MUNICH- German flag carrier Lufthansa (LH) is expanding its flight offerings from Munich (MUC) and Frankfurt (FRA) to include four new European destinations this summer.
Lufthansa City Airlines (CL), the latest addition to the esteemed Lufthansa Group (LH), is also set to take flight in the upcoming summer of 2024, and the initial destinations have been officially announced.
Lufthansa New European Destinations
The four new European destinations are as follows:
- Trondheim, Norway: Starting from April 28, Lufthansa will operate twice a week from Munich to Trondheim, the country’s third-largest city, making it an ideal destination for an extended weekend in the northern region.
- Nantes, France: Commencing April 28, Nantes, situated at the Loire estuary with a rich history, will be served three times a week from Munich. This city is also a convenient gateway to Bretagne and the Atlantic coast. This new route complements the existing connection from Frankfurt.
- Oulu, Finland: The largest city in northern Finland and the northernmost major city in the EU will now have twice-weekly connections from Munich during the summer. Oulu has already proven to be a popular Lufthansa destination this winter.
- Chișinău, Republic of Moldova: Starting from April 29, Lufthansa will operate five flights a week from Frankfurt to Chișinău, the capital of the Republic of Moldova, home to over 500,000 inhabitants.
City Airlines New Destinations
Commencing its operations from Munich, the airline will serve key routes to Berlin, Hamburg, Bremen, Düsseldorf, Cologne, and Hanover. Furthermore, it will serve the following international destinations, including Birmingham, Bordeaux, and Manchester.
As part of its strategic expansion, Lufthansa City Airlines plans to gradually extend its network, unveiling additional European destinations in the following months.
With a commitment to the airline’s future, the Lufthansa Group has placed an order for 40 Airbus A220-300 aircraft. Subsequently, the Munich-based carrier has secured an additional 20 purchase options.
This move underscores the group’s dedication to reinforcing its competitive edge in the short-haul sector, a pivotal element in fortifying market presence and supporting the growth of Lufthansa’s long-haul routes.
The newly introduced Lufthansa City livery has already adorned the first two of the four Airbus A319 aircraft scheduled for deployment this year.
