Booking & Miles: Quick Wins
- Lufthansa First/Business: check Miles & More close-in; mixed-cabin upgrades can be great value on specific routes.
- Qatar Business: search Privilege Club and oneworld partners; when possible, target flights with the full Qsuite.
- Condor Premium Economy: cash fares often undercut legacy carriers — compare the total price (bags + seat selection).
- Sweet-spot mindset: flexibility on dates/aircraft and positioning flights unlock better products.
- Day vs Night: pay more for lie-flats when you’ll actually sleep; save on daytime legs.
- Do the math: include taxes/fees and lounge access before you book.
