From next June, Lufthansa will be canceling some of its flights from Leipzig/Halle and Dresden airports. Specifically, there will be one less connection per day between Frankfurt and the two airports, a spokesperson for the Group confirmed to the German Press Agency in Dresden. Leipziger Volkszeitung" and "Sächsische Zeitung" had previously reported this. Once the plans have been implemented, there will still be three daily connections to Frankfurt at each airport. The connection from Munich to Dresden will also remain unchanged. Affected customers will be notified by email if their flight is affected by the cancellations.
The cuts are part of an overall package that aims to "remove uneconomical flights from the offer", the statement continues. Short-haul flights within Lufthansa CityLine's European network are affected. The background to this is increased kerosene costs, "costs of this year's industrial action" and high location costs.
