Lufthansa‘s Miles & More programme is celebrating its 20th birthday this year with a raft of promotions.
The latest is a 20% bonus on all miles earned when you fly with any Miles & More airline this September!
Here is the text from the Miles & More website:
Now both you and your mileage account can really take off! In September you can earn 20% more award miles on all cross-border flights with many Miles & More partners – from the day you register for the promotion until 30 September 2013.
It’s worth acting quickly: only if you are among the first 20,000 registered participants can you benefit from the extra 20% mileage credit.
The offer applies to all worldwide, cross-border scheduled flights by the following partners: Austrian Airlines, Adria Airways, Air Dolomiti, Brussels Airlines, Croatia Airlines, Germanwings, LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Luxair and SWISS.
You must register, and you must be in the first 20,000 people to do so. This should not be a problem if you register today.
Registration is a bit of a faff.
First, you need to go to the Miles & More website and log in.
ONLY when you have logged in, should you click this link here. If you do not log in first, it won’t work.
Registration is a no-brainer if you have any flights with any of the listed airlines over the next month.

How to earn Star Alliance miles from UK credit cards (April 2025)
None of the Star Alliance airlines currently have a UK credit card.
There is, however, still a way to earn Star Alliance miles from a UK credit card.
The route is via Marriott Bonvoy. Marriott Bonvoy hotel loyalty points convert to over 40 airlines at the rate of 3:1.
The best way to earn Marriott Bonvoy points is via the official Marriott Bonvoy American Express card. It comes with 20,000 points for signing up and 2 points for every £1 you spend. At 2 Bonvoy points per £1, you are earning (at 3:1) 0.66 airline miles per £1 spent on the card.
There is a preferential conversion rate to United Airlines – which is a Star Alliance member – of 2 : 1 if you convert 60,000 Bonvoy points at once.
The Star Alliance members which are Marriott Bonvoy transfer partners are: Aegean, Air Canada, Air China, Air New Zealand, ANA, Asiana Airlines, Avianca, Copa Airlines, Singapore Airlines, TAP Air Portugal, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines and United Airlines.
