Frankfurt Airport winter programme

New routes to Africa have been added to Frankfurt Airport’s (FRA) winter flight network.  

A total of 82 airlines will serve 246 destinations in 96 countries worldwide. It continues to be Germany’s largest and most important aviation gateway, offering the broadest range of flight connections.

FRA’s winter schedule currently features 3,530 weekly passenger flights (departures) on average. That is 6% less than in the 2019/2020 pre-pandemic winter season but 32% more than in the corresponding period of 2021/22.  Of these, 495 flights will operate on domestic German routes, while 2,153 will serve other European airports, and 882 will fly to destinations on other continents. There will be a total of about 636,000 seats available per week, only 9% less than the corresponding figure for 2019/2020 and 33% more than in 2021/2022.

Starting in November, German airline Eurowings Discover (4Y) will launch a new route from Frankfurt to Mbombela (MQP) in South Africa. The airport serves as the gateway to the famous Kruger National Park. In the upcoming winter season, the airline will operate three flights a week from FRA to MQP with a stopover in Windhoek (WDH), Namibia. German leisure carrier Condor (DE) is also expanding its flights to Africa, once again including direct links to the island of Zanzibar (ZNZ) in Tanzania and to Mombasa (MBA), Kenya’s second-largest city. In addition, Condor is launching flights to Cape Town (CPT) and Johannesburg (JNB) in South Africa, thus complementing the existing services operated by the Lufthansa Group.
