The Big Picture
We found availability to Europe this summer (May through September 2026) for as cheap as 45,000 points per person, non-stop in business. This is flying Lufthansa while booking through Air Canada with routes between the U.S. (BOS, DEN, DFW, EWR, IAD, IAH, MIA, ORD, SEA) and Germany (Frankfurt or Munich). If Germany is not your final destination, you may be able to replace FRA/MUC with another European location for a similar price (or self-connect as you please).
Examples of routes (priced per person one way):
- BOS, EWR to/from FRA = 60,000
- DFW, IAD, IAH, MIA, ORD to/from FRA = 70,000
- BOS to/from MUC = 60,000
- DEN, IAD, ORD, SEA to/from MUC = 70,000
If you have Chase points, this deal just became even sweeter as there is a 15-25% transfer bonus to Air Canada through January 5, lowering the price to 45k-60k per person one way! The transfer bonus is variable depending on how many points you are transferring.
For example with the bonus:
- if transferring 1,000–74,000 points, you get a 15% transfer bonus
- if transferring 175,000–174,000 points, you get a 20% transfer bonus
- if transferring 175,000+ points, you get a 25% transfer bonus
Keep in mind you can add a stopover on each one-way or round trip ticket through Air Canada for as little as 5k extra per person if you are interested in another destination within Europe.
All of the dates below have confirmed availability for at least 2 passengers with over 9 seats on most dates. Expect taxes to be ~$60 per person outbound and ~$220 per person returning.
