Anyone who books the Economy Light fare with the airline must in future take the seat that is assigned to them.
Lufthansa is continuing to cut back the services in its cheapest tariff, “Economy Light”. Passengers with these tickets can only change seats on Lufthansa and Swiss European flights from June 21 for a fee of 25 euros or more. Lufthansa announced this on Monday. As before, families and groups would not be separated when booking together.
This means that Eco-Light customers are no longer able to switch to seats that are still available free of charge from 23 hours before departure. There are only exceptions on flights to Italy if children between the ages of two and twelve or the disabled are accompanied. With the more expensive tickets, everything stays the same, the seat reservation is included in the price.
