The airline Flyone will launch a new direct connection between Cologne/Bonn Airport and Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, starting March 31, 2025. The flights will operate twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays. This expands Cologne/Bonn Airport's offering of international connections to the capital.
The flights depart from Cologne/Bonn at 20 p.m., with return flights from Yerevan on the same weekdays. The flight time is approximately five hours. The aircraft used is an Airbus A320, which can carry up to 180 passengers. According to Thilo Schmid, CEO of Cologne/Bonn Airport, the service is aimed at both passengers visiting family members and travelers who want to explore Armenia as a travel destination.
Yerevan is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. Located at the foot of Mount Ararat, the city is the political, economic, and cultural center of Armenia. Its most famous sights include the Cascade, offering panoramic views of the city, the Erebuni Fortress dating back to 782 BC, and numerous museums and historical buildings.
Flyone Armenia, which operates the route, is a subsidiary of the Moldovan airline Flyone and was founded in 2021. The airline specializes in connections between Armenia and European destinations. With the new route, Cologne/Bonn Airport is further expanding its route network in Eastern Europe.
