Lufthansa is further extending its route network in the direction of Eastern Europe. As of the beginning of June 2005, Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, the Armenian capital of Yerevan as well as Timisoara in Romanian Transylvania will be added to the Lufthansa timetable. The three destinations will be served from Munich.
The introduction of the new services takes into account the above-average market growth in Eastern Europe and the corresponding potential in these markets.
As of 2 June, Yerevan will be served on Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays by an Airbus A319 or A320. The flight will depart from Munich at 21.10 hrs. The return flight will leave Yerevan on Monday, Tuesday and Friday at 4.50 hrs. As approximately half of the total of around 8 million Armenians live abroad, the Armenians are characteristically frequent travellers. The country`s main branches of industry are mining, IT and real estate.
Thanks to its geographical proximity and good traffic connections with the EU as well as a good infrastructure, Timisoara in Romanian Transylvania is registering the highest investment growth of European companies in Europe. As of 1st June, Lufthansa will be flying six times a week, from Monday to Saturday, from Munich to Timisoara with a Canadair regional jet, departing at 10.10 hrs. The return flights will leave Timisoara at 13.25 hrs.
As of 5th June, Lufthansa will fly with an A 319 to Tbilisi in Georgia on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 21.10 hrs. The return flights are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 3.55 hrs.
