Star Alliance members SWISS, Singapore Airlines, and Lufthansa have teamed up to offer some cheap fares to Jakarta and Medan, Indonesia. Prices start at merely €430 for flights from Luxembourg. You can also fly from Paris, Zurich, or Rome for less than €500. These prices all include luggage!
At Lufthansa, the cheapest fare can still be rebooked without a rebooking fee. The travel route can also be changed, but the price difference always has to be paid.
There seems to be good availability all year long. You can use our search form to try out some dates and be directly sent to Lufthansa’s booking site.
To Medan:
- Paris: €457
- Zurich: CHF 519 (~€536)
- Rome: €496
Usually, you’ll first fly to Zurich, from where SWISS will fly you to Singapore. Singapore Airlines will then get you to Indonesia. SWISS uses a Boeing 777 for its flights to Singapore.
