Lübeck in north Germany will soon see a new regional airline as Lübeck Air prepares to launch scheduled services connecting the city to Munich and Stuttgart.

Launching in June 2020, the airline has been established by Lübeck Airport and will provide regular nonstop services to Munich and Stuttgart from June.

Flights will be operated with an ATR 72-500 turboprop, which the company suggests has “proven itself for regional traffic.”

“We are creating an offer that many people don’t even know anymore,” chief pilot Tobias Oberschäfer commented. Each ticket includes a piece of baggage and hand luggage, a small meal onboard and a seat pitch of 89cm.

“As the Lübeck Air plane surprises with seating for only 60 passengers – all of them window or aisle seats,” he continued.

The airline will be located at Lübeck Airport, a privately owned airport which is currently going through the process of a terminal modernisation project with construction of an extension hoped to be finished in June. The terminal will be extended with a new waiting area and baggage claim while the old terminal has received a new look and will accomodate shops and check-in gates as well as offices and a restaurant with a large viewing terrace.

“With its own railway station and located at the junction of the A1 and A20 motorways, the airport’s connections are already excellent,” commented airport manager Jürgen Friedel. “Daily non-stop connections to the south of Germany will be a useful addition to the range offered by tour operators from this summer.”
