Lufthansa 💸
If you're wondering what to do in Curaçao, this guide will introduce you to eco-conscious adventures beyond the typical tourist plan.
The island welcomed over 500 k stay-over visitors and 800 k cruise tourists last year, according to the Curaçao Tourist Board's 2024 annual report. This is a good contribution to the local economy, but it represents a major challenge for sustainability.
The airline is working closely with other carriers that are also participating in the Black Friday deals. SWISS, Austrian Airlines, and Brussels Airlines are taking part in the Black Friday promotion.
Travel ID holders will have access to a pre-sale a couple of days before Black Friday. It is believed to begin on November 25th, and will be open to the general public on November 28th.
While Lufthansa isn't guaranteeing the best fares of the year for this period, it is promising good prices on some international routes to Europe. Transatlantic flights could see discounts of between 15% and 30%. Business and Class fares may also be available.
It is recommended to register for Travel ID and monitor the airline's official website days before the big date.
