Lufthansa Flight with ITA Volare Premium

[LouiseL]

Hello, I’m flying Lufthansa this week. I have no Star Alliance status but have ITA Volare Premium status.
I received an email saying that if I added my ITA number to any Lufthansa bookings I’d get extra points so I’ve done so.

My question is, can I get any status related benefits on my Lufty flights? Seat selection, fast track, lounge?
Thanks
Louise

From my experience seat selection is still chargeable. Lounge situation I don’t think anyone knows yet. Right now it is a no I believe, but from 30th March it is possible this will change. As per the LH website:

Starting March 30, 2025, the lounge networks of the Lufthansa Group and ITA Airways will gradually be harmonized. This will give premium customers and loyalty-program members reciprocal access to a wider lounge network. During the harmonization phase, some special access rules may apply.

Do report back and advise if you had any luck with the lounge. Interested to know as I have a LH flight coming up in May and might book more with them if I can access the lounges with ITA Premium.

Thanks Jetstreamer, will do.
I’ve checked in and I am in group 5 so I am not holding out much hope, I’ll ask when I get to LHR though.
