The Miles & More points frequent flyer programme of the Lufthansa Group now features ITA Airways flights. Members who fly with airlines can now collect Points, Qualifying Points, and HON Circle Points, this way they can improve their chances of either joining Lufthansa Group frequent flyers or remain for a longer period.
ITA Airways has officially joined the Lufthansa Group, offering passengers more benefits. Although members could already accrue and use miles on flights operated by airlines , this new feature firmly ties the airline into the program. Similar to other airlines and co-issuing Miles & More airline partners, can use the same system for calculating points earned on flights.
Furthermore, ITA Airways’ frequent flyer club, Volare, members can now accrue and redeem Volare Points on Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, and Brussels Airlines. This new opportunity to qualify for Lufthansa Group status on airlines flights marks a major step in their collaboration.
