Booking an international flight to Greece. It says it’s operated by Lufthansa but can also be booked through United. Is there a pro/con to either in terms of seating, baggage or cancellations?

United is no good.

Calculate the PQPs you can earn. In some cases, you earn more purchasing with the United partner (mileage divided by 5 for a preferred partner like Lufthansa multiplied by a percentage based on fare class) than via United (price of the flight).

Seating selection can be restricted for any flight that is operated by another airline. Usually that can be resolved by calling their helpline. European airlines tend to be a bit stingier with baggage, so check the rules of each. Lufthansa is also much more likely to willingly give you EU-mandated compensation for any delays or cancellations.

Business or eco?
Same rules as United, if you book via United.
Business long haul Lufthansa is def a step up compared to the Polaris United product. Just flew both the last weeks and prefer Lufthansa. Also the lounges are nicer and you can take a shower after arriving in eg Frankfurt

Agree direct with Lufthansa - ideally premium eco

PQP

United and Lufthansa are in Star Alliance. There are no United overseas flights, Lufthansa and other European airlines usually operate those flights. On the ticket would say United Airlines operated by Lufthansa.

United literally has the most international flights of any US carrier lol.
