In the coming summer flight schedules, Lufthansa is serving an almost unchanged number of destinations with virtually the same number of flights as in the previous year. Seating capacity will be slightly higher. On average, Lufthansa will be operating 12,853 flights weekly in the summer schedules compared with 12,860 last time round.
Despite a smaller fleet, available seating capacity is higher than the year-earlier level following successive fleet renewal and the replacement of older aircraft by larger types. This effect is evident in both the continental and intercontinental fleet. Capacity overall (available seat-kilometres) is up year-on-year by 3.6 per cent. Included in the calculation are the planned services with the Airbus A380 , which is to begin scheduled flights with Lufthansa from June this year.
