Lufthansa is (sadly) notorious for Allegris, the name of its latest generation passenger experience concept. This includes new long haul first class and business class products, with the rollout of the new business class being perhaps the most botched product introduction we’ve ever seen in the airline industry.
While I’ve covered this in general, in this post I’d like to talk about one aspect of Allegris business class that maybe doesn’t get enough attention. This post is prompted by a (sort of) hilarious information sheet that has been shared with me, showing just how absurd things have become.
In this post:
But here’s where it gets interesting. Lufthansa actually has rules around which seats have to be assigned when an adult travels with a child in Allegris business class. You can find the chart below for the A350. For what it’s worth, “Kind” means “kid,” and “Erwachsener” means “adult.” The first section is about adults traveling with one child, while the second section is about adults traveling with two children.
The one benefit here is that according to Lufthansa’s website, “for flights in Allegris Business Class, seat reservations for children are free of charge, with the exception of the Business Class Suite.” So at least you can assign acceptable seats together, even though none of those seats will actually be together. They’ll simply be less far apart than some other seat combinations.
