Never before has it been possible to choose between so many inner-European travel destinations as it is today. All of the possibilities don't necessarily make our lives easier. Lufthansa now wants to help make the right choice.

In recent years, the selection of intra-European destinations has increased significantly, especially low-cost carriers keep every noteworthy European city in the route network - even in CoV times. Air travelers are therefore often faced with a well-known problem: "Where am I going this time?" Lufthansa surprise- Flights are supposed to provide the answer to this question.

With this package, the customer passes the decision on to the airline. However, this decision is not made arbitrarily, but based on a selection made in advance with regard to the travel topic and travel period. After booking, the mystery and the destination are finally revealed, the airline will provide more information in the booking confirmation.

A really nice idea that will definitely add amusing added value for spontaneous or adventurous travelers. Lufthansa itself can also win new potential travelers for its European route network in this way. The offer is restricted several times. The final selection made by the AUA mother can no longer be shaken. The flights cannot be rebooked or reimbursed. The 24-hour right of withdrawal does not apply here either. In addition, Lufthansa Surprise is only valid for flights from FRA and MUC, and the flights can only be booked one to 42 days before departure. In addition, a minimum stay of 18 hours for one night and 36 hours for two nights is required, according to simpleflying.com.
