LufthansaThe integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group is making further progress: Miles & More members can now also earn Points for their frequent flyer status on ITA Airways flights in addition to miles. By Points, Qualifying Points and – in Business Class – HON Circle Points, they will have even more opportunities to obtain or achieve Lufthansa Group frequent flyer status in future. The number of Points is awarded on ITA Airways flights according to the same system as for the other Lufthansa Group airlines and the co-issuing Miles & More airline partners.
ITA Airways has been a member of the Lufthansa Group since January 17, 2025, offering passengers additional benefits and improvements. Miles & More members already have the opportunity to earn and redeem miles on ITA Airways flights. In addition, members of Volare, the frequent flyer program of ITA Airways, can also earn and redeem Volare Points on Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines and Brussels Airlines. The offer to qualify for Lufthansa Group status on flights with ITA Airways with immediate effect is another important step in the collaboration.
“It is great to see how quickly the integration of ITA Airways into the Lufthansa Group is progressing,” says Dieter Vranckx, Chief Commercial Officer of the Lufthansa Group. “This is a significant strategic step as loyalty is a key success factor of this integration, since we can offer seamless benefits and an even more comprehensive offering to our loyal passengers.”

“I am delighted for the most loyal customers of the Lufthansa Group airlines, which now also includes ITA Airways. For them, the new opportunity to earn Points for Lufthansa Group frequent flyer status is a great benefit,” says Caroline Drischel, Senior Vice President Customer Journey Lufthansa Group. “This gives our frequent flyers more opportunities to achieve or maintain their status – and thus enjoy exclusive benefits.”

Next steps already planned
The addition of ITA Airways flights to the Lufthansa Group airlines route network will give customers greater choice and more flexibility. Starting with the summer flight schedule on March 30, more than 100 flight connections will initially share their flight numbers and can thus be combined more easily. Also from March 30, ITA Airways passengers will also be able to visit and use the approximately 130 lounges of the Lufthansa Group and its partners during their travels. The lounges of ITA Airways will also be open to Lufthansa Group passengers from this date. ITA Airways is scheduled to officially join the Star Alliance in the first half of 2026.
