On LH we got 4 seats in "O" to BKK during the autumholiday and also for chrismas/new year! And I have already 4 seats for next years autumholiday with the new BKK service from MUC in "I" with the new seats !

As LH is not releasing inventory informations, I think it is reasonable to look for other signs, i.e. people complaining or, as in your case, people telling that availability is good. Overall my impression is that X is almost always to be had, I is difficult at least for the americas and O is virtually impossible if you need more than 2 seats - and two may already be too much.

Yes, but you do not really become a subscriber so they cannot keep you in their statistics as a subscriber for too long, I guess. But I think you are right that the "mysteriously bad deal" for them is not as bad as it seems, as most publications get their revenue primarily from the advertising, not from the price people pay to read the publication.

Has anyone tried this from the UK? I note that UK is an option.
I've tried to submit the form and at the end always get an error message for "Geburtsdatum" something. I know this means date of birth and have tried every combination thereof. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks!

Be careful about gutschein heft?
Just spoke to handelsblatt.
about the gutscheinheft. if you ordered more than 12 , you will not get it.
( they will only give out 12 because one year has only 12 month )
they got to many people ordering, actually some hundred people mrs k. told me.
and the handelsblatt abo seems to be more bad for them.
just got the information form one handelsblatt person, that they will now delete the direct order page too for the handelsblatt .
so hurry up if you want miles.

Presumably they will credit 12 though, rather than nothing, for those ordering more than 12?
And who's Mrs K?

as they have problems to get enough miles from miles and more. the woman told me, that they dont know if they can buy all the miles from miles and more.
so they are limiting the max order to 12 gutscheinheft.
you can only get more than 12, if you sent them a msg, that the other 12 for example if you ordered 24 are for you brother etc.
if not, they will only sent 12 to your home.
but anyway great deal, as i get my C Class upgrades on my christmas flights to germany from asia . this is quite nice. i will upgrade now.
thx HANDeLSBLATT!

Gutscheinhefte gone, but 13.000 Miles offer back?
I few seconds ago, I have been in the Handelsblatt section of the Lufthansa Miles & More site
http://www.miles-and-more.com/mam/de...299747,00.html
The offer for the Gutscheinhefte is gone, but the 13.000 Miles offer is back!
On the direct link for the Gutscheinhefte there is no Miles mentioned...
