While ground services are roughly the same as Economy, Lufthansa has aimed to make the Premium Economy experience in the air an upgrade over economy in many ways–a larger, more comfortable seat with more recline, comfier pillows and blankets, an amenity kit, and upgraded meals are all part of the Premium Economy ...

Yes, Lufthansa typically provides blankets and pillows to all Economy Class passengers on long-haul international flights (such as transcontinental routes). In 2026, for shorter European domestic or regional flights, blankets are generally not provided in Economy unless requested for medical reasons or special circumstances, as these flights are treated similarly to "commuter" services. For those seeking extra comfort on long-haul journeys, Lufthansa offers a "Sleeper's Row" upgrade at check-in, which provides an entire row of three to four seats along with a premium pillow, a thicker blanket, and a mattress topper. This service aims to bridge the gap between Economy and Premium Economy for a surcharge (usually between €159 and €229). Even in standard Economy, however, a lightweight blanket is a standard part of the long-haul amenity set, though the quality is significantly more basic than the plush bedding found in the Premium Economy or Business Class cabins.
