With flights arriving in under two hours, holidaymakers can take advantage of the short hop to Bavaria’s capital and enjoy the art museums, Neo-Gothic landmarks, such as the popular Neues Rathaus (town hall) with its daily glockenspiel show, or head further afield to visit the famous 19th century Neuschwanstein Castle.

Following the gradual reinstatement of services, Lufthansa now offers a total of 87 services to destinations, including Rhodes and Turkey from Munich International for those seeking onward travel connection opportunities. From 7th September, Lufthansa will also be returning to Marseille, Gothenburg, Kiev and Sibiu (Romania), and from 5th October to Graz.

Lufthansa has been a leader in safety since the start of the pandemic and passenger safety remains top priority, particularly with regards to providing maximum hygiene procedures on board and on the ground. lufthansa.com provides the most up to date information on the new hygiene measures developed with experts, in addition to information on the adapted in-flight services, current flight schedule and flexible rebooking options.
