Lufthansa Group to resume 115 weekly services in June

From June 15, the Lufthansa Group Airlines will resume services from major UK and Ireland ports with 115 weekly frequencies in total, 11 of which departing from Dublin.

The Lufthansa Group is expanding their services in the second half of June focussing on summer destinations and aims to make as many tourist destinations as possible accessible for holidaymakers, in addition to business travellers, thus expanding the European and intercontinental network.

Announcing eight new routes from five hubs across the UK and Ireland in addition to an increase in frequencies from both London Heathrow and Dublin, the significantly expanded June schedule completes the Lufthansa Group's ambitious plan to reinstate services to 130 destinations by the end of the month. 

Andreas K?ster, senior director sales UK, Ireland and Iceland for the Lufthansa Group carriers, said: ?By resuming a part of our schedule in June, the Lufthansa Group is building up mobility by connecting the UK and Ireland again to our worldwide network. This is an important contribution to support the restart of industry and commerce, but also the tourism sector- both essential for the UK and Irish economy.?

With 2,000 weekly connections to more than 130 destinations worldwide, the variety of travel opportunities available to all Lufthansa Group travellers will be greatly extended with immediate effect, subject to any travel restrictions. The additional flights for the second half of June have been implemented in the booking systems from May 28. 

In addition, 34 long-haul destinations are now also available again in the Lufthansa Group airlines' flight schedules. In total, the airlines now offer around 112 weekly connections to destinations outside Europe. The flight schedules of the Lufthansa Group's airlines are closely coordinated, enabling reliable connectivity to European and intercontinental destinations via the hubs.
