Lufthansa has announced the deployment of the Boeing 787-9 on routes to the United States and Canada from this Summer.
Environmentally friendly: The Dreamliner offers 30% better fuel efficiency than the aircraft is replaces
From 26 March, Lufthansa’s newest aircraft, the Boeing 787-9, is heading to further North American destinations starting with the summer flight schedule as of 26 March.
The 787-9 is a wide-body, twin-engine aircraft manufactured by Boeing and operated by Lufthansa, the German airline. It is part of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner family and usually accommodates approximately 290 passengers in a two-cabin configuration (business and economy class). The 787-9 is known for its fuel efficiency and advanced technology, including a quieter cabin, larger windows, and improved air quality systems.
The Dreamliner will fly six times a week from Frankfurt to Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas. Lufthansa will offer four weekly flights to Montreal, Canada and ramp this up on 1 May to daily flights. Also early in May, Lufthansa will fly its Dreamliner daily to Denver, Colorado, three times weekly to Austin, Texas and on 13 February begin serving Detroit, Michigan.
Since October last year the Dreamliner has flown daily to Newark.
Currently, Lufthansa operates three Boeing 787-9s. Two additional Dreamliners will be delivered shortly.
The Boeing 787-9 offers passengers a much improved travel experience.
The cabin is very quiet and depending on the time of day, is lit by an innovative lighting system. The higher entrance area gives a pleasant feeling of more space and the large windows offer the opportunity for better viewing or can be dimmed at the touch of a button.
Business Class guests enjoy improved seating with, among other things, direct aisle access.
The state of the art long-haul Dreamliner is one of the most fuel efficient and environmentally friendly long-haul Lufthansa aircraft. On average, it consumes 2.5 litres of kerosene per passenger per 100 kilometers flown or 30% less than aircraft of the preceding generation.
By 2027, Lufthansa Group will take delivery a total of 32 new Boeing 787-9s.

London Gatwick Airport has announced a new connection from April 2023, linking two of the world’s biggest financial hubs, as Lufthansa launches a double daily service to Frankfurt, Germany.
From 23 April 2023, the German flag carrier will operate twice daily between the UK’s capital and Germany’s financial capital, home of the European Central Bank.
Frankfurt is one of the largest global hubs of passenger and cargo traffic. It is currently the fifth busiest European airport and seventh busiest in the world for international passengers.
The new route will therefore also offer fantastic onward connectivity for passengers, including to other key financial hubs such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, Singapore, Beijing and Shanghai, among many other destinations across North and South America, Africa and Asia.
Stewart Wingate, Chief Executive Officer, Gatwick Airport said: “
We are delighted to welcome Lufthansa back to Gatwick Airport next year, providing passengers across London and the south-east with a vital connection to Frankfurt.
The city is not only a hugely important financial hub, but offers excellent onward connectivity and opportunities. It’s also a great place for tourists too, with fantastic museums and architecture.
Heinrich Lange, Senior Director Sales Northern Europe, Lufthansa Group Airlines said: “
Lufthansa is happy to operate to London Gatwick next summer to connect this major airport with our hub in Frankfurt. We come closer to our customers in the south of London and will ease the access to our global network. We are glad to have Gatwick as our third London airport served in our timetable.
Frankfurt is one of a number of new routes expected to be announced by London Gatwick for the new year.

June marks Pride Month – we have taken a look at how some airlines are marking the celebration
Lufthansa
Lovehansa: June 2022’s ‘Lovehansa’ livery
To mark Pride Month, Lufthansa is taking off with a very special aircraft to destinations throughout Europe.
The Airbus A320neo with the registration D-AINY will become “Lovehansa” for the next six months.
On the outside of the aircraft, the Lufthansa livery has been replaced by a specially-designed “Lovehansa” marque, painted in the colours of the rainbow.
The welcome panel at the entrance will also have a special rainbow design.
Rainbow seats: onboard the Lovehansa
In addition, when looking out of the aircraft window, hearts in rainbow colours can be seen on the winglets. The first flight of the “Lovehansa” took place on 10 June to Billund in Denmark (LH842).
Lufthansa claims it is ‘a company that stands for openness, diversity and understanding’. And, with the “Lovehansa” special livery, ‘the company is sending another clear signal and making this important part of its corporate culture prominent and visible to the outside world’.
Virgin Atlantic
A three-year sponsorship of Manchester Pride – the UK’s largest Pride event – is probably the most public celebration of the LGBT+ community from Virgin Atlantic.
Pride: Manchester Pride’s CEO, Mark Fletcher (middle), with crew announces Virgin Atlantic’s three-year headline sponsorship of the festival
Virgin Atlantic are also the first-ever sponsor, in a ten-year agreement, of the Attitude Awards.
In 2020 the airline entered a multiyear partnership with Open for Business, launching the Caribbean Local Influencer Program to champion the business rationale for LGBTQ+ inclusion across the islands. The two-phased approach to the partnership with Open for Business consists of a research phase to understand business and socioeconomic impact of excluding the LGBTQ+ community, and a second phase to build a network of business leaders and civil society, using the research to advance LGBTQ+ rights and inclusion.
But on an individual level, Chief Commercial Officer Juha Jarvinen, has written eloquently and from the heart about his experiences in the corporate world, in a blog piece:
In the workplace, organisations that will thrive in the future are those which put inclusivity at the heart of their strategy. At Virgin Atlantic, we live by our purpose – everyone can take on the world – and we take inclusion and diversity seriously. To me, it’s so important that we foster a culture of belonging and actively encourage every single one of our people to be themselves at work every day. After years of not wanting to divulge my sexuality at work or in business networks, joining this airline in 2019 was a breath of fresh air. About one month into my role, I was asked to share an introductory post on our internal communications platform, Workplace, and it was the first time in my career that I’d felt comfortable and proud sharing exactly who I was: ‘Juha, a Finnish-born 43-year old with a love of travel, running & hot yoga, and lastly – but most importantly – happily married to my husband, Jussi’.
United
United Airlines ‘recognise, embrace and celebrate the differences that make our customers and employees unique’.
EQUAL: United’s inclusive business resource group that benefits lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and ally coworkers.
United also claim to be ‘committed to creating an inclusive work environment while contributing to the diverse communities we serve. As a part of this mission, we believe it’s important to support the LGBTQ+ community by upholding inclusive policies and practices, partnering with LGBTQ+ organisations, and hosting programmes and engagement events to honour the LGBTQ+ community’.
United maintain sponsorships of, and relationships with, several organisations:
JetBlue is commemorating Pride Month with a series of special events and support for various LGBTQ+ organisations and partners throughout the month of June… and beyond.
Icema Gibbs, vice president CSR and DEI, JetBlue said,
At JetBlue, we believe the LGBTQ+ community should be supported year round, beyond Pride month, and we will continue to stand for the right for every crewmember and customer to feel safe and valued—while ensuring we are marching towards a more equal, inclusive and just world.
Gender-inclusive: JetBlue’s uniform and hair and makeup policy offers crewmembers a combination of uniform pieces, rather than pre-selected items based on binary gender terms.
JetBlue is a long-time supporter of The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative (SIGBI), which leverages the historic significance of the New York City LGBTQ+ landmark to help other communities that don’t have the same LGBTQ+ resources or support.
The airline continues to serve as the official airline of The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center – known locally as The Center. Since 1983, The Center has been supporting, fostering and celebrating the LGBTQ+ community of New York City and empowers people to lead healthy, successful lives.
And last year, JetBlue rolled out ‘a new uniform policy with a vast range of apparel and hair and makeup preferences for all crewmembers, regardless of race/ethnicity, gender, age and body type’. By adopting a gender-inclusive program, JetBlue ensures that all crewmembers, regardless of gender identity, can feel represented.
Cape Air
Cape Air, is an airline headquartered at Barnstable Municipal Airport in Hyannis, Massachusetts, operating scheduled passenger services in the Northeast, the Caribbean, Midwest, and Eastern Montana.

The airline introduced a Pride-themed plane at a media event hosted at Provincetown Municipal Airport.
Linda Markham, Cape Air CEO said
Putting a Pride flag not only on the wings, but on the tail of the plane means so much to us because we’re such a diverse organisation and we really want to celebrate inclusivity and equality.
American Airlines
#PrideMonth reminds us to celebrate the love and diversity that makes our world a better place! We’re committed to creating a safe and equitable environment for our LGBTQ+ team members and customers. On behalf of our #AATeam, we hope you have a safe and happy #PrideMonth. pic.twitter.com/bFNn8JC0ks
We’ll be flying with Pride throughout the summer and beyond, joining our diverse crew at some of Europe’s biggest Pride marches, and sharing travel tips for our favourite LGBTQ+ friendly destinations?

Twenty five years ago, Frankie Dettori achieved the remarkable feat of riding seven out of seven winners at British Champions’ Day at Ascot Racecourse.
Dettori’s achievement – winning aboard Wall Street, Diffident, Mark of Esteem, Decorated Hero, Fatefully, Lochangel and Fujiyama Crest – became known as The Magnificent Seven.
And now, to help Ascot Racecourse and Frankie Dettori to celebrate the quarter century anniversary, we have asked our clients, partners, colleagues and friends to tell us their favourite airlines and airports, in order to produce our own Magnificent Seven.
Here’s what they came up with…
Magnificent Seven airlines
British Airways, easyJet, Lufthansa, Qantas, Qatar Airways, SAS, Swiss
And some selected comments about these airlines
British Airways “I like to travel with British Airways personally especially for long flights as I find them more comfortable and they provide decent food and drinks”.
easyJet “Of course low-cost is what it is, but I believe they are a cut above the rest in how you are treated, and how fair and clear they are about their policies and extra charges. With most of the other low-cost carriers, I always get the feeling that they are trying to somehow trick you into spending extra at every single step, be it online check in, or lack thereof, constantly changing cabin bag size limits, etc, but easyJet are much more upfront about everything, and you know where you stand”.
Lufthansa “Lufthansa offers everything I need for business trips and seems to get better and better every year”.
Qantas “Modern cabins, good schedules, but above all, their people are amazing throughout, from check in to baggage reclaim through, of course their cabin crew. I´ve flown both business and economy with them, and they treat you like a star all the way, every time, every class of service”.
Qatar Airways “Long haul I like Qatar Airlines – definitely the best business class I have experienced. Only once been upgraded to first which was brilliant!”
SAS “Efficient. On time. The routes serve my purposes perfectly”.
Swiss “I have only ever had excellent services when flying on Swiss”.
Some of the other airlines mentioned in the favourite category include Virgin Atlantic, Ryanair and, pre-pandemic, Flybe.

Lufthansa Economy Class passengers on European flights can now choose from a range of high-quality “Onboard Delights.”
The culinary assortment is available on cross-border European flights with a duration of 60 minutes.
Based in Munich, dean&david is known for outstanding quality and a sense of responsibility. The company produces healthy food, high-quality ingredients and sustainable consumption. ‘Food that not only tastes good, but also feels good’.
At Lufthansa’s Frankfurt and Munich hubs, the dishes are prepared daily by the catering company, Gate Gourmet, all according to recipes from dean&david, a successful young gastronomy company.
Lufthansa is also expanding its long-standing cooperation with the coffee house, Dallmayr.
The traditional Munich-based company will supply the confectionery and patisserie specialties, as well as the hot beverages, for Onboard Delights.
The products on offer include a special Ethiopian coffee whereby the proceeds are linked to support various humanitarian projects in the Dano region .
In addition, there is a large selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as numerous snacks.
Fresh food is available from 5.50 euros, coffee and tea for 3 euros, soft drinks (500 ml) or beer (330 ml) for 3.50 euros. Small snacks are available from 2 euros. A water bottle and a ‘chocolate surprise’ will be served to guests free-of-charge.
The selection of fresh products is updated every three months. The service concept in Business Class remains unchanged. In order to meet hygiene requirements on board, payment will be made exclusively without cash.
With a tradition going back more than 300 years, Dallmayr is one of the best-known German brands of coffee.
Lufthansa claims:
[We place] a great amount of importance on sustainability.
The focus is on the consistent selection of food produced in a resource-saving manner and environmentally-friendly packaging materials.
For example, a large proportion of the fresh products are packaged in PaperWise material, made from agricultural waste material and produced using 100 percent renewable energy and is therefore CO2-neutral. By producing the fresh products in a way that is more in line with the demand, less unused food has to be disposed.

Around the world, airlines are beginning to increase the number and frequency of services, as the airline industry starts the fightback and paves the way to global economic recovery .
We’ve taken a look at what plans some of the world’s leading airlines have to bolster their schedules this month.
British Airways
Throughout August, British Airways is resuming flying to
more destinations, albeit with continued low frequencies while the impact of
Covid-19 remains felt across the globe.
In Europe flights will resume to the holiday destinations of
Bari, Bastia, Bodrum, Bordeaux, Catania, Figari, Frankfurt, Genoa, Kefalonia,
Lyon, Luxembourg, Malta, Paphos and Pula, while further afield Antigua,
Islamabad and Nairobi join the long-haul line-up.
Air France
Air France plans a gradual frequency increase throughout the summer period, reaching 20% of the capacity initially planned for June, 35% in July and now, 40% this month. It is planning to reach of 80% of its pre-Covid global network having flights, with reduced frequencies, during the summer.
KLM
In terms of numbers of destinations, KLM is virtually at pre-Covid-19 levels. Between now and October, KLM will be serving 91 destinations, just one fewer than the same period last year, and up from 72 in July.
Lufthansa
Last month, Lufthansa announced that Birmingham-Munich,
Edinburgh-Frankfurt and Glasgow-Frankfurt would be reintroduced in August,
while London City-Frankfurt would return in October. However, the airline has subsequently brought
forward – to 7 September – the return of the latter service.
United Airlines
United announced the return of the San Francisco route from
Heathrow this month as well as Chicago to Brussels and Frankfurt, and Newark to
Brussels, Munich and Zurich. Overall United will be serving 25% of its usual
international schedules, up from 16% last month.
Delta Air Lines
Following the reintroduction of a number of routes in July,
Delta has announced it will continue to offer a robust, connection-friendly
network in August, flying more than 3,000 daily departures and serving 239
destinations worldwide, including 206 markets in the U.S. and 33
internationally.
American
American Airlines increased domestic flights and reopened
Admirals Club lounges earlier in the summer, as well as resuming flights from
Charlotte, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Raleigh-Durham to Heathrow, from where
it now operates at Terminal 5. The
airline has also announced a strategic partnership with Jetblue which, it
claims, will increase American’s schedule to further European, African, Indian
and South American routes.
Ryanair
Ryanair will increase flights to over 60% of its normal
schedule throughout August, following what it said was a successful resumption
of services at 40% of capacity last month.
easyJet
easyJet announced earlier in the summer that it intended to increase the routes it operates to 75% of normal, in August, up from 50% in July.

Lufthansa Group airlines have released their June schedule which shows a significant expansion of their services.
Lufthansa, SWISS and Eurowings are adding numerous destinations to their flight schedules in June, as well as more long-haul destinations.
The flight schedules of Lufthansa Group airlines are closely coordinated, enabling reliable connectivity to European and intercontinental destinations.
By the end of June, the Lufthansa Group airlines plan to offer around 1,800 weekly roundtrips to more than 130 destinations worldwide.
Harry Hohmeister, Executive Board Member of German Lufthansa AG said,
With the June flight schedule, we are making an important contribution to the revitalisation of aviation infrastructure. It is an essential part of European economic power. People want to and can travel again, whether on holiday or for business reasons. That’s why we will continue to expand our offer, step by step, in the coming months and connect Europe with the world.
Lufthansa’s additional flights that are resuming in the first half of June, in Germany and Europe, are from Frankfurt, Hanover, Majorca, Sofia, Prague, Billund, Nice, Manchester, Budapest, Dublin, Riga, Krakow, Bucharest and Kiev. From Munich, it is Münster/Osnabrück, Sylt, Rostock, Vienna, Zurich, Brussels and Majorca.
In the first half of June, the flight schedule also includes nineteen long-haul destinations, fourteen more than in May. In total, Lufthansa, SWISS and Eurowings will be offering more than 70 weekly frequencies overseas until mid-June, almost four times as many as in May. Further resumption of Lufthansa long-haul flights is planned for the second half of June.
Austrian Airlines has decided to extend the suspension of regular flight operations for a further week, from 31 May to 7 June. A resumption of service in June is being considered.
SWISS is planning to resume services to various destinations in the Mediterranean region, and other major European centres such as Paris, Brussels and Moscow will also be added to the programme.
In its long-haul operations, SWISS will offer intercontinental direct services in June, in addition to its three weekly services to New York/Newark. The Swiss carrier plans to offer flights from Zurich to New York JFK, Chicago, Singapore, Bangkok, Tokyo, Mumbai, Hong Kong and Johannesburg.
Eurowings had already announced that it would be expanding its basic program at the airports of Düsseldorf, Cologne/Bonn, Hamburg and Stuttgart and gradually adding 15 further destinations within Europe from May onwards. With flights to Spain, Greece, Portugal and Croatia, the focus is on destinations in the Mediterranean region. The island of Mallorca will again be offered from several German Eurowings gateways
Brussels Airlines plans to resume its flight operations with a reduced network offer as from 15 June
Lufthansa Group issued the following advice to passengers,
When planning their trip, customers should consider the current entry and quarantine regulations of the respective destinations. Throughout the entire trip, restrictions may be imposed due to stricter hygiene and security regulations, for example due to longer waiting times at airport security checkpoints. The catering services on board will also remain restricted until further notice. In addition, passengers will continue to be asked to wear a nose-and-mouth cover on board during the entire journey.

Passengers on Lufthansa Group flights for the next four months will be required to wear face masks.
Mouth-nose covers will be a compulsory prerequisite throughout the entire journey on Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines and Eurowings flights until 31 August 2020.
Passengers are required to use face masks on Lufthansa Group flights until at lest the end of August 2020
In addition, Lufthansa Group is asking all passengers continue to wear masks at the airport, before and after the flight, wherever the required minimum distance cannot be guaranteed without restriction.
The group has also provided details of changes to in-flight procedures:
The current regulation of Lufthansa Group Airlines to keep the neighbouring seat free in Economy and Premium Economy Class will no longer apply, as wearing the mouth-nose cover provides adequate health protection. Due to the current low occupancy rate, seats will nevertheless be allocated as widely as possible throughout the cabin.
Passengers are required to wear masks throughout the flight as well as at the airport
All flight attendants on Lufthansa Group flights in direct contact with customers will also wear a corresponding mask.
Passengers are requested to bring their own mouth and nose cover. A reusable fabric mask is recommended, but all other types of coverings such as simple disposable masks or scarves are also possible. The airlines will inform their passengers in advance by SMS or e-mail and on their websites about the new regulation.
The airline group also gave information about the likelihood of transmission on its flights:
In principle, infection on board remains very unlikely. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, no concrete cases of transmission on Lufthansa Group flights have become known. All Lufthansa Group aircraft are equipped with the highest quality air filters, which guarantee air quality similar to that in an operating theatre. In addition, the air circulates vertically instead of being distributed throughout the cabin
The requirement comes in to force on Monday, 4 May 2020 and will “preliminarily apply” until 31 August 2020.

Global Travel Management has produced its third in a series of limited edition, specially-crafted beers, celebrating aspects of business travel.
Route Beer is the latest ale created by independent brewery Thurstons Brewery, based in the village of Horsell, close to Global Travel Management’s headquarters in Woking, Surrey.
ROUTE BEER is Global Travel Management’s third celebratory beer, brewed by Thurstons Brewery
Route Beer has been brewed to celebrate Global Travel Management’s long-term partnership with travel commerce platform Travelport. And it commemorates the best-known road in the United States: Route 66 or “the Mother Road”, which stretches 2,448 miles from Chicago to Santa Monica.
In 2017, Global Travel Management celebrated its twentieth anniversary with its first commissioned beer, The Globe Trotter. And in 2018, the company produced Fliegerbier, in partnership with Lufthansa.
Route Beer marks completes the hat-trick of beers brewed specifically for Global Travel Management by the award-winning Thurstons Brewery and, like its predecessors is a bottle-conditioned beer, matured by secondary fermentation.
