Due to the increasing demand, Munich Airport will open Terminal 1 again on June 23, 2021. All airlines that were temporarily relocated to Terminal 2 will return to Terminal 1 - only Eurowings will temporarily remain in Terminal 2.
The falling incidence values and the advancing vaccination campaign, as well as the associated relief in travel, have stimulated air traffic at the MUC. At the end of the Whitsun holidays last Sunday, the airport recorded the largest volume of traffic in nine months with around 400 flights and 36.000 passengers.
Lufthansa will gradually expand its long-haul service from Munich again. The airline will resume its North American routes to Boston, New York (JFK), Charlotte and Vancouver in July. Lufthansa is currently heading to five long-haul destinations from Munich Airport: Newark, Chicago, Los Angeles, Denver and Seoul.
With Tokyo, Washington, Shanghai and Osaka, four further long-haul destinations will return to Lufthansa’s Munich flight schedule in August. Lufthansa will then offer a total of 13 long-haul destinations from Munich with Airbus A350 aircraft. United Airlines has resumed its scheduled service to San Francisco and will increase its routes to Washington and Chicago to one daily connection each in June. From the beginning of July, United will also resume flights from Munich to Newark.
