Lufthansa To Offer Flights To Most Destinations At Reduced Frequency

Lufthansa aims to expand its services to near the levels before the coronavirus pandemic, despite continuing restrictions on travel, network planner Heiko Reitz said in a recently published interview, Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa) reported.

"We have decided that we will offer virtually all destinations by September," Reitz told the German business magazine Capital. All the former destinations around the world will be on offer, although initially not at the same frequency.

Reitz is head of a team that schedules the flights of Lufthansa itself, along with subsidiaries Austrian, Swiss, Brussels Airlines, and Eurowings. A number of tourist destinations have already been included in the summer program. The airline now aims to serve its lucrative business passengers.

A company spokesman said that schedules would initially be more flexible than previously on account of short-term changes in demand. Lufthansa remains well short of the passenger numbers recorded before the pandemic.
