Lufthansa and SWISS Customer benefits start 20 July 2005

*Travel News Asia*	*13 July 2005*

From July 20, only two weeks after the Lufthansa and SWISS airlines received cartel clearance, members of Miles & More and Swiss TravelClub will be able to start benefiting from the advantages of the new partnership.

Swiss TravelClub members will be able to earn Club Miles on all Lufthansa-operated scheduled flights. They can also redeem previously earned miles for Lufthansa Free Tickets. Conversely, members of Miles & More can earn award and status miles on SWISS-operated flights and book award flights with SWISS.

Reciprocal lounge access also begins on July 20. Members of Swiss Circle and Swiss Travel-Club Gold may use Lufthansa Senator Lounges when flying with Lufthansa. In return, HON Circle members and Senators of the Miles & More programme have access to Swiss First and Swiss Business Class lounges respectively whenever they fly SWISS.

Services are expected to be further harmonised when SWISS joins the Star Alliance which is foreseen for summer 2006.
