Bangalore:
The Lufthansa Group launched a direct service from Bengaluru to Munich, the capital of Bavaria in Germany, on November 4. Bengaluru was chosen as the first destination on the Lufthansa Group network following the COVID-19 crisis.
“After Delhi and Mumbai, Bengaluru is the third Indian city with a direct connection for travelers via Lufthansa’s 5-star hub in Munich,” the group said in a statement.
The group said it will operate 64 weekly frequencies between India and Europe by January 2024.
“This Bengaluru-Munich service represents Lufthansa’s strong commitment to the Indian market as the Lufthansa Group’s capacity to India now exceeds pre-COVID-19 levels,” the report said.
According to Lufthansa Group Senior Director – South Asia, George Ettiyil: “We have been investing in India for over 90 years and when we were looking for our first new APAC destination since the pandemic, Bengaluru was a natural fit.”
Currently, Lufthansa guests fly three times a week and can enjoy their experience on one of the most modern and economical long-haul aircraft, the Airbus A350-900, the statement said.
