The more destinations, the merrier (for the passengers): Germania Airlines has announced the launch of regular flights from Tel Aviv to Nuremberg, Germany.
Germania Airlines began operating in Israel in March 2015, with the launch of regular flights from Tel Aviv to Hamburg. Six months later, it added direct, regular flights from Tel Aviv to Dusseldorf; and now, it will offer a third destination, with direct flights from Tel Aviv to Nuremberg, Bavaria.
The new line will begin operating in November 2017, and offer biweekly flights on Monday and Thursday. Early bird ticket buyers will enjoy fares starting at €79 per direction, with full service, and €158 for a roundtrip ticket, including taxes.
Flights to Nuremberg will serve as a connection for other destinations in Europe: Germania Airlines has recently announced the opening of a new base of operations in Nuremberg Airport. Thereby, new direct flights will depart from Nuremberg to other destinations as early as the 2016/7 winter schedule. These destinations include Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote in the Atlantic Ocean; later on, 13 further destinations will be offered, including Palma de Mallorca, Faro in Portugal, Ibiza, Reykjavík and more.
Moreover, starting next week, the frequency of flights to Hamburg will increase to three times per week. Starting on November 7 flights will depart on Sunday, Monday and Thursday.
