LOT is once again offering a good Miles&More mileage bargain. Departing from Warsaw, you can get to Chicago (and back) for only 61,000 miles and PLN 778 (~€184) in business class.
These comparatively low taxes and fees make the journey to Poland very worthwhile. For comparison: additional payments of €1,000 (or more) are now common for flights with the Lufthansa Group. The trips must take place between November 1 and December 31, 2025, and we even found availability in the Christmas holidays (but you have to return before New Years Eve).

The Polish airline LOT only has one long-haul aircraft type, the Boeing 787 (Dreamliner) – thus every flight will have the exact same seats. Everything is slightly above average, except the seat alignment (2-2-2), which doesn’t offer direct access to the aisle for the window seats. A further disadvantage of flying with LOT: There’s no Wi-Fi, even if you’d be willing to pay for it. So, if you intend to work (with internet access) during the flight, you should choose a different airline. LOT is, however, very generous with its baggage allowance (3 x 32 kg).
Feel free to use our search form to find available dates at Miles&More. It may take you a couple of tries to find available dates. Remember, the flights have to take place between November 1 and December 31, 2025.

Have You guys found any other BC seats available except for the 6-11 NOV (too short for me) ? I have my miles expiring soon and Miami in November is a great escape from a foggy Poland but I cannot find anything. I will be also good with 2 PE seats on the same dates? Any ideas?
PE is available on e.g. 2.10, 8.10., 15.10., 16.10., 28.10, 30.10., 2.11, 3.11., 6.11, 9.11. 10.11, 11.11.
Back on e.g. 12.10., 13.10., 15.10, 16.10., 19.10.,20.10., 22.10., 10.11, 11.11.,23.11., 24.11, 25.11.
Business really seems to be limited to 6.-11.11 by now.
Yes, for one person there is many dates in Premium, but I am looking for two people. Any finds on that? It seems like they only put a single seat to call i mileage bargain….
You’re right, I couldn’t find any availability for 2 people on any date either.
Hi, at the end of first sentence of description it is written BUSINESS CLASS, but according to screenshot and headline it seems to be PREMIUM ECONOMY…
Good catch, fixed it, thanks. Business class costs 55,000 miles and is almost never available
Oh my god, you just fixed it in the headline, but not in the running text (see first sentence, second line):
The 55.000 miles mentioned there are for BUSINESS CLASS and not for PREMIUM ECONOMY (= 40.000 miles) as you wrote…
More precision will be highly appreciated!
Hello Peer,
one question:
Is it possible to check availability without having enough award miles on my M&M account?
I could transfer enough miles, but I only would do so if I knew that my desired flight is available.
1000 thanks,
Markus
Hi Markus,
Miles&More will display award flights even if you don’t have enough miles to actually purchase them. If you use the search form at the bottom of the deal, you will be redirected to Miles&More’s site, where the available flights will be displayed. However, the availability is very low, especially for these LOT bargain flights, so it’s very likely that there simply won’t be any available flights any more.
Hi Ditmar,
thank you for your reply.
In fact, I am redirected, but the site I am redirected to doesn’t perform the search but says that I don’t have got enough award miles to buy. That may be because I even haven’t got 7,000 miles to buy anything…
Just wanted to search for any possibility to get a business class flight from Europe to the US in the summer holidays by miles and thougt this could be a possibility worth trying. 🙁
Best regards,
Markus
If you have a specific route and dates in mind, I’ll check it for you
Hi Ditmar,
that would be great.
To be honest, there are many routes that would fit.
We live in Berlin, that would be ideal, but we could start and/or end almost anywere in the EU.
We want to fly to NYC (JFK/EWR/LGA) from Europe and return from SMY or SFO or LAS or (last preferred choice) LAX to Europe.
Outbound not earlier than July 18th, Inbound not later than August 17th. We would like to stay in the US for 18 to 23 days in total.
Flights should be at least Premium Eco, US–>Europe should be Business if possible.
4 persons: 2 adults, 1x 12/13 year-old, 1x 8 year-old.
But just for 1 or two would probably work also, as we would buy the remaining tickets.
Many thanks and best regards,
Markus
There are 4 available business class seats from Berlin to JFK on July 19. There are also 4 seats on the way back on August 6-10 (any of those days).
However, this only seems to work if you book it as a JFK roundtrip. I wasn’t able to find anything from the West Coast (except for economy class from LAS).
The cost per person for a business class round trip to New York is 112,000 miles + €700 in fees and taxes. However, you can cut the cost down to roughly €400 by departing from Copenhagen instead of Berlin.
Du musst mindestens 9000 Meilen auf dem Konto haben, soviel, dass Du überhaupt etwas buchen könntest. Dann geht die Suche! Ich hatte das auch schon mal festgestellt. 🙂
I don’t see any availability for June.
If I book the ticket for May can I still rebook it for June paying 25€ or this will not work either because there has to be availability?
Yes, you need availability in LOT Business Class to rebook. So that won’t work.
Sometimes availability does increase during the month. If I were you, I’d make sure to check the Miles&More website regularly. Or even better, use Expertflyer’s premium subscription in order to receive an e-mail when the desired award booking class is available.
you cannot enter India as a tourist.
They suspended visa application for a while now.
Funny is they didn’t claim responsibility over this decision, instead the e-visa website is down for a month 🙂
That’s true for now. However it was announced that starting Nov. 15, 2021 tourist visas will once again be issued:
