ASMALLWORLD has brought back its Prestige membership promotion with an increased number of Lufthansa Miles&More miles + discount for purchases made until December 31, 2024.
You can sign up for the Prestige membership for EUR 4,950, which comes with 300,000 Miles&More miles (1.65 euro cents per mile).
You can access this offer on ASMALLWORLD’s website here.
Package Components:
You get Hilton Honors Gold for 6 months with an option to extend by 12 months + get Diamond by staying 12 nights within 120 days. The Priority Pass comes with 8 included visits:
Your membership includes 8 complimentary lounge visits, which can be used flexibly for your own lounge visits, as well as for any accompanying guests you may bring with you on your travels.
The Hilton status also has the option to activate a status challenge for Gold & Diamond to extend the validity.
As part of this offer, you can also take on a status challenge: Stay 12 nights at Hilton hotels within the first 120 days, and you’ll be upgraded to Hilton Honors Diamond status for a full year!
All ASMALLWORLD Prestige Benefits:
- 300,000 Miles & More award miles – 20% more than the usual 250,000
- Hilton Honors Gold status (6 months w/ Diamond status challenge)
- GHA DISCOVERY Titanium status (1 year)
- Jumeirah One Gold status (1 year)
- Priority Pass airport lounge access with 8 included visits (1 year)
- SIXT Platinum status (1 year)
- The World’s Finest Clubs Membership
- ASMALLWORLD Membership (1 year)
Obviously, the main pull here is the 300,000 Miles&More miles. These will be credited to the M&M account post purchase.
Under this offer, one mile costs 1.65 EUR cents. It’s not a horrible offer, but you can get them cheaper by buying mileage bundles when they are back with a substantial discount.

Conclusion
You are essentially paying €4,950 for 300,000 Miles&More miles (1.65 Euro cents each), which you could use for two to three first-class one-way tickets or four to five business-class ones.
The Priority Pass could be valuable for those who don’t have one yet if 8 visits are enough. The Sixt Platinum status comes as a benefit with many programs. The Global Hotel Alliance (GHA) Titanium status can be helpful.
The company has previously admitted on its financials that the main selling point of the “Prestige” membership is the airline miles associated with it. The other package components do have value, but many of us already have some or most of them or don’t need them.
I would only consider purchasing this if I don’t have another way of acquiring Lufthansa Miles&More miles. These are best used for business or first-class trips between costly city pairs.
