The positive surprise of 2025 was perhaps Lufthansa, which did not misuse the switch to a dynamic rewards system at Miles & More for a price increase, as seen in other programs.

While prices in Business Class were partially raised, some reward flights in Economy Class have even become significantly cheaper, especially on short-haul routes.

That’s why the current promotion with Avis is certainly interesting: For reservations until January 31 (and rentals until April 30), you will receive 4,000 bonus miles for rentals of at least two days. With such a rental, you will hence receive enough miles for a round trip for four people from Frankfurt to Paris.
