Condor Returns to Munich

The new winter timetable at Munich Airport is due to start on Sunday, 27 October 2013 and will remain in effect until 29 March 2014.

The airlines operating at Bavaria's international hub have scheduled about 146,000 flights for the upcoming winter season.  Travellers can choose from among 223 destinations, including 189 with scheduled services. Along with the 15 domestic and 127 medium-range routes served this winter, the number of intercontinental destinations available from Munich has now reached 47.

One of the most important developments in the intercontinental segment is Condor's return to Munich after a six-year absence. The holiday airline is celebrating its comeback with an attractive program of vacation spots served with Boeing 767-300 long-haul aircraft.

Destinations will include Mauritius, Santa Clara and Varadero (Cuba), the Mexican resort of Cancun, Montego Bay (Jamaica), Punta Cana (Dominican Republic), Mombasa (Kenya), and Goa (India). Lufthansa is adding one weekly flight to Riyadh, and will now fly to that Saudi Arabian city four times a week.

The low-cost airline Norwegian will add to the wide range of destinations available from Munich in the continental segment. It will serve the mainland Spanish cities Alicante and Malaga as well as the Canary Islands Gran Canaria and Tenerife with Boeing 737 aircraft.

A new arrival in Munich is Air Lituanica, which will depart for the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius three times a week. As of the beginning of December, Royal Air Maroc will operate three weekly flights to Casablanca. The Russian carrier S7 Airlines has scheduled four new weekly services from Munich to Moscow's Domodedovo Airport, and will now depart three times daily to the Russian capital. At the end of January 2014, to complement its extensive services to the major Atatürk airport in Istanbul, Turkish Airlines will launch a daily service to the  smaller Istanbul-Sabiha Gökçen airport situated to the south-west  of the city.
