Lufthansa to Increase Capacity Between Frankfurt and Liverpool Next Summer

The capacity between Frankfurt and Liverpool John Lennon airport will increase by 50% next summer with Lufthansa.

After the service is launched on 2nd May, frequency on the route to the German carrier’s primary hub will increase to six flights per week.

With the enhanced timetable, travelers will have more access to international connections through Frankfurt to places like Dubai, New York, Chicago, and San Francisco.

John Irving, the director-general of Liverpool Airport, said: “This is tremendous news not just for the airport but for the city region and beyond, as this will enable passengers to easily travel to more global destinations via Frankfurt with the benefit of starting their journey from Liverpool.

“It is also good news for the region’s visitor economy, further opening up access for visitors to the Liverpool City Region, the north-west and North Wales and great timing ahead of the forthcoming Eurovision Song Contest.”

Lufthansa’s senior director sales northern Europe, Heinrich Lange, added: “This new Lufthansa connection from Liverpool to Frankfurt has already enjoyed a very good level of demand in its first year and Liverpool has also proved popular as a new destination.

“For next summer we are now doubling our number of flights to six per week, increasing our flexibility as passengers will have more flight connections available to them via our Frankfurt hub. Liverpool will see even more incoming guests as well.”
