This will bring the group’s total Romanian traffic to 178 flights, from five cities.
Of the total number of passengers carried by the group in 2011, over 680,000 traveled on Lufthansa. The airline succeeded in increasing its market share and occupancy rate, said Patrick Artiel, general manager for Romania and Moldova.
Lufthansa will operate four weekly Bucharest-Berlin flights starting June 4, and will bring the number of Munich-Sibiu flights to two per week starting March 25. Swiss will offer two daily Bucharest-Zurich flights as of the same date.
The Lufthansa group includes Lufthansa, bmi, Germanwings, Austrian Airlines and Swiss International Air Lines. The group operates in 82 countries and carried 106.3 million passengers last year, up 7.5% from 2010.
