I hope it happens. I think it is more SD's airport authority is trying to woo lufthansa, not so much the other way around. Lufthansa is concerned about the failed attempt of British Airways SD-London flight that was cancelled. The airport authority is trying to establish that since lufthansa is a star-alliance member the flights would have united airlines numbers making them exempt from the rule that government agencies must use domestic carriers. Since SD has alot of military that could open the market to significant passengers. We'll see if it works. I really think it would work, every time I fly Lufthansa from SD (via codeshare United) the codeshare flight is completely full with people connecting to Frankfurt
