Lufthansa Miles and More

Many travelers like to sell their Lufthansa miles because there are so many ways to earn them! Here are a few examples:

The membership levels of Lufthansa Miles and More are as follows:

  • Miles & More Member: the initial membership level, it gives the possibility of earning miles with 36 months of validity before expiration.
  • Frequent Traveler: after accruing 35,000 miles during 1 calendar year, each member will receive 25% bonus miles, no expiration for the miles earned, preferential check-in, free baggage allowances and lounge access.
  • Senator: after accruing 100,000 miles during 1 calendar year, each member will receive all the benefits of the former level plus upgrade vouchers, and guaranteed booking up to 48 hours before departure.
  • Hon Circle Member: after accruing 600,000 miles during 2 calendar years, each member will receive all the benefits of the former level plus personal assistance, access to exclusive Hon Circle lounges, and guaranteed booking up to 24 hours before departure.

Our FAQ for Selling Lufthansa Miles in 2026:

  1. Is it legal to sell my Lufthansa Miles & More miles? Yes. While Lufthansa’s terms and conditions state that miles are non-transferable for commercial purposes, there are no laws in the United States or the EU that prohibit the sale of your own property. As a professional broker, we act as the intermediary to ensure the transaction is handled within a secure framework that protects your account from being flagged.
  2. How does the 2026 “Dynamic Pricing” affect my mileage value? In the past, Lufthansa used a fixed award chart. Now, the number of miles required for a flight is loosely tied to the cash price of the ticket. This means that during peak travel seasons, your miles lose significant purchasing power. By selling to The Points King, you lock in a stable cash rate based on the wholesale market value, bypassing the volatility of the airline’s pricing algorithms.
  3. Will selling my miles affect my Frequent Traveller, Senator, or HON Circle status? No. As of the 2024 program overhaul, Lufthansa separated “Award Miles” (which we buy) from “Points,” “Qualifying Points,” and “HON Circle Points” (which determine your status). Selling your spendable miles has zero impact on your status progress or your current elite benefits like lounge access and priority boarding.
  4. What is the minimum amount of miles I can sell? We typically require a minimum of 40,000 miles to initiate a transaction. However, we offer significant “bulk premiums” for accounts with 160,000, 250,000, or 500,000+ miles, as these are highly coveted for booking First Class suites on Lufthansa and SWISS.
  5. Can I sell miles that are expiring soon? Lufthansa miles typically expire 36 months after they are earned. If you do not have elite status or a Miles & More credit card, these miles will vanish. We can purchase miles that are close to expiration, but we recommend requesting a quote at least 30 days before the deadline to ensure smooth processing.
  6. How do you ensure my account is safe during the transaction? We use what we call “Ghost Protocol” verification. We recommend you set a “burner” or temporary password before providing access. We then verify the balance and use the miles to book legitimate business-class flights for our corporate clients. Once the transaction is finalized, you change your password back, and your account remains in good standing.
  7. Why shouldn’t I just use my miles for “Mileage Bargains”? While “Mileage Bargains” (Meilenschnäppchen) can offer good value, they are non-refundable and non-changeable. Furthermore, Lufthansa’s high fuel surcharges—often exceeding $800 for a round-trip Business Class ticket—can make these “bargain” flights feel very expensive. Selling for cash gives you 100% flexibility with no out-of-pocket taxes.
  8. How do I get paid, and how fast? Most clients are paid via PayPal within 24 hours of account verification. For high-volume accounts (over 500,000 miles), we also offer secure Bank Wire transfers.
  9. Do you buy miles from partner airlines like Swiss, Austrian, or Brussels Airlines? Yes. Because these airlines are all part of the “Miles & More” ecosystem, they all use the same mileage currency. If your points are in a Miles & More account, regardless of which airline you flew to earn them, we can purchase them.
  10. What if I earned my miles through a credit card? Whether you earned your miles through the Lufthansa World Elite Mastercard, flying, or hotel stays, the value remains the same. As long as the miles are currently in your Miles & More balance, they are eligible for a cash buyout.
