From Leipzig/Halle and Dresden Airports, fewer destinations and countries will be served this summer than last year. According to Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG, the new summer flight schedule at Leipzig/Halle will offer 29 destinations in 13 countries. Last year, there were 33 destinations in 16 countries. From Dresden, there will be flights to 14 destinations in seven countries. Last year, there were 22 destinations in twelve countries.
Ryanair and Lufthansa have canceled connections
"Tour operators react very quickly when certain destinations do not work," explained Group spokesperson Uwe Schuhart. There is always a certain fluctuation in destinations. Overall, the recovery after the coronavirus pandemic has been slow, especially in comparison to other European countries. In addition, the Irish low-cost airline Ryanair had already announced last October that it would continue to withdraw from Germany. Dresden and Leipzig, among others, will no longer be served. Lufthansa also canceled its connection from Leipzig/Halle to Munich.
