate to status miles ?
Pre airport upgrade from let’s say
eco to business
How do the upgrades relate to status
