I was flying back home from Barcelona and had to get there at the end of our stay in Tirana. Using my brother-in-law’s Miles & More family account, and benefiting from the dynamic pricing for flights on the Lufthansa Group with Miles & More, I was able to get a great deal to fly back to Spain from Albania via Austria and Germany for 3,412 miles.
| Date | Flight | From | At | To | At | Airline |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SUN 13 SEP | OS760 | TIRANA, AL (TIA) | 06:00 | VIENNA, AT (VIE) | 07:30 | Austrian Airlines |
| SUN 13 SEP | OS205 | VIENNA, AT (VIE) | 08:50 | FRANKFURT, DE (FRA) | 10:20 | Austrian Airlines |
| SUN 13 SEP | LH1130 | FRANKFURT, DE (FRA) | 13:30 | BARCELONA, ES (BCN) | 15:35 | Lufthansa |
With that, I was all set to return to Spain after our trip to Albania, thanks to Lufthansa Miles & More and, of course, my brother-in-law and his family.

Update:
This non-refundable award ticket had to be abandoned because my wife’s wallet and passport were stolen in Belgrade. The rest of our trip was completely derailed, and we never made it to Albania for my return flight.
