Lufthansa finalises EX-YU summer operations
Germany’s national airline, Lufthansa, as one of the largest foreign flag carriers in the former Yugoslavia, has scheduled up to 130 weekly flights to the region during the peak summer period, with the company set to restore a number of routes which have been suspended since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic in March 2020. The airline will maintain the most flights out of its two hubs in Frankfurt and Munich to Croatia, with services from both cities to Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik, Rijeka, Zadar and Pula. Notably, the airline will restore operations between Munich and Croatia’s capital on May 2 with one daily flight scheduled throughout the summer.
Lufthansa will also ramp up its services to Serbia. The airline will be increasing operations to three daily flights between Munich and Belgrade, complementing its double daily Frankfurt service. In Ljubljana, the carrier will resume flights from the Bavarian capital on May 2 with daily flights planned, alongside its double daily service from Frankfurt. Lufthansa will continue to serve Sarajevo out of Frankfurt, after making the switch from Munich during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. Daily services will be maintained between the two cities. Finally, the airline will resume its seasonal operations to Tivat from both Frankfurt and Munich starting May 15 and June 4 respectively.

Lufthansa’s mainline operations will complement those from the remainder of the airline group which includes Austrian Airlines, Swiss, Brussels Airlines and Eurowings. From its main hubs, Lufthansa’s operations to the former Yugoslavia will be close to reaching pre-pandemic 2019 levels. “We are very certain that air traffic will experience a strong upswing this year. People want to travel. They seek and need personal contact - especially after two years of the pandemic and the associated social restrictions. The pent-up demand for leisure and business travel was already significantly noticeable in 2021 - and this trend is set to intensify in 2022. Last year was a challenging one for the Lufthansa Group and its employees. And 2022 also begins with developments that worry us as citizens of this continent”, Lufthansa said. Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the war in Ukraine, frequencies are subject to change.
