The integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group is advancing, offering new benefits to frequent flyers. As of now, Miles & More members can earn Points for their frequent flyer status on ITA Airways flights in addition to miles. This includes Qualifying Points and HON Circle Points for Business Class travelers, providing more opportunities to achieve or maintain Lufthansa Group frequent flyer status. The Points system on ITA Airways aligns with that of other Lufthansa Group airlines and co-issuing Miles & More airline partners.
Since January 17, 2025, ITA Airways has been part of the Lufthansa Group, enhancing passenger benefits. Members of the Volare program from ITA Airways can also earn and redeem Volare Points on Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, and Brussels Airlines flights. The ability to qualify for Lufthansa Group status on ITA Airways flights marks a significant step in this collaboration.
Dieter Vranckx, Chief Commercial Officer of the Lufthansa Group, stated: "It is great to see how quickly the integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group is progressing." He emphasized loyalty as a key success factor in this strategic move. Caroline Drischel, Senior Vice President Customer Journey at Lufthansa Group, added: "I am delighted for the most loyal customers... For them, the new opportunity to earn Points for Lufthansa Group frequent flyer status is a great benefit."
