In the 2023/24 winter flight schedule, the Lufthansa subsidiary Eurowings is increasing its offering from the German airports of Nuremberg and Hanover. Among other things, they want to add new flight connections to the Canary Islands and Egypt. An aircraft is also initially stationed at both airports.
According to the airline, in winter 2023/24 there will be new flights from Nuremberg to Gran Canaria, Hurghada and Marsa Alam as well as Mallorca. Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Hurghada, Pristina and Mallorca are also to be headed for from Hanover. The carrier intends to take further expansion steps in the 2024 summer flight schedule.
For example: From Nuremberg you fly to Heraklion three times a week. The new Greek destinations of Preveza and Rhodes are served twice a week. Eurowings flies 14 times a week from Nuremberg to the Balearic island of Mallorca. In addition to two weekly flights to the Portuguese Faro and the new destination Malaga (four times a week), there is a clear focus on Italy from Hanover: with Rome (four times a week), Catania and Naples (three times a week), Bari, Olbia and Lamezia Terme (each twice weekly) Eurowings ensures a good and direct connection to one of the most popular holiday destinations in northern Germany. The summer offer from Lower Saxony's most important airport is supplemented with flights to Thessaloniki (twice a week), 14 weekly connections to Mallorca and a connection to Pristina (once a week).
The expansion of the route network means that one aircraft each will be stationed in Nuremberg and Hanover over the winter of 2023/24. In the summer of 2024, the future base in Lower Saxony is to be supplemented by a second machine. In Nuremberg it should - according to the current state of affairs - remain with an Airbus jet.
"We fundamentally changed Eurowings out of the crisis and developed it into Germany's largest holiday airline," said Eurowings CEO Jens Bischof. “We will now expand this position in a targeted manner and also strengthen ourselves very significantly at Nuremberg and Hanover airports. With our program of attractive direct flights, we ensure better connections from Lower Saxony and northern Bavaria, especially to the most popular sunny destinations in southern Europe.”
