Star Alliance members SWISS and Lufthansa are currently running a first class companion sale from most Nordic countries. You can e.g. fly to Shanghai for only €1,384 per passenger – a fantastic price! The only condition: you need to buy tickets for at least 2 passengers.

Info

Worldwide travel restrictions are in place to slow the spread of Covid-19. We strongly recommend gathering detailed information about the travel and quarantine restrictions that apply to your desired origin and destination.

A good start is the International Air Transport Association (IATA) website. It provides current updates on a country’s immigration policies. Even better, the Covid-19 Travel Regulations Map is one of the most useful tools you can find.

Here are some of the destinations that you could fly to (prices are per person):

Two Lufthansa first class tickets to Shanghai for a total of €2,767

You would fly business class to Zurich, and then first class on the long-haul flights. If you select a connection that is operated by Lufthansa, you’d fly via Frankfurt.

Warning

Lufthansa has decided to phase out most aircraft type that feature a First Class cabin. To make sure you can enjoy a super premium ride, you should try to book flights with SWISS via Zurich. All of SWISS’ long haul aircraft still have First Class seats installed up front.

Search & Book

    Just to let you know – all those tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE… . :\

    • Peer says:

      Onfortunately, yes. However if you’d want to rebook on another connection, Lufthansa would at least waive the change fee. Better than nothing.

  2. Wayne says:

    beware, First-Lounge in Zurich is closed (only “one-for-all-Lounge” is open, not comparable to the First-Lounge)!
