Why Lufthansa?
- I used Lufthansa airlines in the past and I loved traveling with them. The level of their hospitality is extreme and the airline staff is very friendly, cooperative, and polite.
- The airline price for both KLM and Air Canada was much higher as compared to Lufthansa with the same number of stopover locations. With Lufthansa, I got the best price available and saved almost $1000 on two tickets.
- The baggage policy for Air Canada is first checked bag free and $100 for the second checked bag but with Lufthansa, both the checked bag are free of any charge.
