Lufthansa Bid Upgrade Tips

If you’re looking to upgrade your Lufthansa flight through the airline’s bid system, there are a few tips that can increase your chances of success. 

  • Consider the timing of your bid. Bidding earlier in the process when fewer seats have been sold may give you a better chance of having your bid accepted. 
  • Be realistic with your bid amount and don’t lowball it, as Lufthansa is unlikely to accept bids that are significantly lower than the starting price. 
  • Consider upgrading during off-peak times when there may be more available seats to upgrade to. 
  • Keep an eye out for emails from Lufthansa offering special promotions or opportunities to bid on upgrades at a discounted rate. 

Aside from the tips above, remember the following:

  • Rebooking. If you’ve booked an upgrade and want to rebook your flight, call Lufthansa’s Service Center because such tickets cannot be rebooked online via Lufthansa.com due to technical reasons. Also, when rebooking a ticket, the originally booked fare conditions will apply. 
  • Cancellation. You can cancel your trip and request a refund online, but the upgrade charges will not be refunded. 
  • Flight disruptions
    • If your flight is disrupted 2 days before departure, you will be rebooked in the original travel class subject to the fare conditions of your original ticket and the upgrade fee will be fully refunded. 
    • If your flight is disrupted 1 day before departure or on the actual day of departure, you will be rebooked with all the services and entitlements of the new travel class.
