How can I select a seat with Lufthansa?

Open your Lufthansa booking and check the seat map for each flight. Whether you can choose a seat for free, pay for one or receive an assignment later depends on your fare, flight and available seats.

Independent reservation assistance

Need help with a booking action?

Choose the exact action you need. These are independent travel-service numbers, not the airline's official customer-service line.

The telephone options below are for new bookings, flight changes or cancellations only. They are not baggage-claim, loyalty-account or refund-status support.

Independent reservation assistance is unavailable right now. The information on this page remains available.

What this answer depends on

Important unknowns

  • Fare product and ticket issue date
  • Current loyalty, card or other traveler benefits
  • Current size, weight, airport and temporary route restrictions
