In 2012, Lufthansa carried 770,000 passengers between Romania and hubs in Germany (Frankfurt, Munich, Dusseldorf and Berlin).

Lufthansa general manager for Central and Eastern Europe, Ofer Kisch, said the evolution on the Romanian market was due to new flight routes and an occupancy rate above average.

Last year, Lufthansa introduced new flights on the Bucharest- Berlin route, whose frequency rose from four to six flights per week. In March 2012, SWISS Air increased the frequency of Bucharest – Zurich flights to two per day.

Lufthansa and its partners carried over 103 million passengers worldwide in 2012.
