Lufthansa Introduces Early Seat Reservation for an Extra Charge
Early seat reservation for Lufthansa passengers booked in selected booking classes (designated W, S, T, L, K) will incur a 25 euro per seat charge on long-haul flights in the future.
The optional service will be introduced April 28. This change, according to officals, brings the additional advance seat reservation service fees in line with those incurred on domestic and European routes, which have been offered at a price of 10 euro since November 2013. As in the past, all guests may choose their preferred seat at no extra charge when checking in, up to 23 hours before departure.
Advanced seat reservation in these lower priced booking classes becomes an optional service at the time of booking. For the remaining Economy booking classes, advanced seat reservation remains free of charge. This service also remains free of charge in the upcoming Premium Economy Class, Business and First Class. For HON Circle members and Senators, advanced seat reservation is free of charge in all booking classes.
Seats can also be reserved during or after the booking process with travel agents, online via LH.com, or at Lufthansa ticketing locations.
