Lufthansa plans to offer 5.7 per cent more seating capacity on its global flight network for the winter season, boosted by increases on US and Asian routes.
Lufthansa will lift available capacity on international routes by 6.5 per cent and on European services by four per cent in the winter schedule, which runs from October 28 to March 29, it said on Friday.
"We are enlarging our long-haul route network, with the focus on America and Asia," said Karl Ulrich Garnadt, board member of Lufthansa's passenger airline.
"In Europe, we are further expanding our route network to Eastern Europe and simultaneously raising frequencies on several routes to business destinations," he added. The winter timetable will include 13,272 scheduled flights, 2.9 per cent more than in the year-earlier period, Lufthansa said, with new routes planned to Orlando, Karachi and Lahore.
