Lufthansa announce Frankfurt flights
06.11.07
Lufthansa has announced that it will launch flights between Bristol Airport and its base in Frankfurt from next spring. The new 3 times-a-day service (flights leaving Bristol at 06:20, 16:15 and 21:30) will begin on March 30 to coincide with the start of the airline's summer 2008 schedule.
The German flag carrier will offer 94 seats in two classes on each of the return flights. The services have been timed to enable passengers to pick up quick onward connections to Lufthansa's international network from its Frankfurt hub.
Tony Hallwood, aviation director at Bristol Airport, said: 'As well as providing a route to Germany's busy financial capital, the flights will also offer onward connections to central and eastern Europe, the Middle East, Far East, Australasia, USA, Canada and South America. This new service will further reduce the need for passengers in the Southwest to make road or rail journeys to Heathrow.'
Lufthansa's currently offers 13,272 flights each week to 188 destinations in 79 countries. One way fares from Bristol to Frankfurt are from £39, inclusive of all taxes and charges. To check fares and availability visit www.lufthansa.com.
