Lufthansa introduces Buenos Aires link
21 Jun 2007
German airline Lufthansa has revealed that it intends to expand its service to South America.
The carrier will begin providing additional flights to the region from 28 October, when the winter timetable comes into effect.
Lufthansa will lay on five additional flights per week from Frankfurt to Buenos Aires, bringing back a direct route to Argentina.
The airline says that it has arranged its timetable so that it is convenient for passengers to fly to Buenos Aires and then catch another flight to Sao Paolo, Brazil.
'Our customers have expressed a wish for this connection and I am delighted that we are able to offer it again,' said Karl Ulrich Garnadt, a member of the Board of Lufthansa Passenger Airlines.
'Overall, South America is showing strong, dynamic growth and many large German and European companies have branches there, particularly in Buenos Aires.
'At the same time, this is a clear sign that we aim to further expand our operations also from our Frankfurt hub,' he added.
