Lufthansa has quietly stopped releasing first class award space to partner programs, and with the new Allegris cabin blocking partners entirely, the dream of redeeming miles for Lufthansa first class may be slipping away. Singapore Airlines is restricting seat selection for Saver and Lite fare bookings in business class, while American Airlines is stepping up its lounge game with scan-to-order menus and premium champagne at Admirals Clubs. We also cover a Virgin Atlantic points purchase bonus of up to 70%, Alaska's latest Global Getaways deals, a new oneworld and Taj Hotels status partnership, and what travelers need to know about the Lufthansa 787 gear collapse at Frankfurt.
