Lufthansa is expanding service at St. Louis Lambert International Airport.
Starting Monday and continuing through Oct. 23, the German flag carrier will operate five weekly flights between St. Louis and Frankfurt, up from the current three. Flights will now operate on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
The airline will continue to use Airbus A330-300 aircraft for the connection.
“We are deeply grateful for St. Louis’s exceptional community support over the past four years, which has enabled Lufthansa to fulfill our mission of connecting people, cultures, and economies by successfully linking Lambert International Airport and all of Missouri to the group’s global network,” Dirk Janzen, Lufthansa Group’s vice president for passenger sales in the Americas, said in a news release. “The additional frequencies demonstrate our strong commitment to this route and will further strengthen connections between the region’s world-class academic institutions and Fortune 500 companies with Europe and beyond.”
Lufthansa is the only European carrier with flights between St. Louis and Europe.
The airline serves 25 other destinations in the U.S., including New York-JFK, Washington Dulles, Atlanta, Chicago O’Hare, and Los Angeles.
