Lufthansa, Aegean announce code share flights from Cyprus

Lufthansa German Airlines and Aegean Airlines have underlined their cooperation and the successful introduction of code share flights from Cyprus.

The two airlines began code-share operation of flights within Greece and additional flights to and from Larnaca and other European destinations with the start of the winter timetable 2005/2006.

Speaking at a press conference Tuesday, Eftihios Vasilakis, Vice President of Aegean Airlines said “passengers from Cyprus find a wider range of flight options which allows them increased flexibility for their travel planning”.

Michael Suesser, Lufthansa General Manager for Greece and Cyprus, stressed that “the three daily Aegean pairs between Larnaca and Athens add perfectly to the existing Lufthansa flights from Cyprus to Frankfurt”.

He further said the “possibilities to combine Lufthansa and Aegean flights in one or both directions, the option to make a stopover in Athens on the way out or in now offer our passengers a wide range of options for their trips to Germany, Europe, North America and many more destinations around the world”.

A total of 82 daily flights within Greece as well as to Larnaca, Munich, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Brussels, Hamburg, Hannover, Berlin and Paris are operated as code-share flights.
