After receiving extensive feedback and inquiries about our Uptrip NFT analysis on the two-year anniversary, we’re diving deeper today to examine the offers and trades within the Miles & More app. In this article, we answer key questions: Which cards are available? Can trading rare Uptrip cards be profitable? And what should collectors watch out for when trading?
Over 7,000 Uptrip Collectible Cards on the Blockchain
There are now over 7,000 Uptrip collectible cards on the blockchain. We took the time to review and categorize them. While trading activity has been limited so far, there could still be opportunities for individual users to find a sweet spot.
The Most Common Uptrip Cards
Here’s a look at the most frequently appearing cards:
- Welcome: 672
- Lufthansa: 378
- Frankfurt: 238
- Miles & More Member: 207
- Munich: 202
- Travel ID: 191
- Eurowings: 185
- Birthday: 172
The prevalence of these standard cards isn’t surprising. Their current price ranges from €0.70 to €4. However, the number of NFTs actually listed for sale is relatively limited.
Rare Cards: Highlights for Uptrip Collectors
Beyond the standard cards, there’s a wide variety of rare ones. 78 cards exist in three copies or fewer, while 41 are unique, appearing only once on the blockchain. Some of the most intriguing rare cards include:
EZE-FRA: Representing the “LH Longest Flight,” though the card name seems to have been entered incorrectly during minting.
Abbotsford: Not an actual Lufthansa destination, likely created randomly during the Christmas event on December 24, 2024.
St. Petersburg: Similar to Abbotsford, a rare card representing a destination never – or not recently – served by Lufthansa.
Karlsruhe: A legitimate Eurowings destination, uncommon but not a one-of-a-kind rarity.
Airbus A318: Allegedly a Lufthansa Group flight, though our research indicates this plane was never used by Lufthansa. The referenced flight EW7753 on October 23, 2024, was operated by an A319.
Cessna 510: Appeared twice as a Eurowings flight NFT; origin unclear.
TravelId Member: Likely a minting typo, creating a unique glitch.
Boeing 747-200F: Retired by the late 1990s, yet it appears in the collection – raising questions about its inclusion.
Historical Uptrip Deals
There have been only a few notable historical trades:
- Only six deals on OpenSea exceeded $30 at the time.
- All these trades occurred over 1.5 years ago.
- The most expensive card was Cape Town, sold for around $40 on December 21, 2013.
- In the last 90 days, a few Uptrip NFTs changed hands for $25 each.
Conclusion: A NFT Collector’s Eden
Miles & More’s Uptrip NFTs present an exciting niche for collectors. Although trading activity has been modest recently, some rare cards offer potential long-term value. Whether the Uptrip market will see a revival remains uncertain – but for passionate collectors, keeping an eye on NFT marketplaces might just pay off.
