German airline TUI fly will station its first two Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners at Düsseldorf Airport during the winter 2020/21 season, launching routes to the Dominican Republic and Mexico.
Unlike most airline executives, TUI fly’s managing director Oliver Lackmann is as comfortable in the cockpit as he is in the boardroom. Routesonline spoke to him ahead of his participation at Routes Europe 2019 in Hannover.
Europe’s biggest carriers, including Lufthansa, Ryanair, British Airways and easyJet, will be attending the event to negotiate their future route networks.
St Helena is currently widely regarded as the world's most inaccessible inhabited island, but all this will change in February 2016 with the opening of the first airport on St Helena.
