LTU
Some of you friends can tell me about a FF program that takes LTU, as I think they don't have their own, I flew them for the first time in late March and will fly them again soon: My route FRA or Stuttgart to Palma de Mallorca 2 or 3 times a year.
Thanks for your help and advise

LTU caters primarily to the charter passengers, and as far as I know does not have its own FF programme or connect with any alliance.
Believe me; I've tried the same with its Scandinavian counterparts Premiair, Britannia, Sterling Airways etc.
Maybe you could try Condor, Lufthansa's subsidiary??

but ... enjoy the flight and holidays anyway

Here is the skinny on LTU (flew them 1st class on my honeymoon to the Maldives awesome) You cannot EARN miles on LTU flights but you can SPEND your Qualiflyer miles for LTU flights.

I was very impressed with their service on both DUS-MLE and MLE-FRA. I would gladly fly them again.

I usually have to fly LTU when I buy a vacation from germany and I have to say in coach the seats are very narrow and tight. i prefer any other european or american airline anytime. Well it is a charter so for short flygts to spain or tukey it is ok.
Food is ok.
Some figures:
A300-300 first 22
coach 323 !!!
B757 coach 210 !!!!!( no first)
