UPDATE (Oct 23, 2026): 19 more JFK 747-8 dates in spring and summer, plus 6 dates from Chicago to Frankfurt.
Lufthansa business class on its two double-deckers with Aeroplan points, one way per person:
- 747-8, JFK to Frankfurt (LH401): 60,000 points
- 747-8, Chicago O'Hare to Frankfurt (LH431): 75,000 points
- A380, Washington Dulles to Munich (LH415): 75,000 points
Taxes about CAD $80; Aeroplan usually adds a CAD $39 partner fee that Seats.aero may not show.
JFK to Frankfurt (LH401), 2027, 9 seats unless noted:
- March: 29, 30
- April: 4 (8), 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 26, 27
- July: 6, 14, 15, 22, 23, 27, 29
- August: 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14
Leaves about 3:50 PM, lands about 5:25 AM next day.
Chicago to Frankfurt (LH431), 2027, 9 seats unless noted:
- March: 1, 8, 15, 31 (4)
- April: 12 (3), 26
Dulles to Munich (LH415), 2027, 9 seats unless noted:
- March: 29, 30
- July: 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 27, 31
- August: 1, 2, 3, 5 (6), 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 (3), 12 (4), 16
JFK is the best deal. Chicago costs more but gives the Midwest its own nonstop 747-8.
Both planes have lie-flat beds. The 747-8 has a small 2-2 cabin upstairs, but an upstairs seat isn't guaranteed. Some A380s are getting a new 1-2-1 cabin; we can't confirm which one these flights get. Lufthansa can swap planes, so check the seat map.
How to book:
1. Sign in to Aeroplan at aircanada.com and book with points.
2. Search one way on a date above and pick the Lufthansa flight in Business.
3. Make sure the seats, points and taxes still show before you move any points. Amex, Chase, Capital One, Bilt and Rove transfer to Aeroplan; transfers can't be undone.
From Seats.aero (Oct 21 to 23, 2026); still needs checking on aircanada.com.
