German carrier, airberlin has announced plans to fly to both Prague and Billund, while increasing frequencies to Graz, Warsaw and Gdansk.
From April 13, 2015, the airline will operate three flights daily from Berlin to Prague from Monday to Friday as well as five weekend services, making a total of 25 weekly flights.
The airline also plans to operate a daily service between Berlin and Billund from April 13, which has been incorporated into the Berlin-Tegel hub, offering travellers numerous connection options to and from Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
“We're pleased to be introducing two new destinations in the key Scandinavian and Eastern European regions to our European route network. We're extremely satisfied with the performance of our services between Berlin and Warsaw, Gdansk and Graz, and are increasing the number of flights in line with demand. This will mean even more connection options and shorter transfer times for our passengers," said Götz Ahmelmann, Chief Commercial Officer at airberlin.
airberlin is also expanding its services between Berlin and Warsaw – which currently operates three-times-daily, to 25 flights per week, therefore consolidating its position as the market leader on this route.
From Gdansk, the airline will increase operations from two daily flights to thrice daily from Monday to Friday, as well as operating five weekend flights to increase the total number of flights from 12 to 20 per week.
Finally, Germany’s second largest airline will offer five additional weekday services between Berlin and Graz in Austria. This second daily flight will improve the options for business travellers, in particular those making connections to destinations such as Abu Dhabi, Warsaw, Kaliningrad and Billund.
The flights from Berlin to Prague, Billund and Gdansk will be operated by Darwin Airlines on behalf of airberlin using a Saab 2000. For the flights to Graz and Warsaw, airberlin will use a Dash Q400.
Last year, airberlin carried more than 31.7 million passengers, and offers a global route network through its strategic partnership with Etihad Airways, which has a 29.21 percent share in the airline.
