Does Lufthansa block seats for Covid?

Update: As of May 4, 2020, Lufthansa will no longer block middle seats, but rather will require passengers to wear face masks. I've written about the measures that American and United have taken to encourage social distancing on planes.

Will we sit together on plane?

Paying for Seats

Some airlines allow you to pick your own seats, but charge more for "premium economy" seats, such as exit rows or seats near the front of the plane. ... The strictest airlines may even separate passengers who booked their tickets together.

What is preferred seating on Lufthansa?

Seats in the preferred seating zone

The preferred seating zone is located in front of Economy Class, directly behind Business or Premium Economy Class. These seats enable you to leave the aircraft quickly after landing, making your journey even easier and more flexible.

Is it worth paying for seat selection?

In fact, most regular airlines now charge for seat selection anyways. It's often around $10-$30 per seat per flight segment, so if you cave in and pay for that, it can add up quickly. You shouldn't do it. No matter which airline you're flying on, don't ever pay to select a seat.

At what age can a child sit alone on a plane?

How Old Do Kids Have to Be to Fly Alone? Airlines generally consider children between the ages of 5 and 14 who travel without a parent or guardian to be “unaccompanied minors.” For kids between 15 and 17, unaccompanied minor service is typically optional.

Is Lufthansa blocking seats in business class?

Based on the airline's website, rather than just block the middle seat, Lufthansa will block four seats at each row in Business Class, leaving only two. This means that business-class passengers on this flight will get what is commonly referred to as the “poor man's lie-flat seat.”

Does Lufthansa check carry on weight?

Lufthansa Checked Baggage Allowance

All checked bags must adhere to a max weight of 50 pounds (23 kg) for economy and premium economy fares and 70 pounds (32 kg) for business and first class fares; must adhere to max linear dimensions per bag up to 62 inches (158 cm).

How do I select my seat on Lufthansa?

You can also reserve a seat even after you have completed your booking, up to 52 hours before departure. Retrieve your trip under 'My bookings' and book or change your seat there afterwards. Changes are only possible to seats at the same or a lower price, and charges already paid will not be reimbursed.

What happens if you don't select seats on a flight?

If you're buying a Saver fare and don't like the choice of seats, simply click on “Skip Seats” and you'll be assigned seats for free during check-in, which may include seats towards the front of the plane.

How do you get seats together on basic economy?

Most will try to help families sit together — as it usually helps cabin crew and fellow passengers when there's an adult looking after a child. Travelers can make seat reassignment easier by booking their family airfare on the same reservation to keep every member of your traveling party close.

Can I buy 2 seats on a plane for myself?

The airline's website states you can purchase an extra seat by using your name for both tickets and selecting the desired seat assignments. This is allowed whether you need the extra seat for yourself, want some breathing room or for any other reason.
