How to book directly on Lufthansa using united miles

Is there a way to book flights on Lufthansa.com directly using united mileage plus miles? I have typically booked flights on LH using United mileage plus miles on united.com but would like to do so directly on lufthansa.com because the LH award flights I want are not showing up on united.com and I thought maybe they would on lufthansa.com. But I could not figure out how to do it.

Thanks

Like UA, LH saves some flight inventory for its program members.

As mentioned you can not use UA miles to book award flights on LH's site. You will have to change your mileage accrual from UA to LH (and status earning to LH). Or use a credit card that will earn LH miles.
