Lufthansa makes profit in Bucharest

German company Lufthansa is posting profit in Romania, although recording losses worldwide, as demand for flights to/from Bucharest is increasing steadily. The number of passengers flying with Lufthansa to/from Romania went up 10% in the first quarter of the year. “Given the higher demand for Romania, we have decided to increase the number of flights to three daily during the summer season, which makes us the foreign airline company with the highest flight frequency in Romania. In other words, although Lufthansa is cutting back on its number of flights worldwide, we are adding new flights for Romania,” said Klaus Fussi, Lufthansa general manager for Romania. ZF
