Star Alliance member Lufthansa currently offers an amazing premium economy deal from the United Kingdom and Amsterdam to Bangalore, India. Starting at £563 (~€657), 2 checked luggage of 23kg each are already included.
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Lufthansa with your selected flight dates.
First, you will fly to Germany on a Lufthansa Airbus319/320/321, depending on your flight, with a 3-3 economy class configuration. For the flight to India, if you depart from Frankfurt, you will have the chance to fly on the Lufthansa Boeing 747, also known as the “queen of the skies,” featuring a 2-4-2 premium economy configuration. However, if you fly from Munich, you will travel on the Lufthansa Airbus 350, offering a 2-3-2 premium economy configuration.
At the same price, we would recommend booking via Munich since Lufthansa uses a 2-3-2 Premium Economy seating, instead of the more common 2-4-2 configuration used by almost all other airlines for this cabin.
