Lufthansa Card Changing On July 1st

For anyone that has been thinking about getting the Lufthansa Premier Miles & More credit card, I just got an email saying that on July 1st, the offer is changing!

The current offer ending June 30th is:

• 20,000 miles after 1st purchase

• 30,000 additional miles after spending $5,000 or more in purchases in the first 90 days of opening your account

So in total, if you can spend $5,000 in 3 months, you can earn 50,000 Lufthansa miles!

The new offer starting July 1st is:

• 20,000 miles after 1st purchase

• 15,000 miles when you complete an initial balance transfer within the first 30 days of account opening

While both offers give you 20,000 Lufthansa miles after 1st purchase, the new offer starting on July 1st, there is no additional bonus for doing any minimum spend. Additionally, the balance transfer bonus (15,000 miles) is only half of the current offer (30,000 miles).

Although Lufthansa miles aren’t great for flights on Lufthansa (due to high fuel surcharges), they are great if you want to use the Lufthansa miles for Domestic flights on United (no fuel surcharge)!

Assuming you sign up for the current offer and complete the minimum spend, with 55,000 Lufthansa miles you could get 2 Domestic Economy tickets on United or 1 Domestic Business Class ticket on United! Not bad!

Anyways if you are interested in getting this card, I’d recommend signing up before the offer changes on July 1st!
