New addition to Lufthansa route network / Service will be
operated from Munich
Lufthansa is launching a new route to Rotterdam. From 1
October 2012, the twice-daily service will be operated from
Munich with a Lufthansa CityLine CRJ-900. "With this new
service we will offer our customers convenient connections
to the economic region centred around Rotterdam and The
Hague. These cities will also have direct links to other
destinations in Europe and worldwide via our Munich hub,"
says Thomas Klühr, Member of the Lufthansa German Airlines
Board, Munich & Direct Services.
Rotterdam, which has a population of 600,000, is the
second-largest city in the Netherlands and is the
world's third-largest port. The airport is also the
gateway to The Hague, the country's third-largest city.
Lufthansa's new service will connect this strong
economic region via Munich to 70 further destinations in
Europe and worldwide.
Round-trip flights from Munich to Rotterdam can be booked
now for as little as 99 euros. This fare applies in Economy
Class and is inclusive of all taxes, fees and the Lufthansa
Ticket Service Charge for online bookings made through
www.lufthansa.com. Miles & More members can earn miles on
these flights. More information about the new direct
connection is available on the Lufthansa website.
Reservations can be made online or via the Lufthansa Call
Center on 01805 805 805 (€0.14/min). Customers can also
book their flights through Lufthansa travel agency partners
or at Lufthansa sales counters at airports.
