Lufthansa Airlines - Rick Steves Travel Forum

Lufthansa, who has had good or bad experience flying? Thanks
Lufthansa is in my opinion one of the best airlines in the world. I often fly LH because I have lots of United miles (they are partners with the Star Alliance) and also because my home airport (and yours), SFO, is a United and Lufthansa hub, therefore they together offer plenty of flights daily to Europe (via Germany).

Flights "operated by" different airline - Rick Steves Travel Forum
My wife and I are going back to Europe next summer and, as I peruse airfares, I have come across flights listed under one airline (Lufthansa, Austrian) but "operated by" another (United, Air Canada). If memory serves from past experience, "operated by" flights means you get on that airline's equipment and deal with their personnel.

no refund Lufthansa cancellation - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Unfortunately, I don’t think there is any way that Lufthansa will be flexible and offer a refund. You need to look at the specific terms of the travel insurance or credit card coverage offered to see if this is covered. It sounds to me that in SJ’s case her husband was a travel partner and therefore named in the insurance policy.

I know that I can retrieve my Lufthansa booking number from United to try and reserve the seats through Lufthansa directly. My question is- has anyone had recent success with this? I am paying extra through United to have free seat selection as this is important to me and my travel companions.
