Germania will carry out new flights from Nuremberg to Crete and Kos in 2018 and will be marking the start of the summer season 2018 by basing three aircraft at Nuremberg and increasing the seating capacity, routesonline.com reports and adds:
For the first time the airline, with its distinctive green and white livery, will also be operating an Airbus A321 during the summer in Nuremberg. Germania is increasing the number of its weekly departures from 30 to 45, thereby strengthening its position at Albrecht Dürer Airport.
According to the current schedule, the Airbus A321 with 215 seats will be flying to Palma de Mallorca on a daily basis. Twice a week the aircraft will also be used on the new routes to Heraklion/Crete and Kos as well as on the established routes to Tenerife and Gran Canaria. New additions to the programme include four weekly flights to Antalya in Turkey. Germania is the only German airline to operate this route from Nuremberg and offers family-friendly midday departures. The Bulgarian destinations of Burgas and Varna are also being opened with three weekly connections in summer.
In general, the current routes are being maintained, with minor changes in frequency or flight times. The flights to Athens have been moved to Monday and Friday during the week. This arrangement makes short breaks possible and also improves travel options for flights to smaller Greek islands with Germania’s partner Sky Express. Non-stop flights from Nuremberg to Tel Aviv will also be available for the first time in summer 2018, as well flights to Hurghada.
The airline began to operate flights from Nuremberg in the 2016/17 winter season. By the end of April this year around 40,000 passengers had been welcomed on board, and since then bookings have been rising steadily.
