Visa Info

Most Europeans need an electronic system for travel authorization (ESTA) to enter the USA for up to 90 days. This costs US$21 (~€19) and you should apply for it a couple of days before your trip, at the latest.

There are some cases where you cannot apply for an ESTA, e.g. if you’ve been to Cuba since 2021 or to Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, or North Korea since March 2011. In those cases, you’ll need to get a visa from a US embassy or consulate, which can take multiple weeks.

Search & Book

Unfortunately, the fare rules do not indicate how long this offer will be available. Departures are available between September 2025 to March 2026.

The minimum stay is 6 days or a Saturday-to-Sunday overnight stay. According to the fare conditions, the maximum stay at the destination is 12 months. The cheapest fare, Economy Light, no longer allows any changes. Only Economy Basic with checked baggage allows changes for €150 plus any fare difference.

You can quickly and easily find suitable dates using Google Flights (guide). There, you can filter specifically for flights via Munich and to JFK (instead of Newark), so that only the Lufthansa A380 flights are shown. Booking can then be completed directly through Lufthansa. On their homepage, you can see if flights are operated by A380 aircraft fairly easily:

Upper Deck Seat Reservation for €50 per Direction

The upper deck of the Lufthansa A380 mainly houses First and Business Class. However, at the rear of the upper deck, there are also 35 Economy Class seats. Lufthansa markets these as preferred seats. With Senator status, you can reserve them for free. All others pay a €50 surcharge per segment.

Considering that a regular seat reservation on the lower deck costs €35, the extra €15 seems like a good investment. The upper deck is ideal, especially for couples, as it has large storage compartments next to the window seats (since that space isn’t used otherwise). The only downside: you can’t lean against the window as easily.

Miles & Points

The tickets are issued in booking class K. For the example flight from Stockholm via Munich to New York linked above, you can expect approximately the following mileage credit (round-trip total):

2,908 Miles on ANA Mileage Club
2,424 Award Miles + 484 PQP on United MileagePlus
2,424 Miles on ITA Volare
780 Award Miles + 160 Points on Miles&More
